	Description:		Only on the "CBS This Morning" podcast, CTM lead national correspondent David Begnaud talks with chef Kwame Onwuachi about his memoir, "Notes From a Young Black Chef." Onwuachi, who first rose to fame on Bravo's "Top Chef," shares how he managed to find success again after his highly-anticipated restaurant closed within three months. He went on to become executive chef at Kith/Kin in Washington, D.C. and won a James Beard Award this year for Rising Star Chef of the Year. Onwuachi discusses learning how to cook as a child while assisting his mother with her catering business and what two years living in Nigeria taught him about respect and the process of meal preparation. He also explains how he incorporates his family's cultural roots from Nigeria, Trinidad, Jamaica and Louisiana on the menu at Kith/Kin.
