New York City has long been regarded as one of the culinary capitals of the world, and the city’s prestigious Michelin star ratings serve as a benchmark for exceptional cuisine. In a historic moment for the city’s food industry, Chef Charlie Mitchell has become the first Black chef to earn a Michelin star in New York.

Mitchell, who serves as the head chef at Brooklyn’s “Carla Hall’s Southern Kitchen,” has made waves in the industry for his creative take on classic Southern cuisine. His innovative dishes and dedication to quality ingredients have earned him widespread acclaim, and his Michelin star is a testament to his hard work and talent.

In an interview with the New York Times, Mitchell spoke about the significance of his achievement, saying “It’s a great accomplishment for me, but it’s also an accomplishment for all the young cooks who look like me and need someone to look up to.”

Mitchell’s success is particularly significant in light of the underrepresentation of Black chefs in the Michelin star rankings. According to Eater, just 8% of chefs who have earned Michelin stars in the U.S. are Black.
