Chef Melba Wilson was born and raised a New Yorker (or as she puts it, "Born, bred and buttered in Harlem"). She proudly represents Harlem as one of the most successful African-American women in the restaurant and catering business. Her namesake restaurant, Melba's, reflects that pride, as does her new cookbook: "Melba's American Comfort: 100 Recipes From My Heart to Your Kitchen."
