While I was writing about my cultural, culinary and personal experiences in Yes, Chef, I was embarking on yet another journey by cultivating a new line of specialty tea blends called AMBESSA. AMBESSA, which is Ethiopian (or Amharic) for ‘lion’, not only represents strength, pride and independence to the people of Ethiopia, it also represents my voyages around the world and the life journey we all take everyday. I take great pride in sharing this piece of my story with you.
