Recipes for its Debut Cookbook

Featuring recipes from America’s most acclaimed chefs and celebrating 250 years of

American cuisine

WASHINGTON, DC – July 27, 2026 - After more than a decade of telling the stories of

the world's greatest chefs, Chef’s Table is opening an exciting new chapter. Today, the

team behind the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series Chef's Table announces the launch

of pre-orders for its first-ever cookbook: The American Table.

Created as the official cookbook for America’s 250th birthday, The American Table

features recipes and stories from the country's most celebrated chefs, celebrating 250

years of American cuisine through the people, traditions, and flavors that continue to

shape it. The American Table will serve as a culinary time capsule of the United States.

Curated by the Chef's Table team alongside Jamila Robinson, editor-in-chief of Bon

Appétit and Epicurious, The American Table explores American cuisine as a story of

migration, memory, reinvention, and hospitality. Featuring recipes from some of the

nation’s most acclaimed chefs, the collection captures how America cooks today while

preserving the flavors and stories shaping its future.

"American food is defined by a relentless spirit of reinvention and shared culture," said

Justin Connor, President of Chef's Table Projects. "To mark America's 250th milestone,

we are celebrating the extraordinary chefs and communities who are writing the next

chapter of American cuisine. It’s an honor to bring this vision to life by sharing this

defining collection of nation-wide recipes in our new cookbook for you to experience at

home."

"To cook in America is to speak a vibrant language of creativity and tradition," said

Jamila Robinson, editor-in-chief of Bon Appétit and Epicurious. "This book reveals the

beauty, brilliance, and diverse minds behind the country's most renowned kitchens."

Chef’s Table fans and culinary enthusiasts can reserve their copies immediately. The

American Table is available in hardcover. It retails for $75 and is available now for pre-
