Melba Wilson, 20th Anniversary Cultural Awareness Salute Gala Special Presenter


“I was born, bred and buttered in Harlem” – Melba Wilson, Melba’s restaurants

   Melba’s Restaurant owner and longtime BCA Global supporter has been named among special presenters at the upcoming 20th Anniversary Cultural Awareness Salute Gala. Melba entered the culinary business at Sylvia’s Restaurant under the direction of Sylvia Woods. The experience that she gained at Sylvia’s birthed partnerships with renowned restaurateurs such as Drew Nieporent and Robert DeNiro of Nobu, Montrachet and Tribeca Grill; and Godfrey Polistina of Carmine’s, Virgil’s, Cesca, and Quest Restaurants.

     Even though you are likely to find her on national and local news channels and cooking shows that include The Today Show, Good Day NY, FOX 5 and the Food Network’s ‘Throwdown! with Bobby Flay,” Melba has not forgotten the neighborhood that “born, bred and buttered” her. Melba  supports and donates to many causes such as AIDs, Diabetes and Illiteracy.  She also takes time to help Community Outreach organizations throughout Harlem, and regularly donates her time to the students of BCA Global.

Come out and support Melba and the BCA at this years 20th Anniversary Cultural Awareness Salute Gala!
