Brandon Chrostowski- American Chef (Ep.24)

Brandon Chrostowski, a Detroit native with a turbulent youth, was granted a second chance at life at 18 when a judge chose probation over incarceration. That pivotal moment set the stage for the founding of EDWINS.

EDWINS is more than just a restaurant—it’s a mission-driven enterprise dedicated to transforming lives. By providing former inmates with an intensive culinary training program, EDWINS equips its students with essential life and professional skills, empowering them to build brighter futures after graduation.

Chrostowski’s vision has grown beyond the flagship restaurant. His culinary impact now includes EDWINS Too, a restaurant and culinary incubator; EDWINS Butcher Shop; and EDWINS Bakery and Diner. Each establishment not only serves up high-quality, affordable cuisine but also uplifts the Cleveland community, offering second chances that are as inspiring as they are delicious.

**Breaking News! Edwins and Edwins Too are moving to the Nightown Complex in February 2025!
