A Little Of Chef Mo’s Story
Meet your host
Chef Mo’s culinary journey began at an early age in the heart of his family kitchen, where he learned from his grandmother and mother that food prepared with love is the most flavorful. He still vividly remembers the taste of his grandmother’s shakshuka with merguez, a dish that embodies the power of simplicity and careful attention.
As his passion for cooking grew, Chef Mo ventured into Michelin-starred kitchens, where he honed his skills in refinement and creativity.
