Organizer
I grew up in Aden, Yemen, once a renowned sea port celebrated for its enchanting blend of African, Indian, and Middle Eastern cultures. My journey with cooking began at the age of 12, after my father’s passing, to help support my family. In the ’90s, I moved to London and spent 30 years there. Now, I am based in Dubai, driven by a passion to introduce my guests to the rich culture, food, and history of my heritage. There is so much more that unites us than divides us.
