I’m Palestinian, born in Jordan, raised in Austria, lived and worked over 10 years abroad, in London, Zagreb, Frankfurt and currently calling Zurich my home. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to collect all those life experiences as I like to see them as an essential part of my "home coming”.
It´s the past years that have sparked my culinary journey back to my cultural origins. Looking back on my younger teens, there were a lot of mixed experiences and emotions I had to deal with. As every teenager, all you want is just to fit in and to not be any different from anyone else.
Funny how life plays out - Now here I am, sharing the cultural richness of the world of foods to the table.
Since a young age, I have found pleasure in cooking and have continued this passion and spoiled my little family to this day, every day. Since I have had my child; food has become an even more important aspect of my life, that is full of conscious choices to not only nurture but to integrate also a variety of aspects like 100% natural ingredients, seasonal vegetables, farm-to-table, sustainable local food sourcing and supporting local farmers, micro businesses & manufacturers.
