I have always had a keen interest in various world cuisines because i grew up in a family with well travelled parents. My main focus is on traditional ways of cooking, particularly that of North Africa, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, Central Asia and South East Asia. I began working at a Vegetarian Indian Restaurant at Laguna Beach, California in 1987 and have been involved with catering and teaching ever since. In recent years I have also taught on occasion at Prue Leith Chef Academy. I am a traditionalist, so you won’t ever catch me cooking anything fusion, rather teaching exact recipes the way they have been taught for centuries. I love to share my knowledge and experience of various ancient cultures with people. I have travelled to Morocco on many occasions and always had a strong connection with the land and its people, maybe its the Sephardi Jewish connection on my fathers side. I spend my time teaching various ethnic cuisines at peoples homes in Johannesburg - when I am not travelling to exotic destinations....
