I never really got the chance to reflect on my role as a and Gold from Europe UKsالذهب الأحمر من أوروبا قطرeuropeuk for the past two years , although it takes up a significant part of my time, sometimes all my week.
It’s almost the second year into this exciting project promoting , and yes it’s hard work but I’m learning a lot and appreciate the experience I’m getting so much .
Actually my relation with them go back to my years in UAE where I joined other campaigns with them as an influencer. I still remember my first cooking demos in Dubai Expo and Abu Dhabi SIAL.

In this campaign as a consultant, we proudly hosted four successful press dinner events in Qatar, London, Southampton, Manchester; along with amazing cooking demos that I personally participated in wearing my chef hat this time. Also, I’m coordinating influencers participation with delicious recipes across four countries. And of course, sharpening my translation skills as I translate almost weekly English content in to Arabic. Currently, we are working on 4 fabulous press trips to Italy that will involve foodies from UK, Qatar , Saudi and Bahrain.The Guild of Food Writersthe opportunity and for the wonderful team especially Pete and Manuela for the outstanding work ethics and support.
Here are some more photos from awards which we proudly joined as sponsors for the third year.

An with Hekayyatna for the books ! I’m a huge fan of Hekayyatna community work here in London and extremely impressed with its founder the superb along with her team . When I saw their post about this exciting supper club I made sure to join and it really was a memorable experience on many levels. The venue was very intriguing to say the least , The Egyptian Exploration Society a quite old building yet charming immersed in the glory of history. The menu was definitely well thought out as it had to be from ingredients that existed in ancient Egypt so even if the dish has evolved over time , it had to be presented in its ancient version along with enriching storytelling by Zeina and AL for every dish, which was really fascinating. A big shout out for Egyptian chef Seyouf Kitchen - Chef & Muncher for the menu choices and the perfect ex*****on for those dishes, especially the world renowned Egyptian Baladi bread which I could not stop eating throughout the entire meal.
Loved the conversations around the table and the strict rules to navigate socialising efficiently with almost everyone. I found it clever, humorous and made a lot of sense.

Great job Hekayyatna 👏👏✨✨

Had the best time ever yesterday on the Headline Stage cooking my Aubergine and Beef Fattah in a truly wonderful chef with . I also happened to host the lovely cooking demo as well which was a wild experience but turned out to be great!

The crowd was amazing and they truly loved and appreciated flavours . My Fattah was just gone in minutes and the feedback was truly phenomenal. You will be seeing more Fattah platters in surrey for sure now.

It was also very special to finally me and chat with him about work , food and his upcoming press trip with . And of course catching with my lovely friend Sunia and sharing the stage with her in her demo was another highlight for that fabulous day in spite the rainy weather.

Huge thanks to Lauren and Charlie .xuto who looked after me at the back stage and made this demo happen.

My personal highlights from last night .
Meeting and sharing a very beautiful conversation about Egypt and my work with the iconic Egyptian food legend Claudia Roden. It meant a lot to me how she was interested in my work and related a lot to my new product of Egyptian Sablé .com_uk . I even showed her the Montazah Palace reel too ! Then of course meeting another middle eastern icon who received the Lifetime Achievement Award and I was really moved by her speech referring sadly to the war in her home country . I was lucky to have her sitting just infront of me the whole ceremony, a perk of being a sponsor ! , this time the whole team were there last night. It felt very special to have Mr. Giovanni and his lovely wife Francesca , as well as Manuela and Richard , Pete and beautiful Francesca .

As always fantastic job by the committee especially our beloved Julie Friend@kentcooking . Loved seeing her and our lovely chair on stage .

Congratulations to all the winners especially and .

Always so nice to see and catch up with fellow foodies .ibrahim .wing.dofe.cookery .wren and many more.

I’m sharing this reel today not to promote my new business .com_uk but to give you a glimpse of the charming world of the great . A world I luckily grew up in and still carry it within my heart and soul. I think what drove me the most to this is to show my London community another side of Egyptian cuisine. A side I’m most interested in and relate to as well. Alexandria has been an ancient cosmopolitan hub and this of course has been reflected in its culinary heritage, as well as the whole of Egypt. We didn’t just replicate influences, traditions and food. We actually curated something different and made it our own.
Like these Sweet Stacks we call them Sablés in Egypt while they are completely different from the French Sablé biscuits the world knows. In Alexandria, more specifically next to this iconic Montazah palace where the original Sablé bakery was there and where I spent every summer from childhood to adulthood, and it’s where most Egyptians relate to Sablé as something authentically Alexandrian- hence the beautiful packaging that I’m immensely proud of with an abstract of this gorgeous palace .
This is the beauty and the strength of Egyptian cuisine with many staples that share interesting history of fusion with unique and clever creativity. I always see that this part of deserves more recognition, it’s simply the food Egyptians eat regularly and enjoy in their opulent famous banquets. Egyptian cuisine can’t be reduced to molokhia and koshari . Egypt is much more than this, a cultural hub from ancient time which excelled in leaving its mark and curating the most delicious food in the world. I have the honest feedbacks of my guests whom I host at my home and I always feel a bit frustrated that they only get to try this food at my home as they would not find in any restaurants. I’m still adamant and hopeful that one day a very special book by me about this side of Egyptian cuisine will come out in which I share my Alexandrian heritage as well. For now I trust that these Sablés biscuits .com_uk will be an eye opener for now.
Enjoy the video 🙏✨🇪🇬
