A message from our Chef Momo:

"Hello, I’m Momo. I’m the eldest son of a Palestinian father and a Syrian mother, I have six siblings who I love dearly. We grew up as Palestinian refugees in Daraa, a lovely city in southern Syria, which is also where the revolution started.

I later studied veterinary medicine in Hama city but unfortunately had to flee Syria right after I graduated. First, I had to cross illegally to Turkey; it was one of the hardest experiences I’ve ever had to face, especially as I was alone. At one point, I thought it was the end. Surviving and successfully crossing gave me faith and a confidence in myself I didn’t realise that I had!

I went on to live in Istanbul, Turkey for three years until I finally came to the UK in mid-2019 through the UNHCR resettlement scheme. After losing my father, my ambition became following in his footsteps and continuing some of his unfinished dreams, that’s why I’m working on establishing a Syrian cheese making business; just like the enterprise that he had when I was still in Syria. I’ve always loved cooking ever since I was young. I used to experiment in the kitchen ever since I can remember. I’m always interested in exploring new flavours and trying new recipes.

I believe that cooking is caring, dedicating your time and effort in making an enjoyable meal for your loved ones comes from the heart. I genuinely express my feelings and love through cooking. If you’re my friend, then you know I’ll have prepared something delicious for you every time we meet.”
