Culinary Specialties:

Mary’s journey to the world of food is littered with memories of sitting around the table with aunties and uncles from every part of the world. Her Egyptian family moved to Southern Africa around the time she was born, and food was one of the main ways they stayed connected with their roots. Growing up in a small but vibrant North African and Middle Eastern community meant that she was exposed to all the diversity of the region, while also finding her way with her own local spin on things. In her adult life she moved to the South of France where she’s been finding and experiencing all the Mediterranean connections and variance to use in her cooking.
Mary has her own small food business and has been a food writer and recipe developer for years. Her work appears in Gastro Obscura, Kitchn, Eating Well, Serious Eats and more.
