Chef and Food Advocate Bashir Munye
Manage episode 407170868 series 3558502
Born in Somalia and raised in Italy, Chef Bashir Munye has called Toronto home for the past 22 years. Growing up in the Mediterranean, fresh seasonal foods were the norm. His approach to cooking is simple.
In this episode, he talks about his brief time in Somalia before moving to Italy at five years old and assimilating to Italian culture, only to later as an adult find his way back to his African roots and how this shows up in this work as a chef, food advocate and educator today.
