Egyptian Chef & Singaporean Wife Sell Fusion Roti John & Kebab At Hawker Stall In Chomp Chomp
How did a self-taught Egyptian chef end up selling chicken kebabs and roti john at Chomp Chomp Food Centre? According to Ahmed Said Elsayed Mohamed, it’s all thanks to his habibi (Arabic for “my love”). “I’ve always loved cooking but it was my wife who encouraged me to share my food with more people,” says the first-time hawker who’s in his 40s. In April this year, Ahmed opened Habibi’s Kitchen with his Singaporean Chinese wife, Queenie Tan, who’s in her 50s. She helps out at the stall in between her job as an event host. The stall serves kebabs, roti john and an original invention called roti bomb (more on that later) with chicken, beef or egg and cheese fillings.
