Masud is passionate about life, family, food, and the desire to always improve himself by making himself better than he was the day before. Friends with MKRSA partner Shaeem for the better part of 32 years, he entered the competition to prove to himself and those he identifies with culturally, religiously, and geographically that it is possible to achieve whatever you believe in if you adopt a positive outlook. His signature dishes are butter chicken and roti and chicken and mushroom pie. He’d love to own his own restaurant and feed the world food from the heart, packed with love, passion, and flavour.
With signature dishes of steak, escargots, and a killer crispy chicken burger, educator Shaeem dreams of owning a restaurant and having a sauce of his own design on the shelves of stores, across the country. He says his biggest strengths in the kitchen are his ability to learn – and stay calm.
