MEET CHEF KHURSHIDA

I never dreamed of being a chef.

My inspiration was bringing people together with good food. I had heart-warming memories of my mother cooking when I was a child in Bangladesh. As a young person in the United States, I experienced the incredible tradition of gathering over a meal at Thanksgiving. Even Ramadan, when everyone fasts all day, ends with breaking the fast and family and friends enjoying a meal together. Food unites people and I wanted to be part of bringing people together.

I had been doing public speaking for 15 years but needed a change. I wanted to do more to bring people together. My cooking had been mostly limited to my family and friends. In 2016, I started catering and it was so healing for me and others. I put my heart and soul into the cooking, and it showed. It was great to see the happy people enjoying the food and using it to nourish their bodies while gathering with families, friends, the community and co-workers to nourish their souls.

Food is a powerful tool that ASHHO uses to unite people, make difficult conversations easier, and make our community better
