From a mother’s kitchen: Maha’s

from Scratch · host Sam Jen

Maha’s story begins with a passionate, hardworking mother whose cooking was so good, even the family dogs ate better than most people. After immigrating to Canada, she couldn’t find food that felt like home - so with encouragement from her kids, she turned her natural talent into a restaurant unlike any other.In this heartfelt conversation, we talk about the joy and chaos of running a family business, what it means to look out for each other as a collective, and the way food can anchor identity and belonging. And of course, we couldn’t leave without talking about their legendary grilled cheese - because when it comes to cheese, there’s no such thing as too much.Follow the podcast on Instagram and TikTokFollow Sam Jen on Instagram
