Tarik learned to cook when he lived alone for three years as a teenager in college. He remembers how horrible the first meal he cooked for himself was and was determined to improve. With help from his mother, Tarik learned to cook delicious and healthy, balanced meals for himself. On the phone with his mother he noted down phone family recipes passed down through generations in their family!
Tarik now loves cooking for friends and is an expert at making traditional Moroccan tajines. In addition to cooking, Tarik is passionate about music - he is a member of the choir, and cares about living a well-balanced life. He used to work in insurance and now invests his time in activities that help his community and environment. He looks forward to hosting travelers at home to showcase traditional Moroccan cuisine and culture!
