Aheda's Kitchen
Born in Halhul, Palestine, Aheda has been immersed in the world of cooking for as long as she can remember. She honed her skills as a chef in her homeland, where she also ran her own successful catering business. Many of her cherished recipes are lovingly passed down from her grandmother and mother, reflecting the vibrant flavours and traditions of Palestinian cuisine.
Now based in Brunswick, Aheda shares her passion for food with the community through her food truck, which opens every Saturday at 15 Hope Street.
Her approach to cooking is guided by two essential principles. The first, a treasured aspect of her culture, is to cook with your hands—a practice that connects the chef with their ingredients. And the second is to cook with love, a belief that every meal is an expression of love for another.
