It’s Chef Saida’s Birthday!

written by The Food Lover July 26, 2017
It’s Chef Saida’s Birthday!

Hey Foodlovers! Remember Chef Saida from our Mac & Cheese post? I promised to tell you more about her and there couldn’t be a better time than today….her birthday! But first, Let’s take 3secs to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHEF SAIDA….WE LOVE YOU!

I went over to her kitchen last week and luckily she had just whipped up some magical meals for a photoshoot….of course I took pictures for you *wink*

Got her sprinkling fairy dust (edible silver flakes) on the appetizer….

Tuna and Salmon Vol Au Vent topped with lump fish caviar! Now tell me this isn’t luxury….salmon and cavier in a one bite?

Next, a fusion of two traditional meals….

Osso Bucco (Milanese) and Asaro (Nigerian) topped with Gremolata

I had to ask what ‘osso bucco’ is….she explained that it is veal shank (a part of the leg). I tried out this perfection and I wished that I was friends with a Yoruba (Nigerian tribe) lady getting married to an Italian man just so I let them know this has to be served at the wedding!

    Next is the Va-va-voom of all!

    Trio of chocolate mousse tartlets topped with handcrafted Belgian chocolate truffles and edible 24ct gold

    Yes 24ct gold! After having two of these delectable babies, all I can say is…..I could get used to this lifestyle! 

    Things you should know about Chef Saida!

    • Chef Saida Mustapha is the youngest (24years old today) Le Cordon Bleu Grand Diplome graduate in Nigeria, one of the most prestigious culinary schools in the world
    • She has a Masters degree in International Business 
    • She owns a private curlinary business and gourmet infused olive oil line called Savor by Saida
    • She recently started ‘Asake’s Shakes’….serving milkshakes and iced teas for special events in Lagos, with 10 percent of its profit going towards charity (Her parents must have known she would have businesses that need great names….Asake, Saida)
    • The Savor by Saida culinary company offers private and event gourmet catering, private chef lessons and culinary consultations for individuals and establishments

    Before I left, she had a cake moving out for delivery….I might just faint with joy if this comes on my birthday *laughs*

    I’m just going to leave her contact details here….you are welcome!

      Hi! My name is Ify Larry-Agugor and I am an amateur cook. My love for food is out of this World! I am not sure what to do with all the excitement I feel when I cook or eat out so I thought...why not share my food experiences with other people.
