Meet Marsia Taha Mohamed, Latin America's Best Female Chef 2024

Описание: During a decade of success at Gustu, Marsia Taha Mohamed was named as one of the young people shaping the future of gastronomy as part of 50 Next, voted as Latin America’s Rising Star Female Chef 2021, and has now achieved the accolade of Latin America’s Best Female Chef 2024, as part of Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants, sponsored by S.Pellegrino & Acqua Panna.

Running the kitchen as head chef, and eventually executive chef, at celebrated restaurant Gustu in La Paz since 2013, Taha decided it was time for a change and a new challenge. Her first solo project, Arami – meaning ‘“shard of heaven’” in Guarani – will open in the trendy neighbourhood of Achumani, in the south of La Paz.

It’s a project Taha has been thinking about for a long time. Her passion for showcasing Bolivia’s bountiful produce runs deep. “Inspiration never starts in a restaurant or in a kitchen, where I of course love to be. My inspiration comes from outside. Nature gives me ideas, gives me creativity. And of course, nature gives me new products and new flavours.”

Hear from Taha as she talks about how Arami aims to showcase the huge diversity of Bolivia, with a focus on the relationship between the country’s Andes mountains and the Amazon rainforest.
