📘 Baba’s Kitchen: Recipes from an Egyptian Dad’s Kitchen
By Mike Shaker
Take a seat at the table and experience the heart, soul, and spices of Egypt—one home-cooked meal at a time.
Baba’s Kitchen is a deeply personal and flavorful journey through traditional Egyptian cooking, told through the eyes (and hands) of Mike Shaker, an Egyptian-born, self-taught cook, dad, and storyteller.
From growing up in Egypt to moving to the U.S. after marrying his American wife, Mike’s life has always revolved around food, family, and love. After 13 years of marriage and raising a family, he continued to pour his heart into the kitchen as a proud single father. This book is a tribute to his roots, his resilience, and the dishes his kids still ask for today.
