In this deeply heartfelt episode, Chef James Knight Pachecco celebrates the life and legacy of the late Chef Greg Malouf, a true pioneer in modern Middle Eastern cuisine. Over the weekend, the culinary world lost an icon, and in this special tribute, Chef James reflects on the incredible impact Greg had on chefs and food lovers around the globe.
From his co-authorship of eight influential books to his role in bringing Middle Eastern flavours to the global stage, Greg was more than just a chef—he was a visionary and a mentor. This episode revisits personal stories, tributes from industry peers, and Chef James' own memories of interviewing Greg in 2021. During that interview, Greg’s kindness, humour, and wisdom left an indelible mark on Chef James, who fondly recalls their conversation about food, travel, and life.
Join Chef James as he raises a glass to Greg—his favourite Negroni—and invites listeners to do the same, in remembrance of a man who changed the culinary landscape forever.
"Thank you, Greg, for your kindness, your brilliance, and the memories that will live on."
