About The Chef

My name is Paul Friedman and I like to think of myself as just an ordinary guy who has had a lifetime love affair with food and the fortune of having owned and operated 58 restaurants in South Africa, Europe and the United States. I grew up in what was known as the Transvaal province of South Africa, they called it the land of the Xhosas, one of the major ethnic tribes in this part

of Africa. Together with fellow N'guni peoples, the Zulu. They make up the majority of the South African population.There are another seven or so different tribes in the area ranging from remnants of the Khoi-San people to the Ndebele, Tswana, Swazi and Sotho peoples.
