Chef Tonne Khabir, senior partner of Bobsaith Consulting LLC, developed a passion for cooking at the tender age of 13, and has been stirring things up for the past 25 years. Specializing in creating and catering delicious low-fat, Middle Eastern, Creole-influenced dishes with an East African, kosher style, neo-soul twist, Chef Tonne believes that Americans have moved away from fresh. “We need to get back to fresh foods!” she states matter-of-factly. Hailing from Kansas City, MO, Chef Tonne was handed the cooking ladle by her retired, executive chef grandmother. While studying organizational communications at the University of Kansas, Khabir was afforded the opportunity to professionally train in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
