Tuesday briefing: Will the Red Sea crisis lead to a wider Middle East conflict?
Even though Ebru Baybara Demir’s career as a chef started by chance, she has developed a formidable reputation. Despite societal obstacles, her restaurant was an instant hit in a small part of south-east Turkey and brought money into an area with the highest unemployment rate in the country. Local residents began asking Demir (pictured above, left) about her commercial success and started following suit, opening restaurants, hotels and shops, and attracting people from Turkey and beyond to enjoy the tastes of Mesopotamia. Tourism in the area grew from a few thousand visitors a year to a few million today. Not only has Demir won the 2023 Basque Culinary World prize for her outstanding cooking, she has expanded what she does, now overseeing humanitarian initiatives by employing refugees in food production and teaching them culinary techniques as well as sourcing and reviving heirloom grains for cultural preservation. “Food is not only for taste. Food is a tool for change,” says Demir.
