"It took a while for my mom to be proud of me" ... I instantly cried. Thank you for that. Many don't know that a fact. We all meet our greatness at different ages. And we have more than one great moments. For some they come later in life.
I had the sincere pleasure of working with Chef Marcus Samuelsson at the Minneapolis location of Aquavit (closed 20 years ago) His nurturing management style was instrumental in making me the chef I am today. I can clearly see his style, influence, techniques and family style teambuilding in the eyes of the incredibly talented Chef Fariyal.
That is cool to hear. All we hear is how toxic culinary world can be. It is nice to be reminded that there are people in the business who are doing it right.
Absolutely love her personality, and how much she actively helps others out. You can tell that she's a good boss, everyone seems on the same wavelength and like they're happy to be there doing what they do.
Not only is she beautiful, intelligent and talented - she seems like such a great leader. I can't wait to come here and support all these amazing people.
As a Swedish Ethiopian mulatto myself, I really appreciate this video. Marcus Samuelsson is kind of a patron saint of Ethiopians in Sweden, and it really warms my heart to see the influences being carried over by him and Chef Fariyal. Much respect to Bon Appetite for representing one of the smaller, but more unique cuisines out there
I love the diversity, inclusion, and representation all wrapped into a luxury designed ethnic restaurant. I would love to eat here someday, the people and food appear lovely and refreshing.
Chef Fariyal was amazing! The breakdown of stations, roles, logisitics, cost managment, diversity in teams, uniform and morale, and joyful communication with each of the staff members was refreshing. It reminded me a little of my time working at Disney before returning back to New Orleans, but even more natural. She definitely could have her own show, personality, look and insight of DEI leadership in high end culinary in major cities; I loved it! Every aspiring restaurant should look at this video for training on workflow. Great job Bon Appetit!
Love, love, LOVE to see these sisterwomen brining so much needed love to the professional kitchen. How healing this food must be. And shout out to Marcus Samuelson for being mindful enough to make this happen.
It's refreshing and fun to watch someone who genuinely loves and shows passion for what they do. What an amazing Exec Chef who is sure to continue to make her mother prouder and prouder, this video shows a bonafide professional at their craft who is also star in the making!
I’ve watched this video at least 6 times. It’s so heartwarming and inspiring to see a crew made up of incredibly passionate POC! I’d love to dine there the next time I’m in NYC!!
This is why America is one of the Best Food Countries in the World, because they allow other countries & cultures to express themselves onto a plate. The flavors of Ethiopia & other parts of Africa with a Modern American Seafood setting, you can’t help but to be inspired by that.
She is spectacular!!! Engaging and beautiful! This was the best I’ve seen this far. She really gave insight on how a kitchen runs and showed how every member of the team is important!!!
I second what everyone’s saying on here, I’d love to see more people like chef Fariyal on cooking shows, just look how happy everyone in the kitchen seems! :)
That is so cool that you guys have almost zero waste. So creative. I love imagining a future world where this is the default and not an exception that needs pointed out
I like her she seems down to earth and personable. A lot of chefs on these shows seem overly focused and professional (which is not bad at all!) just nice to see an executive chef who talks to the camera like shes talking to a close friend.
her energy is so palpable and engaging. love love the vibes! this is clearly a person who's so grounded in their history and culture as well as in love w what they do
If I'm ever in NYC I'm definitely gonna try and make it here. I tried Ethiopian food awhile back and was blown away by some flavors I've never tasted before. Looks like a team of great people too, love the energy! Great job to everyone at Hav & Mar
This was interesting. I always wondered what an executive chef did. Other things I noticed, love the diversity of NYC. The working atmosphere was friendly, focused and fun and she’s a natural in front of the camera and beautiful!
Wow! What an excellent kitchen she runs - all with great enthusiasm and a beautiful rapport with everyone working with her! I could watch her again and again! She's totally infectious and a wonderful example of the best kind of leadership...
This woman is nothing short of phenomenal! I love trying new food but I’ve never had Ethiopian food before, although it is on my list of things to try. My excitement has been reignited! Thank you for sharing your craft with us. You are a master! 🍛
Chef Fairiyal jegna nesh betam love the setting and how you interacted with your team. a Proud Ethiopian here & you make us proud kiddos to you and the team Looking forward to visit the US soon.
loveeee the 0 waste and ethnic aspects of the restaurant. ash oil is so cool, and the obsidian color is brilliant! also the restaurant being run by only women of color is sooo inspiring. kudos to everyone on the team
The most important this in this video to me was her going over the labor costs with the cfo on a weekly basis. Not mastering the business aspects is why most small restaurants fail.
WOW ! Fariyal, YOU ARE AMAZING !!! And we see how your colleagues love and respect you so much ! We clearly can see why . AND THE TALENT BEHIND HER TEAM !!! Tell your mom I said she was absolutely wrong ! 😅. You are living your gift ! You bring so much of her and your roots to feed our souls.❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. I can't wait to get back to N.Y. so I can enjoy a meal at this restaurant. LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU ALL !
It's nice that you experimented with a little Haitian cuisine as well. Djon Djon is primarily used for our infamous Haitian black rice. Marcus also has an amazing restaurant in Newark, NJ called Marcus BP. I'm pretty certain Hav & Mar is just as amazing. I can't wait to check it out!
@davidhandel5894 Your comment is so, kind so thoughtful, so warm, so encouraging and so very necessary. Surely, if this executive chef has seen your comment, I know she DEEPLY appreciates it.
Wow! what an awesome showcase!! a huge thanks to Chef Abdullahi for sharing her restaurants day-to-day! You run an amazing and tight ship! A big shout out and congratulations to Chef Samuelsson on his beautiful restaurant. This showcase is by far the best one I've seen so far! And the fac that it's an all women of color ran restaurant is sooo dope!! Chef Abdullahi has a beautiful soul and it shines through in her cooking and technique. Just beautiful all around! Thanks again, be well, be safe and Cheers!!!
People like maria is what keeps those restaurants running strong. Prep cooks are the backbone!!
Don't forget the diahwashers yo. Those mf's go hard too.
@@srs-xe0n238 dishwashers are the heart and soul I swear
yuppp
Absolutely
Ole !
I love how the prep team is supervised by an older spanish lady! Finally a higher end Resturant showing how a normal NYC kitchen is like.
I bet she likes Martikas Kitchen!
Is this a sarcasm or a commend? Cause I don't understand.
@@eriylpixeloff3134 nah it's true, not just in NYC either
Any normal kitchen anywhere in the US normally has a older Mexican person supervising haha.
Yes her kitchen/staff is inclusive
“She did that like a pro!”
On camera compliment and a positive one. Can’t have an interview go better than that.
I love the atmosphere she's created for her entire team. Looks like a fun and supporting vibe. She's a solid leader.
💯 ♥️🙂
I love her ENERGY!! She is so good with the camera. She can EASILY be a host of her own show
She rehearsed this sirca day 1 it seems! it was her time to 💫shine💫
Seems she's even better with people, and even nicer with the food lol
manipulator 🖤
If Mark iz her boss..and she's featured on here...im sure it's in tha making😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
She grazed on over the “she sees me on tv so now she can brag about me” bit, but as an immigrant as well I felt that in my SPIRIT.
Also the environment in her kitchen seems so familial. I love it. (I know that’ll go out the window once the night starts lol)
It's so rare to see such an enthusiastic executive chef these days. Love how they make use of the scraps to make an oil, very creative and innovative
I doubt you meet that many executive chefs lol. Weird comment
@@washedupwarvet2027 They presumably meant in similar online interactions like this or in cooking shows/documentaries, given this is also an online interaction. Lol
She needs her own show better personality than most people on the food network channel in my opinion
good thing it was just your opinion 😂
@Doc Holiday @Rocketman Yous not got anything better to be doin?
Nah!!
@@otterbot9806 They do not.
Thinking the same thing!
It is rare to see someone so professional and focused being this charming at the same time. Great personality .
"It took a while for my mom to be proud of me" ... I instantly cried. Thank you for that. Many don't know that a fact. We all meet our greatness at different ages. And we have more than one great moments. For some they come later in life.
I felt that statement so much

I love that’s a women rise up feminism Perfect right we’re I love it in the kitchen ❤🎉
I think chef marcus could do a better job at Paying people a livable wage. The PAY Scaleay for working at his establishments are very low
What a powerfully positive comment!!!
Wow, beautiful story … thankyou for sharing
Absolutely love her personality, and how much she actively helps others out. You can tell that she's a good boss, everyone seems on the same wavelength and like they're happy to be there doing what they do.
She's like a Pixar character, so cute and talented and her energy is on point.
Not only is she beautiful, intelligent and talented - she seems like such a great leader. I can't wait to come here and support all these amazing people.
Fact
HER ENERGY AND HOW SHE TREATS HER TEAM IS EVERYTHING!!!!! ADORABLE!!
I am touched by her personality, you can tell how much she respects her team. Just wow!!!
Love her energy. You can tell she loves what she does
As a Swedish Ethiopian mulatto myself, I really appreciate this video. Marcus Samuelsson is kind of a patron saint of Ethiopians in Sweden, and it really warms my heart to see the influences being carried over by him and Chef Fariyal. Much respect to Bon Appetite for representing one of the smaller, but more unique cuisines out there
I don’t think he’s mulatto
You're not a mulatto. You're a beautiful blend of races.
He's mixed white - Swedish - and black - Ethiopian, what used to be called a mulatto in the US
@@curtisthomas2670He's not mixed. He was adopted by Swedish parents. He is 100% Ethiopian.
@@9roselove9
Wrong term to use to describe mix race person, Politically Incorrect!!
OMG!! Love Chef Fariyal!! She def needs her own show/space! Very full of LIFE, LOVE for her Culture and PRIDE! Her mother should be proud!!😍🤩
the fact I watched every second of this vid... Chef Fariyal fosho needs her own show, her personality is so welcoming.
Always love watching chefs have so much fun with their jobs
They seem like the type of group to have drinks with
yes it is!
I'd recommend @Munchie's "Chef's Night Out" series. Not the actual experience of drinking with them, but it shows the experience.
i LOVE her personality. That convo with her mom, lol so lovely and relatable.
I love the diversity, inclusion, and representation all wrapped into a luxury designed ethnic restaurant. I would love to eat here someday, the people and food appear lovely and refreshing.
Same!
Agreed! Even though it’s an Ethiopian restaurant I saw some Latin influence in there as well. Great menu with a diverse kitchen
Nah.
'Inclusion'? lol
@@stratocaster1986able need a dictionary?
as a fellow ethiopian I was brought to tears watching this because she made me so proud!!

Yes!
You can tell she’s really passionate about what she does. Her and her team exude good energy. Would definitely love to eat here.
Getting an inside scoop on what happens in in a kitchen of a restaurant. Makes me realize how technical these incredible dishes are.
It's refreshing and fun to watch someone who genuinely loves and shows passion for what they do. What an amazing Exec Chef who is sure to continue to make her mother prouder and prouder, this video shows a bonafide professional at their craft who is also star in the making!
She is the best PR and advertising this restaurant can deliver.
I’ve watched this video at least 6 times. It’s so heartwarming and inspiring to see a crew made up of incredibly passionate POC! I’d love to dine there the next time I’m in NYC!!

Incredibly dumb comment. They HAVE TO ALLOW other cultures and countries to influence their food because they have no culture or history
This is fascinating to see. We love to see more content like this.
I agree with you. I had no idea
She has so much energy and passion. I love her!!
I loved this. Her energy is amazing and inspiring.
She is spectacular!!! Engaging and beautiful! This was the best I’ve seen this far. She really gave insight on how a kitchen runs and showed how every member of the team is important!!!

I love the diversity, you can tell people are loving to bounce off each others cultures
She is AMAZING! Would love to see more of chef Fariyal in the future
I love her. You can feel how much respect and love her staff have for her also. Wishing great things for her
I like her she seems down to earth and personable. A lot of chefs on these shows seem overly focused and professional (which is not bad at all!) just nice to see an executive chef who talks to the camera like shes talking to a close friend.

Perfect example of an executive chef doesn't have to be mean or crucial to run a smooth and productive team and kitchen!!!
i love her personality, her energy, and that headband make her look so freaking cute..
If I'm ever in NYC I'm definitely gonna try and make it here. I tried Ethiopian food awhile back and was blown away by some flavors I've never tasted before. Looks like a team of great people too, love the energy! Great job to everyone at Hav & Mar
See how she supports her staff. Very mindful, very demure, very professional
13:35 Facts. Loving the energy. I'd show up to New York and eat at her restaurant just because of her energy.
I love when young passionate chefs bring positive energy into the kitchen. Hav & Mar will definitely be on the top of my list when I visit NY again!
That's me perfectly. "How did you learn Spanish, I didn't, that's the extent of it" lol.
I could listen to her explain things forever. I love her pacing and enthusiasm.
This was interesting. I always wondered what an executive chef did. Other things I noticed, love the diversity of NYC. The working atmosphere was friendly, focused and fun and she’s a natural in front of the camera and beautiful!
Captivated. As a self taught sous chef. She is a stand out and the team spirit and collaborative support is felt.
Wow! What an excellent kitchen she runs - all with great enthusiasm and a beautiful rapport with everyone working with her! I could watch her again and again! She's totally infectious and a wonderful example of the best kind of leadership...
You can tell she is really passionate about what she does, love her energy!
I love how she incorporate Ethiopian spices in her foods! I can’t wait to come visit and eat! Hopefully I get to meet her❤
What a strong woman, organized, clever, great chef (in both ways)...
This woman is nothing short of phenomenal! I love trying new food but I’ve never had Ethiopian food before, although it is on my list of things to try. My excitement has been reignited! Thank you for sharing your craft with us. You are a master! 🍛
She got the best vibe! Her enthusiasm and passion are infectious! The Black girl magic is awesome!
This woman just introduced me to the concept of a "hand hug." So VERY awesome! I am thankful and happy about it. 😊
How does she not have her own show?! Just epic. Seriously… she’s awesome
Fariyal had me so captivated, I didn't want it to end!
her love and passion for the craft and cuisine shine through in her personality , love it !
This girl needs her own show!!!
LOVE HER!! I've never watched any of these things and could not look away for 18 minutes! I learned so much hahaha
This is a masterclass on how to run a kitchen. She is awesome.
Chef Fairiyal jegna nesh betam love the setting and how you interacted with your team. a Proud Ethiopian here & you make us proud kiddos to you and the team Looking forward to visit the US soon.
really loved this. she's so personable and their team seems like they really get along. would love to visit Hav & Mar soon!
all the best Che Fariyal!
she is sooooo charismatic and charming
loveeee the 0 waste and ethnic aspects of the restaurant. ash oil is so cool, and the obsidian color is brilliant! also the restaurant being run by only women of color is sooo inspiring. kudos to everyone on the team
It was literally ashes on a plate. Calm down my guy 😂😂😂
$15 plate to eat ashes 😂😂😂
And Brilliant use of Ash Oil! Love that its being known to everyone.
The most important this in this video to me was her going over the labor costs with the cfo on a weekly basis. Not mastering the business aspects is why most small restaurants fail.
WOW ! Fariyal, YOU ARE AMAZING !!! And we see how your colleagues love and respect you so much ! We clearly can see why . AND THE TALENT BEHIND HER TEAM !!!

I can't wait to get back to N.Y. so I can enjoy a meal at this restaurant. LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU ALL !
Wow she is so kind and assertive at the same time!
Definitely needs her own show to share Ethiopian cuisine with the world. I like listening to her.
This was the best representation of chefs I have ever seen and the fact she kept the same energy throughout ❤ she is valuable
This woman is INTERESTING and charismatic! I enjoyed watching this SO MUCH!
Loved her personality and energy. People like her are what elevate a dining experience.
She has a great personality. She needs her own show!!!
I’d eat here just to support such an awesome leader like this young lady! She is amazing!
"i think my mom would add more" something i can relate to everytime i cook 😂
She’s incredible! As someone who’s favorite food is shiro and also loves noodles, I was got so excited when I saw the Umi’s udon dish.
I can't get enough of these inside videos. She was incredible
I love this energy!!! I wish I could've worked at this restaurant so much love and teamwork!!❤
It's nice that you experimented with a little Haitian cuisine as well.
Djon Djon is primarily used for our infamous Haitian black rice.
Marcus also has an amazing restaurant in Newark, NJ called Marcus BP.
I'm pretty certain Hav & Mar is just as amazing.
I can't wait to check it out!
Love watching these kinds of videos, so interesting to see how the kitchen works
So cute, so professional, so young, so productive, so talented, so passionate...

Chef Abdullahi is the epitome of "lead by example". Well done.
Such a beautiful video!! Happy to see the three women chefs holding it down.
Did anyone else read this title in Stefon's voice? New York's hottest restaurant is... this place has everything!
😂😂yes I did!
Loving the diversity in the Kitchen!!!
I adore her and it is so beautiful seeing the team she has supporting her.
Wow! what an awesome showcase!! a huge thanks to Chef Abdullahi for sharing her restaurants day-to-day! You run an amazing and tight ship!

Fariyal is so cute! I could watch her talk food all day
That menu is so diverse and eclectic
Her and her whole team are amazing. Like wow
Aaaw I love that’s she’s a young black woman leading! And leading with confidence😍😍Go guuurrll🙌🏾🙌🏾
Love it. Truly a realistic view in a day of the life of a chef.
I feel like artists and creatives need to learn these management skills and the balance and skill of both is insane.
Watching her teach how to deconstruct that lobster was amazing. She's a natural leader
Oh she is a star. Definitely needs her own show!!!!!!
