You’ve heard noodlies food blog rave about SBS Cafe and it’s chef, Ashraf Saleh before. He’s responsible for so many wonderful creations at cafe@SBS including the popular and mouthwatering Portuguese chicken panini below.
Ashraf is versatile, inventive, experienced and passionate, receiving glowing reviews in many feature articles over the years. He has created menus for fine dining restaurants as well as modern “pub and cafe“style environments.
