Growing up in a Cantonese household where her parents owned and managed several successful Chinese restaurants, chef Deborah Lowe was brought up by her maternal grandmother, who kept herself busy in the kitchen, preparing delicacies that retained the authentic flavour of Cantonese cuisine. Inspired by her grandmother’s love for cooking, chef Deborah cultivated a deep sense of pride and appreciation for the rich Cantonese flavours that permeated her kitchen and would often recreate her grandmother’s tasty Cantonese dishes for her children. Chef Deborah loves cooking for her family and friends and prefers making meals from scratch, keeping in mind her grandmother’s philosophy to cook from the heart. Chef Deborah is now a cooking instructor who runs private cooking classes.
