The Kurkumama team

More than 20 nationalities work at Kurkumama, and we think that is the best seasoning a kitchen can have. Different kitchens, different stories, the same love of feeding people.

The job is easy to describe and takes heart to do: make everyone who walks in feel looked after. Water on the table, extra rice when it’s needed, and time to explain a khoresh, our slow-cooked stew, to someone tasting it for the first time.
