Khufu’s Chef Mustafa Seif Makes History at Best Chef Awards

Chef Mostafa Seif of Khufu’s restaurant has become the first Egyptian to earn 'Excellent' status at the Best Chef Awards in Dubai. Seif was awarded one knife at the event tonight on November 6th, as part of the awards’ newly introduced tiered system.

The Best Chef Awards, which annually ranks the top 100 chefs globally, was hosted in the Middle East for the first time this year. For the eighth edition of the Best Chef Awards, the traditional numerical ranking system was replaced with a tiered rating, where chefs are recognised with one, two, or three knives to signify their level of excellence.
