After extensive training in the field of hospitality management and countless hours in the kitchen, Zahi and his wife Penny took their skills with them to open the famous Kazbah On Darling in 1998.

The dynamic duo and their team were a force to be reckoned with receiving accolades from Restaurant & Catering Australia/NSW and appreciation from culinary peers. The popularity of Kazbah inspired a second and third venue; Kazbah Top Ryde and Kazbah Darling Harbour.

Zahi’s insatiable pursuits to provide exemplary food and service have sent him around the globe to represent Australia, most notably in Dubai and Hong Kong.

His restaurants have appeared regularly on Channel 7’s Sydney Weekender, SBS Food Safari & Sydney International Food Festival.
