Hi Nenek Saffiah,

Hi Sofiyya,

Nenek Saffiah here. I also like to draw when I was in school. Now, I enjoy crocheting songkok (religious hat for men) for my grandchildren.

May we meet again.

For over 20 years, she ran a bustling seafood restaurant—feeding generations of families, celebrating birthdays and weddings, building a community around her cooking. Now a loving grandmother of three, Nek Saffiah still finds joy in the kitchen, whipping up old favourites for the people she loves. Her stories come with a side of recipes, if you ask nicely.
