Gladys Shahtou, also known as the Sudanese food ambassador, is the founder and chef of Sambuxa NYC. This is a food business located in New York City that serves sweet and savory Sudanese samosas, along with other tasty options. Gladys has been cooking since she was eight years old alongside her mother and grandmother. When she moved to America from Switzerland, she noticed the lack of representation in Sudanese cuisine, so she saw the opportunity to do something about this while incorporating her other passion in politics as well.
