Samira Effa

Huddersfield born Samira is back to compete for the third time, after losing out to Tom Anglesea in Series 14, and leaving prematurely in Series 15.


Samira started her career in Yorkshire, at Bradley’s restaurant in Huddersfield, and has a wealth of experience having worked at Bohemia in Jersey, 21212 in Edinburgh, and Alimentum in Cambridge.


Samira is currently working at EightyEight, an Asian fusion restaurant at Grantley Hall in North Yorkshire. After being in the industry for over 17 years, she is still learning and evolving her food style.


Born to an Iranian mother and Nigerian father, her experience of food and cooking whilst growing up was incredibly diverse. She likes to draw inspiration from her upbringing and the places she’s worked whilst creating her menus.
