Have you ever just happened to be scrolling through Instagram and scrumptious foodie shots just come up on your feed? Yup, happens all the time! We thought we’d take a look at some of our locals who have a special touch in the kitchen, love creating delish dishes, and would make great chefs. Keep reading. You won’t be disappointed.

1. Jon Camilleri

You’ve heard of Jon before – the mastermind behind the Facebook page Ch-EAT that creates cheat-worthy dishes for your naughty meals. One of his latest creations was a classic remake of McDonald’s Big Mac, which he named Mac Hobza. Genius, right?

2. Tamara Webb

The Instagram Queen shares mouth-watering recipes that mainly involve sweet treats (naughty ones and healthy ones cos #BALANCE, am I right?). She even hinted at possibly releasing a recipe book, and we can say we’d be the first in line to buy it!

5. Anthony Aquilina

Jesus take the wheel! Not only does Tony make his own curry, he even makes gluten free naan bread. We think we could cry right now. Excuse us while we compose ourselves and wipe away the drool.

6. Kurt Calleja

Local singer Kurt Calleja is known to have a passion for cooking and has even put his skills to the test on TV. Fusing Asian and Maltese food wasn’t an easy task but he did a fab job.

BONUS: Sarah Micallef

Our very own GuideMeMalta editor is AMAZING when it comes to baked goods. From cake pops and cupcakes to cheesecakes and tiered cakes, Sarah’s baking is the BOMB. We’re her guinea pigs and we’re totes not complaining! #Triedandtested
