Tariq Hanna

BACKGROUND

To say chocolate is in his blood is not far from the truth. Growing up in Nigeria, a mere stone’s throw away from the national cocoa processing plant, the aromas of roasting beans always filled the air.

Upon graduating from high school at 15 in England, Tariq moved to Detroit in order to become the next great architect. Surprisingly, Tariq found himself in culinary school at Oakland Community College. It was here that he realized his true potential. While focusing on savory cuisine, Tariq dabbled in pastry arts, soon discovering his passion.

Upon graduation, Tariq soon opened his family owned pastry and catering shop in Northville. Here, he was able to stretch his imagination and experiment with influences of his childhood travels, and the overwhelming influence of his greatest culinary mentor, his mother Rita. It was at the Northville Gourmet that Tariq began receiving the first of many local and national awards.

After six years of successful self-employment, Tariq was offered the opportunity of a lifetime, as Detroit’s first casino pastry chef, coupled with the chance to work under a Certified Master Chef, Michael Russell. In 1999, MotorCity Casino opened to rave reviews for its food service. Through Chef Russell’s guidance, Tariq completely immersed himself in all things pastry. Tariq not only began taking every class that time would permit, but also discovered his true love of teaching and competition. In 2004, Tariq was invited back to Oakland Community College as an adjunct pastry instructor and coach for their competition team.

During his tenure at MotorCity Casino, Tariq participated in several ACF competitions, as well as several appearances on Food Network Challenge. Placing in every competition he ever entered (including a ‘Best of Show’) Tariq saw no boundaries to his possibilities.2004 saw Tariq hitting his stride, being named

ACF Central Region Pastry Chef of the Year, and runner up National Pastry Chef of the Year.

After Seven years at MotorCity Casino, Tariq joined forces with New Orleans native and restaurateur Joel Dondis, to create the first of its kind pastry experience in post-Katrina New Orleans. Sucré opened its doors in spring of 2007 and exploded on the local culinary scene. After only 6 months, Tariq was named 2007 Pastry Chef of the Year by New Orleans Magazine. In 2008, Tariq was a finalist for Chef Magazine’s Chef of the Year. The accolades came fast and furious for Sucré, but Tariq maintains that it is due to great balance in a partnership and more so, a passionate, dedicated and inspired team with which he is surrounded by at work and at home, that keeps it fun and fresh every day.Fall of 2010 will see the opening of Sucré’s second location in the New Orleans area, establishing a new style of great Louisiana desserts from the greatest food city on earth!
