In an interview with Kenya Diaspora Media, Webale said he works daily and has little time for breaks, considering the high bills abroad.

What's the cost of chapati in Canada?

Webale disclosed that to supplement his income as a mechanic, he makes chapatis and samosas in the evening and gets up to 100 orders daily.

He sells each chapati at $2.50 (KSh 323).

"When I came to Canada, I did a course in engineering, but since my passion was cooking, I went back to the kitchen. I secured a job washing dishes and cooking at a local hotel. I worked in different hotels, and when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the hospitality industry took a blow. So I reverted to working as a mechanic," he explained.
