About Macro Simmer

Macro Simmer was created by Yassin EL FQUIR, founder of Macro Simmer and a food entrepreneur from Agadir, Morocco.

From restaurant management to hands-on cooking

Yassin spent years working in restaurant management in Agadir, surrounded by chefs, restaurant operations and food-service teams. When COVID-19 forced restaurants to close, that work stopped. During this period, chefs he had previously worked with helped him develop practical, hands-on kitchen experience.

He then started a healthy-food dark kitchen from home. The concept later expanded into Bowl Healthy Food in Agadir. In 2022, he continued experimenting with food concepts and launched another project, Carrot Think Food Think Us.

Why protein-focused food matters here

Yassin has also had a long-standing interest in strength training and bodybuilding. That naturally led to a personal interest in food, nutrition and protein-focused eating. His restaurant experience, kitchen training, healthy-food projects and everyday approach to cooking eventually inspired Macro Simmer.

What Macro Simmer is for

Macro Simmer focuses on practical slow cooker meals, protein-focused food, simple ingredients, meal prep and low-effort cooking that fits real everyday schedules. The guiding idea is simple: More Protein. Less Effort.
