i 10

Bringing Flavor, Faith, and Food to the Forefront

In today’s digital age, halal food isn’t just about dietary guidelines—it’s also about community, creativity, and culture. One of the voices leading this movement is @HalalBitesDaily, a popular Instagram and TikTok influencer with a following of over 300K foodies worldwide.

We caught up with Amina Khan, the face behind the brand, to talk about her journey, her favorite halal eats, and what inspires her to keep sharing delicious content with the world.


🧕 Who Is Amina Khan (@HalalBitesDaily)?

Amina is a 29-year-old digital creator based in Toronto, Canada. She started sharing her halal food adventures on Instagram during the pandemic—and quickly built a loyal following. Her page is known for:

  • Honest halal restaurant reviews

  • Easy-to-follow recipes with a desi twist

  • Halal travel guides

  • Engaging Reels and mini-vlogs

She’s also collaborated with major halal brands like Saffron Road, Zabiha Halal, and Eat Real.


🍽️ Q&A with Amina Khan

Q1: What inspired you to start Halal Bites Daily?
Amina: Honestly, I was just trying to find good halal food spots in my city and realized there weren’t many reliable reviews from a Muslim perspective. So I started sharing my own food finds, recipes, and reviews. I didn’t expect it to take off, but people connected with it—and here we are!


Q2: How do you decide what to post?
Amina: I think about what I’d want to see. A new halal burger joint? I’ll try it and give an honest review. A viral recipe trending on TikTok? I’ll “halalify” it. I also listen to my followers—many are students, moms, or busy professionals looking for simple, delicious halal food ideas.


Q3: What’s your go-to halal comfort food?
Amina: Biryani. Always. But lately, I’ve been obsessed with halal Korean-style wings. Sweet, spicy, crunchy—perfection!


Q4: Any advice for someone who wants to become a halal food content creator?
Amina: Just start. Use your phone, share your passion, and be authentic. Consistency is key. And always remember—it’s not just about food; it’s about serving your community and representing halal in a positive light.


Q5: What are some of your favorite halal brands or restaurants?
Amina:

  • Naan & Kabob (Toronto) – their kabob platters are 🔥

  • Saffron Road – for frozen halal options

  • Meat & Bread (NYC) – amazing halal sandwiches

  • And shoutout to all the small, family-run halal eateries—they keep the soul of halal food alive.


📲 Life Behind the Scenes

Amina’s content isn’t just pretty pictures—she’s deeply involved in community work, including:

  • Hosting halal food pop-ups with local vendors

  • Donating meals during Ramadan

  • Educating her audience on halal labels, tayyib food, and ethical sourcing

She’s proof that a food page can be fun and meaningful.


🔮 What’s Next for HalalBitesDaily?

Amina is working on her first e-cookbook, collaborating on a halal-friendly meal planner app, and planning to launch a halal foodie tour in Southeast Asia in 2025.

“Halal food is global, diverse, and exciting—I just want to show people that one bite at a time.”


💬 Final Thoughts

Amina’s story is a perfect example of how halal food influencers are shaping modern Muslim identity—through creativity, inclusivity, and of course, amazing food. If you’re looking for inspiration, recipes, or halal eats in your city, give @HalalBitesDaily a follow.
