Chef Maurice Levene, better known online as “Chef Moe,” doesn’t just teach people how to cook. He teaches them how to survive inflation. The 43-year-old, Brooklyn-born chef has amassed more than 647,000 TikTok followers in just five months by showing viewers how to stretch a few crumpled dollar bills into hearty family dinners — often feeding four or more people on budgets as low as $5 or $10.
