Bistro Moncur

Your food career began to take off in the early 90s, I believe.

It was Bistro Moncur.

You eventually became an executive chef.

I wanted to ask, where did your love of food come from?

Channel 9 were looking for their Jamie Oliver, young chef.

And at the time there was a number of young chefs.

I just happened to be 23 when I was head chef at Bistro Moncur running a two-hat restaurant under the very close eye of Damien Pignolet who was my mentor

and has been.
