Staff Spotlight What lead you to a career as a chef? The reason I pursued a career in the hospitality industry is because I really loved to cook as a child. I tried my hand at front of house work, however fell in love with the kitchen - so far I am loving it and want to continue. What is the best part about your job? The best part about my job is that I get to create new and exotic foods for people to enjoy. That and being part of a team is what I love the most. Tell us a little more about your job? I have been offered a wonderful opportunity by the Indooroopilly Golf Club to commence a school based apprenticeship. I started my apprenticeship in April this year and plan to continue until I have successfully completed my certificate III in commercial cookery. What style of food do you create at Long Pocket? I don’t have a particular style of food I create because as an apprentice I am encouraged to try everything to gain experience and to eventually find my style. What is your favorite dish to cook? My favorite dish to cook so far would have to be an upsidedown new York cheesecake, followed closely by sticky date muffins - they taste amazing and are a definite comfort food. Favourite ingredient? Definitely sugar because everyone’s life needs a sweeting up once in a while and I would want to be the one to help them with that.
