10 AUSTRALIAN CHEFS: Who Become Global Celebrities

It’s quite challenging to work in the restaurant industry, where customers can be challenging to please, and the hours or deadlines are highly demanding. However, a lot of chefs have established themselves in Australia as well as other regions of the world, but only a few have achieved celebrity status.

Due to Australia’s vibrant food culture and the success of reality cooking competition shows like My Kitchen Rules and Masterchef on television over the past ten years, Australian chefs are well-known throughout the world, and the country is also home to several well-known celebrity chefs. Some of Australia’s well-known chefs run restaurants with lengthy waits and have been awarded Michelin stars.

This article will introduce you to the best Australian chefs, who are well-known around the world as celebrities.

Curtis Stone

Curtis Stone was born in Melbourne, Victoria. When Curtis Stone was 2 years old, his parents, Lorraine, a florist, and Bryan Stone, an accountant, divorced.  At the age of four, his grandmother started teaching him how to cook. Stone studied home economics at an all-boys high school before beginning an apprenticeship in commercial cooking at a technical institute. He finished his Bachelor of Business degree before opting to get into the culinary industry.

Many celebrity chefs in Australia may be found on Australian TV reality shows like MasterChef and MKR, but few have the global reach of Curtis Stone, who broke into US television a decade ago. The Melbourne-born chef gained experience in London and Los Angeles as well. Curtis Stone was known for the million-dollar smile that made him one of the most marketable smiles in Australian media.

43-year-old Curtis Stone immediately rose to fame after his participation in the third season of The Celebrity Apprentice. Curtis began his culinary career at the Savoy Hotel when he was 18 years old before moving to London to work with Marco Pierre White. In 2014, he opened the Beverly Hills restaurant Maude, which is known for its superb wine and seasonal cuisine. He also owns Gwen, a classy restaurant in Los Angeles. In addition to Saturday Night Live, Curtis has been on Surfing the Menu, Dinner in a Box, Good Food Live, and Saturday Kitchen.

Pete Evans

Peter Daryl Evans, an Australian chef and former television host who served as a judge on the reality food competition My Kitchen Rules, was born on August 29, 1973. Evans has come under fire for advocating pseudoscientific diets like the palaeolithic diet and distributing false information regarding immunizations. He is a resident of Round Mountain, NSW. At the age of 19, Pete started a career as a chef and restaurateur. The now-46-year-old went on to open several nationally acclaimed restaurants and has subsequently worked in some of the best eateries in the globe. Pete is a strong advocate of the paleo diet, and his love of good health and wellness can be seen in his food. He produced and hosted The Paleo Way for two seasons, presented The Moveable Feast, and served as a judge and co-host for nine seasons of My Kitchen Rules. He just made an appearance in the critically acclaimed film The Magic Pill, which explores the effects that food can have on our bodies. Pete has also authored 14 books, the most recent of which is Heal: 101 Easy Ways to Improve Your Health In A Modern World. His other works include Eat Your Greens, Low Carb, and Healthy Fat.

George Calombaris

Chef and restaurateur George Dimitrios Calombaris was born in Australia on October 4, 1978. From 2009 to 2019, Calombaris served as one of the judges for the Network 10 program MasterChef Australia. Before he participated in MasterChef Australia, Calombaris frequently made appearances on the Network Ten daytime cookery programme Ready Steady Cook. He had several restaurants in Melbourne. The Press Club, his flagship restaurant, was selected as “Best New Restaurant 2008” by The Age Good Food Guide, and Calombaris was named “Chef of the Year 2008.” Calombaris finds inspiration in his Italian, Greek, and Cypriot ancestry.

He is one of the very few famous chefs in Australia, most well known for his work as a judge on all 10 seasons of MasterChef and his passion for Italian, Greek, and Cypriot cuisine. While still an apprentice, he attended the Box Hill Institute of TAFE and won the Bon Land scholarship in 1999. George later worked for Reserve in Melbourne’s Federation Square for two years, when he was named Young Chef of the Year. One of the “Top 40 chefs of Influence in the World” in 2004 was named George. He currently owns five eateries in Melbourne, the most well-known of which is The Press Club. He is also the author of The Press Club: Modern Greek Cookery (2008), Georgie Porgie (2011), and Greek Cookery from the Hellenic Heart. He is a co-author of Your Place or Mine? (2010) and Cook with Us (2011). (2015).

Emma Dean

Emma is a former professional athlete who competed for Australia in track cycling. She has always believed that her competitive nature helped her succeed in the MasterChef Australia kitchen and realise her aspirations of being the best chef in Australia. Emma spent her early years surrounded by hens, sheep, cows, and horses because she was raised on a hobby farm. Her mother used to milk the cow every day, and her parents raised a lot of their fruits and veggies. Emma Dean was named the series 5 champions of MasterChef Australia on September 1st, 2013. Attica chef Ben Shewry’s complex Plight of the Bees was the challenging dessert pressure test that pitted Dean against Lynton Tapp in the final round.

Dean won $100,000, a trip to some of the top kitchens in the nation, and an Alfa Romeo. Dean won a book publication contract with New Holland Publishers as part of the MasterChef award. A Homegrown Table, her cookbook, was published on December 1st, 2013.

Later Emma hosted, an Australian TV reality show My Market Kitchen for a few years where she developed a close bond with Lynton Tapp, her co-host, while they were both working on MasterChef Australia. They were replaced in 2019 by Khanh Ong, a finalist in season ten, and Elena Duggan, the season eight champion.

Adam Liaw

Australian-Malaysian chef Adam Liaw rose to fame after taking home the title on MasterChef’s second season. Liaw was born in Penang, Malaysia, to an English mother who was born in Singapore and a Malaysian Chinese father. He has an older brother and a younger sister, and he is the second of three children. At age 3, his family relocated to Adelaide. Liaw lived with his paternal grandmother, whom he credits as having had a significant influence on both his cooking and his life after his parents got divorced and his mother relocated to New Zealand. Liaw tweeted in September 2009 that he was thinking about applying for the second season of MasterChef Australia. He was listed as one of the top 24 candidates in April 2010. Despite succeeding in a competition where he had to prepare meals from famous chefs, Liaw wasn’t confident in his ability to take home the crown.

Liaw was the first challenger to be given a spot in the championship round on July 22, 2010. He was named the champion of the second season of MasterChef on July 25, 2010. The most watched non-sporting television event in Australian history is still his victory.

Liaw thought about a multitude of alternatives after winning the competition, including founding an izakaya restaurant. He later returned to MasterChef as a guest judge for seasons 4 and 6. The 40-year-old, Adam Liaw resides in Sydney, hosts the show Destination Flavour and writes frequently for publications including The Guardian, Sunday Life, and GoodFood. Two Asian Kitchens (2011), Adam’s Big Pot (2014), The Zen Kitchen (2016), Adam Liaw’s Asian Cookery School (2017), and Destination Flavour: People and Places are among the five cookbooks he has written (2018).

my fellow hospo people, do we all agree that certain combinations of staff members on shift define whether the vibe is that of the beef or the bear?

The restaurateur was only a teenager when she was ordered by her father to leave home for being gay. It would change their relationship forever – for the better.
