He was the executive chef and joint creator of Fish & Co. The sustainable seafood restaurant in Sydney from 2010 -2015.

Tom has been consulting the team of chefs at Pinetree’s on Lord Howe Island running intense flavour workshops and demonstrations to inspire their daily menus. Pinetree’s has just been voted as the No.1 hotel in Australia on TripAdvisor two years in a row.

Food @ the muse is a blast.’
Guy Dimmond Time Out London Food Review

A dazzling side dish, which is an object lesson in how to put together a salad.
This food screams freshness originality and sensuality and is served up with love intelligence and sunshine. Blow me away talent from a chef who is going far.”
