If you don’t know him already: meet Raj, our restaurant manager.

Born in Perth, raised in Hobart. A youth spent with a love of theatre, philosophy and psychology, which, as it turns out, is decent training for a dining room.

He worked in bars and pubs first, then moved to Melbourne and started in restaurants. He’s been with us since 2018, quickly moving up the ranks to his current role.

Lately he’s gone deep on the fine teas of the world, Jura wines and Australian cheese making. But really he just lives and breathes hospitality.

Current Favorite drinks: a Gibson Martini, or a Mezcal Negroni. Still a pub loyalist at heart.
