Anna Simamora

I am a professional chef and I have been very lucky to have been able to cook, travel and live in some of the most incredible locations around the world – the Caribbean, Bhutan, The Maldives -with the luxury boutique hotels and resorts group COMO, http://www.como.bz

I started my apprenticeship at Sydney’s reowned Italian restaurant, bel mondo. cooking under the watchful and guiding eyes of Steve Manfedi and his mother Franka, a true inspiration to the passion of cooking. I then went onto the richly endowed Rockpool group – Neil Perry. It was at Rockpool restaurant I was given the wonderful opportunity to train under one of Sydney’s finest dessert chefs, Catherine Adams.

Along my journey of cooking I have learnt how to make food subtle with balanced, clean flavours, finishing with a punch!

My philosophy on food is all about flavour and texture, using seasonal produce, with an emphasis on sustainability and strong support for our local providors!

So please follow me on my journey!
