Chefs' kitchens

written by Stephen Crafti ; photos by Catherine Sutherland ; foreword by Matt Preston

inside the homes of Australia's culinary connoisseurs

Be inspired by this unique and visually stunning book, which takes a behind-the-scenes look into the home kitchens (and gardens) of 22 of Australia's celebrity chefs. Notable mentions include Frank Camorra (MoVida), Brigitte Hafner (Graceburn House & Tedesca Osteria in Red Hill, on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula), Tony Niccolini (Italian Artisans), Scott Pickett (Estelle, Matilda, and Audrey's in Sorrento), and of course many others. Featuring fabulous, inspiring conversations with each chef in their personal living spaces, while they are preparing a meal in their stunning kitchen, and with a close look at their kitchen's architectural design, and garden style, this book celebrates not only some of Australia's finest chefs, but also the architects who make these chef's kitchens a pleasure to work in. The chefs and architects answer important questions, such as what makes a great kitchen as much as a great meal; what makes these kitchens unique; what are some of the less obvious things that need to be addressed in a kitchen design; what is the range of fresh produce, i.e. herbs and spices, as well as vegetables that is best planted in a successful kitchen garden; and so much more
