Meet the GG Team ...

Introducing Neil (Catering Supervisor)

Changed careers to work with Gourmet Guru Catering after more than 26 years in the Heavy Truck Sales industry, many as Sales Manager for brands including Kenworth and Western Star.

What is your role with Gourmet Guru?
"I work with the Gourmet Guru chefs at events to ensure our diners are served promptly and with a smile. We also clear tables, wash dishes and tidy up, making the meal a stress-free experience for the hosts."

Why do you work for Gourmet Guru?
"I enjoy working for Gourmet Guru as it’s a close-knit family company with old-school values. We all love to offer service with a smile and leave our clients with full tummies and smiles on their faces."

What job have you enjoyed the most while working at Gourmet Guru?
Definitely the Discounted Community Catering Program - I love the seniors in particular who love to be spoiled and have a bit of playful banter. Their genuine appreciation is something that you rarely experience these days and leaves you with a special feeling that is hard to describe.

Do you have anything more to add?
“I mean it when I say this is the only job I have ever had where I come away feeling better than I did before I got there.”

Meet Sonia and Chris 👋

Gourmet Guru Catering was a life long dream of Sonia's ever since she started her cookery apprenticeship back in the late 80s.

Over the years, Sonia has honed her culinary skills working in five-star international hotels and as in-house catering manager in some of Australia's largest corporate businesses and ASX listed companies.

Chris' experience working in the travel industry cemented his passion for memorable experiences and exceptional customer service.

In little over five years, Gourmet Guru Catering has grown from one to a full-time team of four.

Currently we're taking a short break in Bali, recharging the batteries and getting ready for another busy year.
