Chef Warren
Australian born and raised in New Zealand Chef Warren was brought up in the kitchen environment helping, in those early years his father cater for the farm hands and shearers or processing the abundant produce made available on a sheep station along the Canterbury Plains.
Breaking down whole hogget carcasses, preserving a vast array of fruits and vegetables for the winter months, catching fresh seafood where the Hurunui River meets the Pacific Ocean or even brewing his own ginger beer Warren’s love for cooking grew.
Warren went onto doing formal training in Auckland and traveled extensively throughout New Zealand and Australia working in resorts in remote locations where he developed a rustic country style from using locally fresh ingredients.
Taking this knowledge, Chef Warren worked for 7 years in South East Asia obtaining skills and techniques using provincial Asian flavors and styles and infusing them with his own.
Warren now comes to us in Innamincka Hotel to get back to a small country town setting working with the best that South Australia has to offer developing menus where Adelaide meets the Outback to coincide with the newly furnished Outamincka Bar as an oasis along the Outback Loop.
