Samuel O'Connor Cassar

Montreal

Summary

In the past four years, I have been lucky enough to work in one of the top-rated restaurants in Canada, with plenty of amazing people. This experience allowed me to learn from some of the best sommeliers I know, and to watch the most talented chefs at work. However, I hope to deepen my knowledge and appreciation as I discover what Melbourne and its rich culinary scene have to offer.
