I was thrilled to have the opportunity to have a chat with chef and restaurateur extrordinaire, Guy Grossi @guygrossi for the latest episode of ExtraVirgin. (LINK to listen in bio.) Guy has carved out a distinguished career and made a significant contribution to the hospitality scene over the last forty years, both as a restaurateur and chef. In fact, in 1996, he was awarded the L'insegna Del Ristorante Italiano by no less than the president of Italy, for his dedication to presenting and promoting "La Cucina Italiana" and the Italian lifestyle. He’s written four cookbooks and has been on a slew of television programs, from "Food Safari" and Iron Chef, to "My Kitchen Rules." He also runs a small empire of highly regarded restaurants countrywide, including his flagship, Grossi Florentino as well as our very own Brisbane outpost, "Settimo." Guy and I chat all things food and hospitality, as well as Italian travel. We discuss why Italians don’t like penne lisce and the difference between fast and slow- dried pasta, what’s wrong with the hospitality scene and how the financial crisis is affecting it, as well as his favourite dishes from his Pugliese father and Venetian mother, who he'd invite and what he'd serve at a fantasy dinner party and more. Guy also gives some great Italy travel and food tips - from the Amalfi Coast to Florence and Puglia. #guygrossi #grossiflorentini #Italiancuisine #ExtraVirginFoodandTravel #settimo #amalficoast #Italytravel

Opulence was the word that came to mind on walking into the mural room @grossiflorentino last night✨ Whilst this venue had been on my restaurant hit list for a long time (it’s been serving Melburnians since 1928), it was only when I admired the artworks and felt like I’d returned to Italy when I suddenly realised why it is called Florentino 🤦🏻♀️ The exceptional Gran Tour menu is uniquely separate from the à la carte; some lovely surprises with the panzerotti acchugie and sgroppino; with a Birra Grossi from @bridgeroadbrewers and a lamb shoulder unlike any other 🤤 #guygrossi #florentino #grantour #setmenu #italian #naarm #melbourne #foodventures
A fantastic afternoon with @scottpattersonkayandburton at the @mcg Committee room, hosted by the @theluxurynetwork. We were invited to attend a lunch prepared by the amazing Guy Grossi and were taken on a tour of the impressive members' facilities, club change rooms and museum. Highly recommend the dining experience which is open for public bookings on specific days, not just restricted to MCC members.

If these walls could talk... Our murals were created by four pupils of artist Napier Waller in 1934, illustrating scenes of Florence and its surrounds.

Throwback to one week ago when we hosted 600 guests for our sold out Melbourne Food & Wine Festival culinary event - The First Supper with Guy Grossi. This spectacular evening served as its own moment to celebrate the opening of Leonardo da Vinci – 500 Years of Genius presented by Webuild. 🍽️✨ Guests were treated to a culinary homage to da Vinci's legacy: a three course Italian-inspired feast designed and introduced by iconic Melbourne chef Guy Grossi. The menu presented a blend of heritage and artistry, treating all who attended to an exquisite experience that will be talked about for months and remembered forever.
