Curtis Stone wears many hats, but keeps his feet firmly on the ground.
Chef, restaurateur, cookbook author, reality TV-food show host and judge, culinary consultant, creator of cookware and appliance ranges… there aren’t many corners of the F&B world that Curtis Stone hasn’t explored and mastered. The multitalented, affable and towering Stone has come a long way from his Surfing the Menu days. He’s the owner of Maude, a Beverly Hills restaurant that has won much accolades, and co-founder of Gwen Butcher Shop and Restaurant in Hollywood with his brother, Luke, and also a devoted dad to two boys. He returns to Australia in November 2017 for the Margaret River Gourmet Escape 2017 in Western Australia.
