Biography: George Mullen, Head Chef at Royal Randwick
George Mullen joined the ATC twenty years ago as a casual chef. It wasn’t long before he was promoted to the role of Executive Sous Chef and then finally to Executive Chef in 2000. Prior to working for the ATC, George was Executive Chef at the Swiss Grand Hotel, Bondi Beach for five years.
George describes his personal cooking style as Modern Australian with a Classic European twist. Currently he is working on the food offering for all of the Sydney Spring Carnival days including the a la carte menu and seafood buffet extravaganzas at The Stables restaurant and the corporate suites.
From caviar to meat pies, George Mullen is a chef with many different hats. He is responsible for all things food at the Australian Turf Club – from the Chairman’s Club to the retail outlets and everything in between. What he loves most about the ATC is the passionate and driven team he works with and having had the opportunity to watch the club evolve over the years into what it is today. Plus there are always new challenges around the corner to keep him on his toes. The fact that he lives only ten minutes away is just an added bonus!
