Andreas Greub – Executive Chef, GIR
Green Island Resort has welcomed Andreas (Andy) Greub as the new Executive Chef. Heading up a talented kitchen brigade of 19 including chefs and stewards, one of the first objectives of joining the Resort was to initiate and create a different seasonal menu every evening.
Not just specials, but an entire new menu, which allows and incorporates the diverse strengths of the Resort’s chefs. The menus are designed to be creative, beautiful and appetizing and have a wow factor of a lasting memory of the guest’s time on the Island.
“I have always enjoyed coming to Green Island and the wonderful surrounds of the Great Barrier Reef. Our local produce and seafood are all at our doorstep and we will bring those local flavours to the menu. Our International and Australian visitors want to experience the regional foods and I will be adapting a modern Australian cuisine with local fresh produce as the key menu selections,” said Chef Greub.
Greub is a classically trained French Chef from Switzerland and arrived in Cairns in 1982. Having worked with several leading hotels he has since 1997 worked at TAFE and then in 2005 commenced with the now called Skill 360 teaching, training and qualifying apprentices and chefs.
