About Carnation Kitchen
Hi, I'm Kate Caire, Food Director at Carnation Kitchen.
Some of my earliest cooking memories are sitting on a bench in one of my father’s restaurants ‘helping’ prep.
It started a lifelong passion, at times an obsession, and ultimately a career.
It was also my father who instilled my love of travel.
Hi, I'm Kate Caire, Food Director at Carnation Kitchen.
Some of my earliest cooking memories are sitting on a bench in one of my father’s restaurants ‘helping’ prep.
It started a lifelong passion, at times an obsession, and ultimately a career.
It was also my father who instilled my love of travel.
A love that has taken me on an eating fest across the globe.
From village fare in Italy, ramen in bustling Tokyo, and – my personal favourite – my step mum’s Indonesian home cooking in Java.
My search for good food continues.
Twenty years in hospitality, both front of house and back, at some of Hobart’s busiest cafes and restaurants, have fed my passion and my passion to teach others.
From café to fine dining, my wealth of knowledge flows throughout the entire industry.
