Gianluca Esposto (a'Mare, Sydney) - furthering dining culture and careers

Chefs are often seen as the stars of the food world but restaurants would be nothing without waiters, managers and front-of-house leadership. We talk to Gianluca Esposto, general manager of a'Mare in Sydney. There's an emphasis on tableside skills at this large, upmarket restaurant. How does filleting a fish or making pesto in front of guests further dining culture and careers? And what would Gianluca like to change about the way hospitality anoints its heroes? https://www.instagram.com/gianluca_esposto?igsh=MWpmcnF3enEya2VpZw== SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
