Head Chef Richard Ptacnik has a keen sense of Italian cuisine even though he hails from the Czech Republic. Richard began his career in Prague working with Zdenek Pohlreich at the Radisson SAS Hotel. After stints in both Germany and Switzerland, Richard headed to Australia where he worked briefly with Jock Zonfrillo before joining the ranks at Otto Ristorante. He quickly moved up to the role of James Kidman's Sous Chef and has spent the last 5 years working with James to continually evolve the food.
Richard took over as Head Chef in late September 2009 and we are very excited to be able to watch him and his enthusiastic kitchen team take the food to a new and exciting level.
Richard says "My mission at Otto is to let the freshness of the produce and the quality of the ingredients do the talking".
After your meal, choose from a range of fresh espresso Allpress coffee, assorted Penelope Sach or T2 tea, and an extensive list of Italian and Australian Dessert Wines.
