Vittoria Coffee is proud to be the principal sponsor for the Good Food Guide Awards 2010 for the 10th consecutive year, which were held on Monday 7th September at Carriage Works, Eveleigh. The event also marked the SMH Good Food Guides 25th anniversary.

Vittoria is proud to have 4 clients receive the highest recognition of three hats and congratulates est., Marque, Pier and Tetsuya’s on their fantastic achievement. 

Vittoria would also like to congratulate Mark Best of Marque for his Chef of the Year Award and Rockpool Bar & Grill for winning Best New Restaurant.

Special congratulations goes to Mr John (John Hemmes) who is the recipient of the Vittoria Legend Award.  Mr John is a self made entrepreneur. Although his initial success was in the fashion industry, the 70’s saw his restaurant recognized as one of the best in NSW by Leo Schofield. He has such a diverse history in the hospitality industry and been successful in so many different areas. Today, he and his family have 3 hat restaurants, clubs, hotels, bars and a variety of other restaurants. Mr John has made an outstanding contribution to Australia and the Industry
Vittoria Coffee continues to supply more Sydney Morning Herald “Hatted” restaurants than any other brand of coffee.  Included in this years’ awards were the editor’s picks for which we are extremely proud of Ash St Cellar who won Favourite Wine Bar.
