The Man Behind Settimo

Born and raised in Melbourne, to migrant parents, Guy's understanding of hospitality began at home. His parents always provided an abundance of food, celebration, and generosity around the family table. Working closely alongside his father, Guy began cooking professionally at a very young age. He continued to hone his skills at some of Melbourne's most renowned venues before opening his own in Armadale in 1986. Since then he and his family have successfully owned and run numerous venues contributing to the multicultural fabric of the hospitality industry in Melbourne.
Currently, operating Grossi Florentino, Ombra Salumi bar, Arlechin, and Garum, Guy, and family continue to provide genuine Italian food in Brisbane and across Australia.
