Introducing our new chef Michael Jaeger
We are very lucky to welcome Michael Jaeger to our team at The Cumberland. This year The Cumberland has won various awards at HMAA and the Murrindindi Tourism Awards and know that the addition of Michael to our management team will ensure that The Cumberland continues to achieve recognition for its excellent service, ambience, facilities, accommodation and food. Both leisure and corporate guests of The Cumberland have enjoyed wonderful food over the years; Ruby's restaurant is renowned as one of the best restaurants in the area and uses local fresh produce and offers the guest a memorable dining experience. We know that Michael will impress both our repeat guests as well as our new clientele.
Until recently, Michael was Executive Chef at venue which caters for up to 100 + guests for all meals and accommodation, and is situated in the heart of the Yarra Valley, a world renowned wine growing region, 50km east of Melbourne. He also recently worked as a casual chef at Badgers Brook winery restaurant - Bella Vedere Cucina, acclaimed this year in the The Age Good Food Guide as well as Gourmet Traveller.
Previously, Michael worked as a casual chef at another nearby venue, during which time the kitchen team were awarded chef's hats in The Age Good Food Guide.
Michael was also teaching apprentices and other students for a few years before working at Sacrebleu where Michael was able to rekindle his love of classic French cooking.
During the past 28 years Michael has been fortunate enough to work with and learn from some great chefs and bakers, and these skills, techniques and attitudes developed over the years, have been invaluable assets towards his success as a chef.
Michael's kitchen philosophy has always been to raise the standards of those he works with, rather than lower his own standards to fit in. Michael tries to always exceed the expectation of guests. During his 28 years cooking, he has worked in many kitchens - from fine dining à la carte restaurants, to banquet or high-volume pubs as well as resorts and nightclubs, and enjoyed conquering the challenges that the variety offers.
