Graham Neilson has taken over the reigns from Carly Goncalves, who has sold his award-winning 9th Avenue Bistro in Morningside, Durban, and is heading for Perth with his family.

Graham had worked with Carly for three years – most recently at Fordoun Hotel and Spa in the Midlands.

The new chef doesn’t plan to turn the menu on its head in the near future and will still be whipping up those firm Bistro favourites. Good luck Down Under, Carly!
