Andrew Giles – Executive Chef

We are very excited to announce the appointment of Mr Andrew Giles at ANEW Hotel Hilton, as the Executive Chef.

Andrew has an impressive 20-year journey, of following his passion of food, which involves traveling around the world, and cooking for many people from all walks of life.

One of his career highlights are owning and managing his own restaurant. Especially living in the Natal midlands, he has a heightened appreciation for farm to table food. Being able to showcase the local bounty of an area is very rewarding to him, which we cannot wait to taste.

He has also been awarded with recognition from the international slow food community.

Andrew is best described as determined, hardworking, hands-on and organized. He enjoys creating an energizing work environment where the team are always learning and improving.

When Andrew is not cooking up a storm and playing around in the kitchen, you will usually find him, knee deep in the garden, with his clivias, orchids and succulents. He truly enjoys permaculture gardens and slow food. He loves catching some sun and he is most fulfilled being outdoors and travelling.

We look forward to the many beautiful and wholesome dishes you have in store for your patrons. Andrew has started on the 11 October 2021.

Please join me in congratulating Andrew as he takes on this new chapter in his culinary career.

Welcome to the ANEW Family Andrew !!!!
