O’Reilly’s Canungra Valley Vineyard Manager Tamil Mani and Chef Paula Sproul were on hand to receive the award at the industry event.

 

“A lot of dedication and hard work goes into winning this award!” Mani said.

 

“We are a small team and we work hard but it has paid off!”

 

Mani was quick to offer an opinion on what the signature dish of the Vintage Restaurant is.

 

“I like Chef Paula’s Beef Pie!”

 

“Everything is made in house and I think the pie is Paula’s signature dish!”

 

Chef Paula, who won O’Reilly’s 2017 employee of the year commented on the award win by saying, “It’s a beautiful feeling, we are very proud!”.
