I AM: Susei Ko, Service Operation Manager at LKG Hospitality (VIC Committee) |
I BECAME A COMMITTEE MEMBER TO: Become more involved in our industry and to meet and encourage a new generation of sommeliers. |
MY BACKGROUND IS: I was born in South Korea, and came to Australia to study hospitality. My first fine dining job at Vue de Monde had a great sommelier team and that’s how I got interested in, and started studying, wine. |
THE MOTTO I LIVE BY IS: Try something at least before you give up, and never regret a decision you made. |
THE PERFECT MEAL WOULD BE: Fried chicken wings with bubbles!! (Especially Champagne) |
MY GREATEST INDULGENCE IS: The 3 Cs – Chocolate, Coffee & Champagne! |
WHAT I ENJOY MOST ABOUT BEING A PART OF THE WINE INDUSTRY IS … You can drink during work!! I guess it’s called “tasting” 😊 |
