Sam Clark

Chef Sam Clark's culinary roots trace back to his grandmother's kitchen, where farm-to-table cooking shaped his enduring philosophy of stunning simplicity. After leading prestigious kitchens including Cable Bay Vineyards and Clooney in Auckland, he and his family established the now two-hatted Central Fire Station Bistro in Hawke's Bay. Named 2023's Best Regional Restaurant at the Cuisine Good Food Awards, Clark continues to craft uncomplicated seasonal dishes that celebrate local produce in a beautiful Art Deco setting, cementing the restaurant's position as a standout in the region's dynamic food scene.
