EXECUTIVE CHEF – JENNIE TRESSLER
Executive Chef, Jennie Tressler is the creative inspiration at the helm of First Edition Bar & Dining. Jennie has combined her passion for produce and often forgotten techniques to create a diverse menu catering to all tastes whether it be enjoyed on your own or shared amongst a group of friends.

Following an illustrious culinary career starting out at the age of five under the direct of her Nan and reflecting on her times of owning her own trattoria in Italy whereby produce was sourced daily from the local markets, Chef Jennie credits her passion for using fresh farm produce to create unique plates that inspire her team to share in her culinary passion whilst paying homage to local farmers and producers. Jennie’s food is honest and creates a feeling of nostalgia, constructed from memories of times and places throughout her life and childhood which also resonates with all those that dine.
