I was watching an old epsiode of a Cook's Tour and was interested in Donovan Cooke's cooking. Some searching has found that the restaurant(Ondine) he and his wife were at is now closed. Where are they now ?
What ever happened to Donavon Cooke ?

I think he is chef de cuisine at the Derby, which is one of the restaurants at the Hong Kong Jockey Club, and Philippa Sibley is pastry chef at Circa in Melbourne ... but perhaps someone has more recent news of either.

Yes, he's chef of the Derby Room at the HK Jockey Club. Ate there a couple weeks ago - it was very good.

Donovan Cooke got a mention in Marco Pierre White's autobiography, as did Curtis Stone.
Funnily enough, Shannon Bennett didn't get a mention (so maybe he wasn't one of Marco's boys as he hinted in his "My Vue" cookbook
)
