Davide Occhiuzzi, Restaurant Manager

Whittlebury Park luxury hotel and spa, situated in rural Northamptonshire, has announced Davide Occhiuzzi as the new Restaurant Manager for its award-winning 3 AA Rosette Murrays restaurant.

Davide began his career in his native Italy, gaining experience in a variety of chef de rang roles.

He then relocated to Paris, Dubai and later London, where he worked in a number of high-profile establishments, including as floor manager at the then newly opened Demoiselle Galvin in Dubai and one-Michelin star Galvin la Chapelle in London where he was head waiter.

In his new role, Davide will be responsible for the operation of Whittlebury Park’s fine dining restaurant Murrays, which was recently awarded its third AA Rosette.

The intimate and elegant Murrays is led by talented head chef Harvey Lockwood, who specialises in using local and in-season produce from the surrounding Northamptonshire farms and suppliers for his modern British menu.
