Secluded Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay in Oman has welcomed on board their new executive chef, Stephen Jones, who is also known as ''Chef Stevie''.

Celebrated for his exploratory palate, perhaps due to his part Australian nationality and British heritage, the adventurous yet simplistic chef will be overseeing four separate food and beverage outlets at the dramatic Musandam getaway.

Chef Stevie is known for his passion and talent, which are the two qualities that have made him a success in high-end world-class hotels.

He commenced his executive chef journey at the Aman Resorts group in 2000, where he acquired exotic tastes from Mahakua Hacienda de San Antonio in Mexico and Amankila in Bali, before moving to The Oberoi Udaivilas in Udaipur and The Oberoi Lombok in Indonesia to share his inspirational and eclectic cooking with the team.

His global orientation has landed him in Hotel Le Gray Beirut under Campbell Gray Hotels, where he shaped and delivered four stylish restaurants, while guiding the team to be at the forefront of the dining industry in cosmopolitan Lebanon.

He later moved to Montenegro to launch two historical sites of the 15th century iconic island and stately Villa Milocerat Aman Sveti Stefan.

He has also worked with the award-winning private retreat of Pangkor Laut Resort in Malaysia as well as Per Aquum Huvafen Fushi, Maldives.

With such vast multicultural exposure and mentorship, it is not surprising that Chef Stevie is an winner of the Gallivanter''s Guide Awards for Best Hotel Cuisine Worldwide.

Chef Stevie has a simplistic approach to cooking where he believes that ''less is more'' to create a flavourful and artistic dish.

He said, ''Sustainably sourced, natural, delicious with awareness on intelligent nutrition, my approach to food is multicultural and layered with influences from travelling around the world. Once the classic fundamentals are harnessed via understanding, simplicity of flavour, texture and the quality of produce, great dishes can be made simply and presented in a contemporary
manner.''

Chef Stevie''s seasoned background in celebrated niche, private and urban hotels amplifies the commitment of Six Senses Zighy Bay to present an-out-of-the-ordinary experience for those seeking tantalising and transactional meals.
