Meet Mark Best and Shane Osborn – two Australian-born chefs who have scaled the heights of fine dining and proved remarkably agile, having made 180-degree turns in their decades-long careers.

Best, 54, closed his three-hatted bricks-and-mortar Surry Hills restaurant Marque in 2016 to take on consultancy work, and Osborn, 49, closed his two-Michelin-starred restaurant Pied a Terre in London to move to Hong Kong, initially to open St Betty for restaurateur Alan Yau.
