Restaurant Manager
Carianne Zsibrita
I joined the company in 2017 as a waiter and worked my way up from there. I love the challenges of my job – working with such a fun and diverse team is so rewarding. Lussmanns is such a great place to develop your career and I’m really proud to work for a company that focuses so much on sustainability and always trying to improve on what we do.

Head Chef
Stephen Rogers
I am a local Hertford lad, spending the majority of my life in this historic county town. I have worked for Lussmanns for the last four years, since returning from a year-long stint travelling in Australia. I moved up to senior sous chef quickly, helping out in other Lussmanns sites regularly during my first year, and was subsequently nominated for Chef of the Year.
Friends always told me when I was young that I should be a chef, and although it was never originally my intention, I found myself falling into the industry in my early twenties, after originally studying animal management at university. Strangely this background and interest in animal conservation was what influenced my decision towards joining Lussmanns: due to their strong ideals with regards to sustainability, using local produce, and the dedication to having a strong, MSC certified fish menu.
