about me

I’m Annabelle Cloros, a Sydney-based editor and communications expert with over 14 years of media experience.

I have spent over eight years as managing editor of Hospitality magazine, Australia’s leading foodservice trade title, where I cover everything from independent cafe culture to fine dining, food and beverage trends, and the business of running a restaurant. Before that, I was deputy editor of Grand Designs Australia, giving me a dual perspective across both trade and consumer publishing.

I've interviewed some of Australia’s most respected chefs and restaurateurs, covered the industry through some of its most challenging periods and developed a deep understanding of what makes a hospitality business succeed.

This knowledge is what I bring to every project I take on.

I care deeply about Australian hospitality and the people who work in it, which is why I write about it with honesty rather than just enthusiasm.

When I’m not writing, you’ll find me eating out, usually snapping a photo or taking notes for a future Substack post.
