From product sampler to dishwasher, now a successful Filipino restaurant owner in Australia
Chef Jackie Jacutin is originally from Tablon, Cagayan de Oro City. He studied culinary arts through the Department of Education's Alternative Learning System (ALS), which led him to work in restaurants in the Middle East. In 2019, he moved to Australia, where he worked in several hatted restaurants before opening his own—Café Lurline—in 2023.
Among the daily bestsellers on their menu are Filipino favourites like sisig, Pedro's chicken inasal with roasted potatoes, and Dao tapsilog or Dao beef skewers.
He and his team also recently opened a burger and taco shop in the Blue Mountains, NSW.
