墨尔本知名主厨Andrew McConnell及其妻子Jo McGann旗下的餐饮集团Trader House收购了圣基尔达（St Kilda）的标志性餐厅Stokehouse1。这家成立于1990年1月1日的餐厅已有36年历史，由Frank、Sharon和Hugh van Haandel家族经营，将于2024年10月完成交接1。
McConnell承诺保留Stokehouse的特色和现有团队，在2027年前不进行大规模调整1。该餐厅曾在2014年遭大火摧毁后重建，成为澳大利亚最环保的餐厅之一1。这家餐厅曾接待过众多国际知名人士，包括Barack和Michelle Obama、Noel Gallagher和Robert De Niro等1。
McConnell在餐饮业经验丰富，曾于2000年代中期担任圣基尔达另一家餐厅Circa The Prince的主厨，最著名的创意是2020年开业的Gimlet餐厅1。此次收购使Trader House在墨尔本的场所增至7家，该集团在昆州还运营Supernormal Brisbane和Bar Miette两家餐厅，其中Bar Miette于2024年开业1。
Andrew McConnell and his wife Jo McGann, through their hospitality group Trader House, have purchased Stokehouse, the landmark St Kilda restaurant established in 1990 1. The acquisition will be completed in October 2024, marking a transition from the van Haandel family, who have operated the 36-year-old venue since its opening on January 1, 1990 1.
McConnell has committed to preserving the restaurant's character and existing team, pledging to avoid major changes until 2027 1. The restaurant, which was rebuilt following a destructive fire in 2014 to become one of Australia's most environmentally sustainable dining establishments, has hosted notable patrons including Barack and Michelle Obama, Noel Gallagher, and Robert De Niro 1. Trader House currently operates seven venues across Melbourne and two in Queensland, including Supernormal Brisbane and Bar Miette, which opened in 2024 1. McConnell, who previously served as head chef at Circa The Prince, another St Kilda restaurant, in the mid-2000s, is best known for opening Gimlet in 2020 1.
