Tobie Puttock (born 1974) is an Australian celebrity chef, best known for his association with British chef Jamie Oliver. ==Cooking career== Born in Melbourne, Victoria, Puttock trained at Box Hill Institute of TAFE, and first worked at Caffe e Cucina in South Yarra.〔Lethlen, John: (Espresso - Kids in the kitchen ), ''The Age'', 17 August 2004.〕 Working around Australia, and eventually Europe, Puttock first met Jamie Oliver in 1999 at River Café in London, where both of them worked for a time.〔Downie, Stephen: (Jamie Oliver's kitchen mission ), news.com.au, 13 September 2006.〕 Puttock returned to Melbourne, where he set up his own Italian restaurant, Termini, and appeared as a regular guest chef on the Australian version of ''Ready Steady Cook'', a cooking game show based on a British format.〔(Ready Steady Cook ), Network Ten.〕 In 2001, he was contacted by Oliver, now a well-known celebrity chef, who asked for his help in setting up a training restaurant for underprivileged young people. Puttock returned to London, and helped Oliver set up the first Fifteen restaurant in Hoxton, London. The creation of the restaurant and training scheme formed the basis of a 2002 TV series on Channel 4, ''Jamie's Kitchen''. Puttock remained at Fifteen as executive head chef for several years, until homesickness prompted him to suggest to Oliver that they set up an Australian version of Fifteen in his hometown of Melbourne.〔McManus, Bridget: (If you can't stand the heat, get out of Jamie's Kitchen ), ''The Age'', 9 September 2006.〕 Oliver agreed, and in 2006, a follow-up series ''Jamie’s Kitchen Australia'' was shown on Australia's Network Ten, which chronicled the establishment of Fifteen Melbourne and the training of its staff. Puttock was a guest judge on ''My Kitchen Rules'', along with fellow guest judges Karen Martini, Guy Grossi, Liz Egan and judges/hosts Manu Feildel, Pete Evans. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tobie Puttock」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
