Council cuts ties with celebrity chef after 5 year run
POPULAR chef Matt Golinski‘s role as the region’s Food Ambassador was put on the chopping block as Gympie Regional Council reviewed the role late last year.
Councillors voted 8-1 to not renegotiate Mr Golinski’s contract at a November council meeting.
“I was almost left at the end feeling like they were treating me like I was some sort of scammer who had been ripping them off for five years and hadn’t done anything to earn the money I’ve been getting paid,” he said in an interview with the ABC.
