Ben Devlin and Yen Trinh are the founders of Pipit Restaurant, the newly crowned 2023 Good Food Guide ‘Regional Restaurant of the Year’.

Located in picturesque Pottsville, a coastal town in the Northern Rivers of NSW, Pipit is a multi-award winning modern dining experience based around coastal and seasonal ingredients and wood-fired cooking.

The menu pays homage to the produce of the local region not just on the plate but also through Ben’s unique ingredients prints.

In this episode, we chat to Ben about: his career as a chef and how his collective experiences have contributed to the particular menu style and ethos that has put Pipit on the map as a regional dining destination; he and Yen’s support and mentoring of young industry talent; plus, we find out what’s next for this creative duo.
