You might recognise Juan. Sharp-eyed foodies will have seen him on the only episode of the Netflix food show
Chef s Table: BBQ to feature an Australian cook – in this case, Firedoor s Lennox Hastie. During the episode, Hastie journeys up to far-northern Queensland to discover the source of his seafood-heavy cuisine, going out to spear a mud crab and then cook it over hot coals on a deserted beach with an Indigenous guide.
