Luis Rodrigo ‘Rod’ Zamora
Chef
Paper Crane
Crystalbrook Collection | Cairns
First job? Apprentice at Baton Rouge, in Melbourne. I loved it. I learnt from some very passionate chefs.
Most embarrassing thing you own? Star Trek uniform! Whenever I’m invited to dress up I go as a Star Trek member. I think people find Star Trek nerdy, but I love it. I am definitely a ‘Trekky’.
What about you surprises people? I believe in conspiracies.
If you could be anyone famous? President of the United States of America to find out what conspiracies are true and what are… conspiracies.
Superhero? Invisible Man. I guess to spy on the top secrets and find out intel from what the government hide from us!
Grateful for? My Mother. She is my role model and still teaches me to this day what’s right and wrong. I’m still her little baby.
Favourite memory? Family trips to Chile, especially our first trip back with the whole family together.
Someone famous you’ve met? Morgan Freeman in Amsterdam. I was riding my bike with my room mate through Dam Square and Mr Freeman was wearing a hat and it caught my eye. I rode around and stopped next to him and said “Excuse me sir are you Mr Morgan Freeman” and he replied “Yes I am”. I shook his hand, said “Nice to meet you” and rode off again.
