STEFANO

Stefano's Restaurant became the recipient of many prestigious awards and continues to attract the support of many patrons. Stefano and Donata continue a family tradition in hospitality with the hope of providing variety and interest for residents and the many visitors who come to Mildura... Stefano became actively involved in many community causes from the moment he came to Australia. He edited an Italian fortnightly newspaper called "Nuovo Paese" through which he came into contact with many political and cultural identities. He dabbled with food - always his passion - in the early eighties, training for a little while in a professional environment, but finally chose a job in the Victorian Public Service. He became a private secretary to Minister Peter Spyker and then an advisor to a number of Ethnic Affairs Ministers. He married Donata Carrazza in 1991 and settled in Mildura at the same time. Together they have two children, Domenico and Claudia... The home of Stefano de Pieri..
