Atef is eager to expand further with plans for more alfresco dining, just in time for the state’s peak summer season. Looking back, he sees hospitality as the career he was meant to have. From Wrest Point to Wooden Horse, his journey has been defined by a drive to create memorable experiences and spaces. Even in challenging times, he insists, hospitality is his home. “I love hospitality. It’s just me. Starting at Wrest Point and being there 17 years, I loved it and when I opened my own business as well, I felt even prouder. Now I have a second business as well and every day, I would never change hospitality with anything.” What began in Alexandria on a horse stud has grown into a career spanning continents and culminating in one of Hobart’s most distinctive hospitality venues. Wooden Horse isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a reflection of its owner, a man who loves horses, loves timber, and above all, loves bringing people together.
