It all started with their founding father, Don Algie, or should they say Boss Hog, sailing along the Queensland coast and settling into the idylic surrounds of the Whitsunday Islands. The doors of the first restaurant were opened in July 1989 at Airlie Beach, North Queensland. In November the following year, a second store was opened in Mooloolaba. Additional stores quickly followed with locations opening in Townsville City, Darwin, and Cairns and along the eastern seaboard. So what has made the Hog�s Breath system so successful that it has grown at an average rate of six new outlets every twelve months for the past few years? The answer has to do with providing a unique dining experience within the Australian marketplace. From day one Hog�s Breath set out to be unlike any other restaurant in appearance, atmosphere, style and type of service it offered patrons.
