A year later, White's restaurant, Mirabelle, was opened, and Curtis was hired as a line cook or Chef de Partie. Stone managed to impress Marco and was promoted to Sous Chef after only six months. He was promoted to head chef at Quo Vadis, another one of White's restaurants, the following year.

While working for Marco White, Curtis not only learned skills as a chef but also as a restaurateur. He has used the things he learned from the British chef and now owns his own restaurants. Curtis opened his first restaurant in Beverly Hills, California, and named it Maude, after his grandmother.

As a restaurant owner, the celebrity chef handles the management side of the establishments. While he might not cook at his restaurants as a regular chef, diners can see the chef's inspiration in all of them.

After this, he found an agent and managed to find spots in various morning tv-shows in the UK. He was then asked to be the co-host of Surfing the Menu alongside fellow Australian chef Ben O’Donohue.

After the show, Curtis's career took a turn, and he hasn't looked back since. Surfing the Menu ended in 2006, and Stone managed to bag the series, Take Home Chef, which aired on TLC.
