Josef "Sepp" Schellhorn, born on May 12, 1967, in Schwarzach im Pongau, is an Austrian entrepreneur, restaurateur, and politician. He grew up in Goldegg am See and initially pursued a career as a ski racer before discovering his passion for culinary arts. After working in Austria, Pisa, Miami, and Paris, as well as working with renowned chefs such as Jörg Wörther and Eckart Witzigmann, he took over his parents' business, "Der Seehof" in Goldegg, in 1996.

In recent years, Schellhorn has gained additional notoriety through humorous cooking videos on platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. These videos led to the publication of his cookbook "Sepp, was macht du?" (Sepp, what are you doing?), in which he presents 90 of his most popular recipes.

He currently runs the "Gasthof zum Bierführer" in Goldegg, just a few meters away from his former business.
