Ben Shewry
Ben Shewry was born in New Zealand in 1977 and moved to Melbourne, Australia in 2002. He worked with chefs David Thompson and Andrew McConnell before taking on his first head chef role at Attica in 2005. Originally obsessed with the detail and balance of Thai food, Ben began to develop a style at Attica that reflected his rural New Zealand upbringing and, increasingly, a fascination with Australian indigenous ingredients. Ben was never interested in using indigenous ingredients in a tokenistic way and made it his mission to learn about the culture and cuisine behind the ingredients from indigenous Australians. His championing of native ingredients in a fine dining setting has been highly influential on the Australian dining landscape. Attica started slowly but momentum built, and the restaurant began to attractboth crowds and accolades. The success of Attica also made Ben personally aware of the long hours and often unhealthy working environments chefs are exposed to and how this impacts their physical and mental health. He’s implemented changes in his own kitchen and is outspoken on the issue. In 2015 Ben became the sole owner of Attica, realising the dream and goal of being fully independent.

Attica's Jelly Bean Ice Cream by Ben Shewry & Nadia Hernandez

You can expect the unexpected when dining at Attica — a fine-dining institution that is no stranger to The World’s 50 best restaurant list and Michelin Stars.

Owner-chef Ben Shewry has a penchant for surprising diners and does so with his Jelly Bean Ice Cream that “makes people beam”.

Artist Nadia Hernandez shares Ben’s eye for excitement, channeled through her use of rich oil sticks, unafraid of luscious pigment and movement in her work. 

This poster tells the story of the unbridled joy of colour and the double happiness that is jelly bean ice cream, a piece made in collaboration with two of the best creative minds in Australia.
