Gray And Gray’s Village Fowl by Boris Portnoy & Eytan Messiah

Hailing from Georgia, this wholesome dish is served as the centrepiece of a festive family meal. Artist Eytan Messiah looked to Georgian folklore for inspiration, and found it in ‘lurji supra’ — a traditional Georgian tablecloth that symbolises the cultural importance of feasting.

Working on white ceramic tiles adorned with deep-blue glaze, Eytan has centred the key ingredients: the rooster, pomegranate, and walnut tree underneath the all important ‘borjgali’, the Georgian symbol for the sun. 

This recipe is by Boris Portnoy, chef-owner of Gray and Gray Bread and Wine in Melbourne’s Northcote; a one-of-a-kind Georgian and Russian wine bar. The food that Boris makes is deeply personal — the menu reflecting his Russian heritage and decades spent travelling to Georgia.

Eytan Messiah

Artist
  
Eytan Messiah has developed modes of storytelling through interests in written and visual languages. Underpinning his current practice is the translation of myth referencing ancient figures, colonial paintings, folk art and early Staffordshire figurines.   Completing a Bachelor of Fine Art at Sydney College of the Arts in 2003 and continuing on to a Masters of Teaching, Messiah has been an exhibiting artist and Art and Design educator for the last 18 years. His recent commission for an extensive ceramic tile mural in the newly opened HER Rooftop Bar in Melbourne’s CBD explored the histories and mythologies of the 1903 building and the personalities involved. Since then he was the Artist in Residence at Rae's on Wategos, developing a body of work in ceramics and painting a large mural in the Penthouse Suite.

Boris Portnoy

Chef
  
Boris Portnoy is the owner and creative director of Gray and Gray Bread and Wine — restaurant and wine bar that masquerades as lawyer’s office in Northcote, Melbourne. Boris has kept the wine bar’s original shop front complete with vertical blinds and gold lettering that reads ‘Gray & Gray Barristers & Solicitors’, creating a tongue-in-cheek energy that filters through to the Russian and Georgian-inspired menu. As a child growing up in Moscow, Boris always knew he wanted to be a chef. After moving to the United States, Boris set aside his aspirations to study economics, and moved through Michelin star studded restaurants going on to win several awards as a pastry chef. Fuelled by a desire to move away from the fine-dining world, he realised that what he wanted was to create a place that served the community and opened All Are Welcome Bakery.
