We’re beyond excited to announce a very special collaboration with @shannon_martinez and @smithanddaughters We will be joining forces to bring some of Attica’s most renowned dishes (veganified!) to Smith + Daughters on the 30th of August. Tickets will be $125pp for the main dining room, and we have 20 tickets available for a special edition of our chef’s table, hosted by Ben himself for $150pp. Smith + Daughters will also be offering a very exciting wine pairing with special museum release wines from Vinteloper. Due to this being a special event, we cannot cater for dietary requirements. Tickets will be on sale Friday (18/8), from 9am via @smithanddaughters . Be quick, because you do not want to miss out!

Last Sunday’s friends, smiles and sense of community. We peeled off the label to see what was behind the wine. Gippsland, you are remarkable. Attica cooking simple rustic winter fare with the lovely @hogget_kitchen team. A Simple Dish of Potato Cooked in the Earth it was Grown Eat The Problem Bologaise. La Pasta Verde of Warrigal greens and Green Ants. BBQ Salt water croc rib with BBQ sauce. Extra special thanks to our close pal @williamdownie and @dmrbnsn for pulling this together. Thanks to the great crowd! #atticamelbourne #gippslandwine #australia

Back for one night only, our former Head Sommelier @janeymaxine and her wonderful husband and @auswinelegends business partner (who has also been known to have done a cheeky Attica shift before) @dj_gramenon, will be taking over the wine service On Tuesday 8th of August, both @auswinelegends will be floating around the floor here at Attica, pouring some very special Australian wines, and chatting about the brand new book “How to Drink Australian” that they co-authored. We will be serving the current Attica menu, but with the added bonus of being able to say hi to these lovely legends and sip on some special wines of their choosing (if you would like to!) They will have some signed copies of their book available to purchase on the night as well. Jane and Jon- We CAN’T WAIT to see you again and help you both celebrate the release of this instrumental and essential wine book. Bookings as per normal and via link in the bio.

RIP Fantales 😢 This week we were reminded of our tribute to these small but mighty sweets: Attica’s Chefstales. Here is a sample of some of the wrappers from the chocolate covered caramel we served on our menu over 5 years ago, paying homage to some notable chefs from around the world, and of course, the iconic Fantales.

As a fresh-faced 19-year-old, Matt walked into Attica for his shift as a kitchen hand and never looked back. Now, 12 years later, he’s still here but these days he keeps our kitchen in order as head chef. At the link in our bio, Matt @boylemd recounts his first day (it involved a lot of mandarins!) and his time working through every station in the Attica kitchen.

The first rule of hosting a good dinner party? Never make any recipes you haven’t cooked before. Trust us. As a team of dinner party devotees, when we’re not hosting people here at Attica, one of our favourite things to do is host them at home instead. At the link in bio, we’re spilling secrets from years of restaurant tables and at- home know-how to help you host the ultimate dinner party without feeling like you’re working overtime (unless you are @benshewry - he always works overtime when hosting guests!).

Jelly Bean Ice Cream! @benshewry X @nando_nandez poster is available for sale from today. It is part of the Artist Collection, bringing together artists and chefs to celebrate creativity in both spaces, and with each poster sold 10 meals will be donated to @secondbiteorg Attica’s Jelly Bean Ice Cream is a special recipe — one that brings a lot of people a lot of joy and we hope it brings you some too. And everyone knows that red jelly beans are the best flavour….right? Now available via @foodforeveryone.aus Photography by @brettwalkerphotography
