SOLD OUT / Book launch - Uses for Obsession by Ben Shewry

Join us on Wednesday, 2nd October, at the historic Fitzroy Town Hall to launch Ben Shewry's incredible memoir, Uses for Obsession: A (Chef's) Memoir. Ben is in conversation with the Double J's Zan Rowe. Ben Shewry, Attica owner/chef, knows obsession well. Whether it's crispy-edged lasagne, saltwater crocodile ribs, or the perfect potato, obsession motivates and makes him tick. It's also propelled his Melbourne restaurant Attica into the league of the world's most innovative, acclaimed dining experiences, and one of the most vital in Australian history. Uses for Obsession is more than a memoir. It's a bold blueprint for a workplace of the future. One built on kindness, truth and an obsessive commitment to never giving up.  

If you've ever dreamt of eating at Attica, this is your chance to try Ben's 'obsession-level bolognese' and enjoy his thoughts on leadership, creativity, the hospitality industry, and the perfect lasagne.  

6pm for a 6:30pm start. Tickets are $25, including bolognese* in a take-home mug and a glass of wine, or $55 with the book, at a 15% discount.
