#64 - Maurice Terzini, Icebergs and more...

Founder Maurice Terzini is best known for stamping his indelible mark and style on both the Sydney and Melbourne dining experience. His long history in the hospitality industry and gift for fostering lasting creative relationships have seen him establish not only some of Australia’s most iconic dining venues, but also a number of Sydney’s most recognisable events. Born to Italian parents in Melbourne, early years spent back in Italy cemented in him a love of his culture and heritage, awakening a life-long passion for Italian hospitality. At the age of 23 Terzini opened his first venture, Caffe e Cucina on Melbourne’s then undiscovered Chapel Street, with the café radically altering perceptions and conventions around the dining scene at the time, offering high-end quality in a café setting. A string of successful hospitality ventures followed, capped by the jewel in the crown of Icebergs Dining Room and Bar on the cliffs of Bondi- opening in 2002. More than a decade on, Icebergs is still at the forefront of the Australian culinary landscape, thanks to Terzini’s gift for dreaming the big picture and executing it, often ahead of his time and breaking ground in ideas, style and locations.

#60 - Big Sam Young, S'more

The story of Sam Young is one that’s been pressure-cooked, flash-fried, and is now braising on a low, gentle simmer. Inspired by the taste of his travels to Italy, Canada, Hong kong, Vietnam and Malaysia to name a few, he has worked in Sydney’s top restaurants like Mr. wong, Ms.g’s, Queen chow, Totti’s and more recently as Lotus’s head chef. As one of Australia’s top chefs, he believes that it takes more than just flavours to elevate food from good to great – it’s the complete experience that comes with it. Currently, Sam Young hosts exclusive dinners as a private chef and is a creative collaborator with the industry’s brightest talents and go-to eateries. Moving from planned menus into curated dining experiences, he loves delighting diners with his #bsyexperience twist – often with shavings of truffle or dollops of caviar. His specialities include sourcing only the finest australian produce, innovating crowd favourite dishes, and pairing his dining experiences with his one-of-a-kind big personality.
