Icebergs x Victor Churchill - An exclusive one off dinner with 2 Sydney icons

"The most beautiful butcher shop in the world...a temple of meat, a dream a gift” - Anthony Bourdain

Restaurateur Maurice Terzini and Icebergs Dining Room and Bar present the Victor Churchill Showcase Dinner hosted by Executive Chef Monty Koludrovic and Anthony Puharich on Wednesday 26th June. 

Established in 1876, Victor Churchill is Australia’s oldest continually run butcher shop, dating back to the Churchill family and after which the store draws half its name. The other half belongs to Victor Puharich, a fourth-generation butcher who emigrated to Australia from Croatia in the 1970s. 

In 2009, his son Anthony opened Victor Churchill Fine Family Butcher, Queens Street, Woolhara, Sydney as a gift to his father. Ultimately, tradition and family history define this boutique butchery. A family of butchers and chefs handpick each product and producer to ensure the quality is unparalleled. There is theatre, luxury, and indulgence but above all there is dedication. Dedication to the craft of butchery.

Monty Koludrovic and Anthony Puharich have worked together to create a menu that reflects their friendship and love of food. This one-off dinner is an opportunity to bring together two iconic Sydney establishments showcasing only the best selections of meat by Victor Churchill, all exquisitely prepared by Monty and the team at Icebergs. This five course menu is a meat lover’s dream commencing with the Gnocchi Fritti with Prosciutto, Eggplant & Duck Liver Pate on Toast, a selection of Victor Churchill Charcuterie with Bread, Grissini, Pickles & Cheese, followed by the Kurobuta Pork Ragu, Orecchiette & Smoked Tomato, the headline attraction is a Sirloin Tasting plate of O’Connor Grass Fed, Rangers Valley Grain Fed and David Blackmore Full Blood Wagyu served with classic condiments and finishing with a Crème Caramel & Meyer Lemon & Olive Oil Gelato. 

“My relationship with Victor Churchill and the Puharich family goes back many years... it is something we at the restaurant are very proud of. It is a pleasure to welcome them into the restaurant for a night of awesome Australian artisanal product and talk with Australia’s premium butcher family…it’s going to be a wonderful evening celebrating excellence in the craft of butchery” Monty Koludrovic. 

“Icebergs has always been one of my favourite Sydney restaurants. Incredible views over Bondi Beach, beautiful produce driven menu and the slickest and most attentive service around. You can’t help but feel special when you dine at Icebergs. I feel blessed that I’m not only a regular customer there but that they’ve been a long standing and loyal customer of our family business. This showcase dinner brings two great brands in Victor Churchill and Icebergs Dining Room and Bar together for one night only to celebrate food, wine and friendship. I’m so happy and proud to be a part of it all” Anthony Puharich.
