In his new memoir, Uses for Obsession, acclaimed Melbourne chef, Ben Shewry calls out toxic hospitality culture and denounces the 'incredibly problematic' restaurant awards system that helped make his own restaurant famous.
Originally from a small farm in North Taranaki, Shewry has been the executive chef and owner of Melbourne's award-winning Attica restaurant since 2005.
Uses for Obsession calls for an industry to stop pandering to a failing system and questions the future of the restaurant scene.
