Dine Out: Gary McBean x Omnia

Omnia has been wowing South Yarra diners since 2019, when former Vue de Monde and Eleven Madison Park chef Stephen Nairn moved into the ground floor of the Capitol Grand building. For Broadsheet’s second Dine Out festival, the chef is inviting neighbour Gary McBean of G McBean Family Butcher down from Prahran Market for a special collaboration exploring whole animal butchery and unusual cuts..

The set menu is five courses plus snacks and features: veal tongue, salt-baked celeriac with black truffle and walnut, chicken-maitake tortellini with ham hock consommé and Meyer lemon, wood-fired lamb with mace and harissa, McBean’s “butcher’s secret” cuts, and Omnia’s signature Pink Lady tarte tatin for dessert.

This is a rare opportunity to catch two experts in their fields collaborating in one kitchen. Dietary requirements unfortunately cannot be accommodated due to the set menu.
