Famed restaurateur Maurice Terzini has resigned as director of his most prominent venue, Bondi’s Icebergs Dining Room and Bar. His resignation comes after multiple untested sexual assault allegations against his son, Sylvester Terzini, reported by the Sydney Morning Herald and the Age last week.
Sylvester Terzini reportedly did not respond to detailed questions about specific allegations made by the SMH but vigorously denied the allegations. No charges have been laid. His lawyer said he had “no criminal history for violence or sexual misconduct”, according to the SMH report.
