Mile End’s popular woodfired finish, Montreal-style bagels first popped up in Fitzroy in 2016, founded by owners Benjamin Vaughan and Michael Fee. Seven years later, it’s added permanent outposts in Brunswick, Richmond and now Hawthorn – the prolific bagelry’s fourth hotspot. Bagels are delivered daily – fresh from the Fitzroy HQ – and you can choose from the eatery’s core menu: sesame, poppyseed or “everything”. Fill them to the brim with toppings like cultured butter, peanut butter and jam, smoked salmon with caper and dill cream cheese, or brisket pastrami. There’s also egg salad with green tomato chutney; avocado with chive cream cheese; pickled jalapenos; and chicken salad with barbeque sauce in the mix. Or you can build your own at home by grabbing a bag of bagels and a tub of cream cheese to-go. For those who want to jump the line, click and collect via Mile End’s app. – GG

Courting: An Intimate History of Love and the Law
Urban Wine Walk
Founded in May this year, gender-neutral Melbourne label Sardine Supply is the work of James Nicolacopoulos and Gemma McLeod, and stems from the duo’s love of bold sardine-can graphics. Fusing the fashionable with the culinary, the brand ushers the tinned-fish trend into the wardrobe with its first slimline collection. Opt for comfy cotton tees, fleece jackets and pants in bright red, green and blue – eschewing the proliferation of soft-toned wardrobes – or a silk scarf adorned with illustrations of sardine tins. — EE & CMT
Most are familiar with the charm and emotion of romance novels, but in Courting, Sydney law lecturer Alecia Simmonds reveals a different kind of heartache. Uncovering Australian love stories from the 19th and 20th centuries documented in courtroom archives, Simmonds takes us back to a time when jilted men and women could sue for “breach of promise to marry” and claim compensation for their sufferings. Learn the details of where couples met, how they dated and what this means for the ethics of love today. — GG
For one afternoon, nine local bars across Prahran will be paired with regional and Victorian winemakers for the self-guided Urban Wine Walk, offering punters the chance to sample drops from established and emerging producers.

Shamini Rajarethnam Words by Gitika Garg Photo by Darcy Conlan The Rationale CEO talks global Aussie brands and feeling comfortable in her own skin. “My grandmother used to put aloe vera on her face every time there was a cut or sunburn,” Shamini Rajarethnam says. “My mother would use the remnants of egg whites, that she used when baking, on her face.” For the chief executive officer of cult Aussie skincare company Rationale, these are the kind of formative memories that mark her first childhood interactions with beauty – though some rituals were a little more upsetting than others. “My grandmother would drench my hair in oil, which I absolutely hated, but now I look back and thank her for it,” she tells Broadsheet. Growing up in Singapore shaped an understanding that beauty is “quite diverse, different and there’s not one traditional form”, Rajarethnam says. “My mum was always very aware of feeling comfortable and confident in your own skin, so I do hold on to that quite a bit.” In some ways, the young Rajarethnam already embodied much of what she champions at Rationale today. After moving to Melbourne for uni, she worked at a number of different Australian fashion businesses. Then she joined the luxury skincare brand in 2011 as marketing and digital coordinator, thanks to a job ad sent by her sister. Four years later, Rajarethnam found herself at the helm of the business, stepping into the role of CEO. “It was quite surprising for me and, in true form, my first reaction was like, ‘Oh no, no, no, I can’t do this’,” she says. Her quick rise through the ranks was not without hard work – a lot of it. Putting her hand up to help across various teams, Rajarethnam learned the ins and outs of supply chains, finance, marketing, research and operational infrastructure. “I’ve sat in pretty much every role. Whether I’ve done it well is a whole other question,” she laughs. Nowadays, the busy CEO’s schedule is regularly filled with meetings from morning until 3pm, with the exception of “no-meeting Fridays”.
“I think the misconception of my job is that everybody’s working for me. In my experience, I see it very much as ‘I’m here to serve everybody else’,” Rajarethnam says. “My role is to be the catalyst of conversations and remove roadblocks.” As a young woman CEO, Rajarethnam has faced her own set of challenges; there have been times, for example, when she’s walked into boardrooms and been mistaken as the assistant taking coffee orders. She prefers to answer back with results. Having helped grow Rationale’s distribution across Australia, Rajarethnam is also responsible for the brand’s expansion internationally. Two Singapore outposts were established in 2021, and the last six months have seen a soft launch throughout America. “There’s a whole different dynamic to when you become a truly global company where you’re dealing with different time zones, cultures, expectations and spelling,” she says. Rajarethnam has learned to appreciate the research and processes behind formulating good products throughout her years in the “saturated” skincare industry. Nodding to L’Oreal’s recent acquisition of Melbourne-founded skincare company Aesop and Sydney-born fashion label Zimmermann’s eight-figure valuation by private equity firm Advent International, she says, “The future is promising as we see the global stage starting to pay attention to Australia and the status of our brands.” As for her own skincare routine, Rajarethnam follows a simple regimen, using three Rationale products in the morning and another three at night. Much like the way she learned from her mother and grandmother’s beauty hacks, her own kids have begun to follow in her footsteps. “My daughter is so particular about what she puts on her face. She told her kindergarten teacher she can’t use their sunscreen [because she prefers Rationale]. It’s cute, but I’m like, ‘What have I created?’” November 8, 2023

Six Aussie Brands Making Face and Body SPF To Apply (and Reapply) By Alice Jeffery
ULTRA VIOLETTE This Melbourne brand launched in 2019 and quickly gained a cult following for its no-nonsense SPFs. Ultra Violette’s sunscreens – or “skinscreens”, as founders Bec Jefferd and Ava Matthews call them – not only protect the skin from the sun’s rays, they also incorporate active ingredients more typically found in skincare so users can simplify their routines. The brand offers a suite of products to cater to different skin types and SPF preferences. Queen Screen is a consistent favourite – although Fave Fluid, which launched in May, might be coming for the title of lightweight love. ultraviolette.com.au
NAKED SUNDAYS Its signature purple packaging has become a summer make-up bag must-have. And while Naked Sundays might be best known for Glow Mist – an SPF 50 spray that can be applied (and reapplied) as the last step on top of foundation or skincare products – the brand doesn’t stop there. Cabana Glow serum drops work to illuminate your complexion and even out skin tone – with ingredients such as pink algae and hyaluronic acid listed on the label, alongside mineral SPF 50. Glow Balm sticks, which come in three shades, are sun-safe alterna alternatives to classic blush, bronzer and highlighter. nakedsundays.com
OUTSIDE BEAUTY & SKINCARE The brand might only be a year old, but Outside Beauty & Skincare’s luxe SPF 50 Face Mist and SPF 50 Lip-to-Cheek tinted balm have quickly won sun-loving hearts and minds. The elevated range is made in Australia and formulated with native botanicals like Kakadu plum and raspberry-seed oil. The idea is that these products complement your daily routine and make topping up your sunscreen easy. The brand also offers a line of sunsafe merch including caps, totes and bucket hats – so there’s no reason to not slip, slop, slap. outsidebeautyskincare.com
M ECC A COS M E T I C A The Australian beauty heavyweight’s To Save Face SPF 50 sunscreen is a beauty-bag favourite for many. But for this summer, the brand has expanded its range to include To Save Body SPF 30 mousse. The new formula has a weightless, whipped texture that rubs in seamlessly and includes ingredients like glycerin and vitamin E to promote hydration. To Save Face SPF 50 Brightening Sun serum is another skincare-meets-suncare option for anyone looking for a lightweight layer in their routine. mecca.com
AIRYDAY Frances van der Velden was diagnosed with skin cancer at 36. Fortunately it turned out to be basal cell carcinoma and was detected early. But with nine stitches on her forehead, the Airyday founder decided to create a sunscreen she could really love wearing every day. The brand’s signature SPFs adapt to your skin’s moods and needs. Clear As Day SPF 50 is packed with hyaluronic acid. Mineral Mousse SPF 50 includes vitamins C, E and F – thought to help hydrate the skin barrier, boost collagen production and protect against free radicals. And Golden Glow SPF 50 offers a subtle tint. airyday.co
MOTHER SPF Tandia Walsh launched Mother SPF in 2019. The brand’s focus stemmed from personal experience: when her mum was diagnosed with cancer, Walsh found her herself searching for products that didn’t contain endocrinedisrupting ingredients. Unsatisfied with the options out there, she leant on her science background to create the range, which harnesses mineral-active zinc oxide to protect from UVA and UVB rays. The brand has just released a skin barrier-boosting broad-spectrum SPF 50, Face Barrier, which comes in a refillable jar. motherspf.com November 8, 2023

Making a statement in Brighton
“This is one of the most outstanding homes and builds Brighton has ever seen. The quality finishes, the Venetian finishes, and the choices of marble and basement living are phenomenal. The builder has left no stone unturned with quality.”
Words by Anders Furze
Soaring ceilings, stunning curved lines, bountiful light, a home theatre, gym, pool and all the luxury finishes – this is a true Brighton statement home. Soaring arched windows allow plenty of light to circulate inside and give the house a unique facade looking onto the street. There are three floors of family living here, and the luxury extends to the details, including custom timber joinery, marble finishes and automated interior lighting throughout. The opulent tone is set at the outset with a Euroluce chandelier in the entrance. The home office next to the entry is bathed in light thanks to a northern orientation. Wander further inside the house, and you’ll find the first of its four bedrooms, which has a spacious walk-in wardrobe that leads into an en suite with double vanity. The floor plan opens out into the roomy, open living and dining room, which is next to the kitchen. The kitchen’s highlights include a marble island bench and Liebherr appliances. It makes for effortless entertaining, supported by the a separate, fully equipped butler’s kitchen.
Best of all, the adjoining wine room means refreshments are never far away. Downstairs, you’ll find quite a spacious basement. You’ll never be short on motivation while working out in the basement gym, thanks to a “hustle the muscle” neon sign. Down here are also a steam room, a luxury home theatre and a powder room. Head up the staircase or take the lift to the first floor, and you’ll find the spacious main bedroom. An arched window magnificently defines this space, which also includes a dressing room. The bedroom’s double-vanity en suite has a concrete Meek bath that’s made for soaking. The finishing touch in the dressing room is a V-Zug Refresh Butler system that keeps garments wrinkle-free and refreshed. There’s a lovely retreat and study nook with an in-built desk up here as well. The other two bedrooms upstairs both have builtin wardrobes and en suites. Rear gardens by landscape architect Ben Scott, surround the swimming pool. The standout feature here is a huge outdoor TV screen that’s almost the width of the pool.
Elsewhere, the garage guarantees secure parking for three cars, and there’s also a 10-kilowatt solar system. This neighbourhood is a pocket of Brighton tranquillity and close to Middle Brighton station. Noted historical landmark Billilla Mansion is around the corner, and you can easily wander down to the beach or across to the cafes and shops of Hampton Street. All of Brighton’s top independent schools are also easily accessible. Brighton 123 Roslyn Street $8 million-$8.8 million 4

But, to me, it’s not quite right … Guests in my home deserve to see my home at its best.” If you are lucky enough to be invited to Melissa Leong’s house for afternoon tea, three things will probably be true. The house will be immaculately clean (“I mean, classic Asian person”), there will be flowers on full display (“I am very florally obsessed”) and Leong will probably offer you a slice of her staple cake (“the easiest cake you’ll ever make”). The “literally foolproof ” recipe? Weigh out equal parts flour, butter, sugar and eggs. Cream the butter and the sugar. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Then pop it in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius until a skewer comes out clean. (Leong also recommends adding frozen berries, Nutella or jam to the batter – or anything else you might have lying around – before baking.) “This is not an elegant thing. This is a delicious, soulful thing,” she says of the bake. “It is something that you don’t have to think about.

Helming the new show illustrates just how much Leong has solidified her place in the Aussie media landscape since her first Masterchef season aired – and how her broader cultural significance transcends the show. She is an important figure among Asian Australians and a trailblazer in the industry. Leong’s ability to speak frankly about what it means to be an Asian person in a predominantly white media industry has made her an icon, hero and “dream best friend” to many. But we also fell hard for Leong simply because of her approachable cool. (She’s the ultimate #relatablequeen, if you will.)

Right now, that queen is boiling a kettle in her warm minimalist kitchen. The gadget is neatly hidden in the pantry when not in use, but it’s time for tea. Leong says she prefers something with a little bit of fer fermentation, like oolong, but will match what she’s drinking with what’s on the table. Traditional French pastries demand an Earl Grey, for example. Instead of the delicate porcelain you might expect, tea is presented in a choice of hefty handcrafted mugs. Big and cosy, rather than elegant and petite. In Leong’s eyes, if you’re entertaining, serving simple things you know how to do well is of as much benefit to you as a host as it is to your guests. “You want to enjoy the company of the people that you’re having over. You don’t want them to feel stressed that you’re faffing about and things haven’t turned out.”
Still, if Leong’s mates ever did have to wait out an extended period of faffing, they’d have plenty to look at in and around her dining space. Sculptural blooms from Fitzroy florist Flowers Vasette (“I think flowers really bring a sense of luxury and life into a home”) and an array of (chic, naturally) cat statues sit alongside pieces made by her creative friends. One of these – a pearlescent blownsugar rose that co-judge Amaury Guichon made on the set of Dessert Masters – sits delicately inside a bell jar, perched on a wallaby skull Leong collected while foraging in Canberra years ago. “It takes pride of place because I loved working with Amaury. He’s become a really good mate and I think of it fondly,” she says. “It did, however, kind of fall off the skull at some point, so the petals aren’t as perfect as he would have them be! But I think therein lies the story of the fragility of beauty.” Somehow, these delicate tchotchkes survive being displayed in the same house as Ghost and Ghoul, the two cats Leong shares her home with. Ghost is named for the Swedish rock outfit, while Ghoul’s moniker comes from the Nameless Ghouls – the anonymous instrumentalists who accompany the band. Ghoul is a shy boy, Leong explains, but Ghost rules the kingdom. “This is his home. I’m just paying rent.” Despite the new show and the media spotlight, Leong knows she has to make time for things that bring her joy. Whether that means a chunky mug of tea, a seductive bombolone, or entertaining and spending time with loved ones. “I’ll block out free time or I’ll make an appointment to see someone, even if it’s a couple of weeks in advance,” Leong says. “I know there are so many memes about ‘I’m sorry I’m late, I didn’t want to be here’ or making appointments with close friends and then cancelling and everybody’s relieved. And I get that. But when I do keep appoint appointments with friends, I never regret it. “So I remind myself not to cancel things, as tired as I am. Being so lucky to have such amazing friends, they give me energy. I know that spending time with people who are important to me, that’s a gift to me as well.”

andwiched between Mentone and Black Rock, Beaumaris is the beachside suburb that combines the very best of Australian mid-century architecture with a coastal view that’s hard to beat. Situated on a headland, the suburb is almost entirely surrounded by water on three sides. (And it’s not far to the Southland shops.) If you’re keen to explore by foot (or bike) you can travel the entire coast via a walking and cycling trail. Stay on that same path to walk the entirety of Port Phillip Bay if you’ve set out to explore the wider area. Otherwise, start the trail at Mentone Dog Beach and follow it for just under three kilometres to Ricketts Point. Both start and end points are dog-friendly beaches, so you’ll be able to bring your furry friend along with you. Just offshore sits Ricketts Point Marine Sanctuary. With clear waters, rockpools and sea caves, it makes for an ideal sea-creature viewing spot. The shallow waters are also patrolled in summer, so you can go for a dip to cool off. Afterwards, grab a bite to eat at Rickett’s Point Beaumaris, a seaside cafe where diners are often treated to sightings of dolphins, pelicans and black swans. Alternative coffee spots present themselves at Saska Cafe and Ginger Fox. When it comes to food, Beaumaris favours its longstanding neighbourhood institutions. The family-run La Cucina offers traditional Italian fare. At Flavours Patisserie, you can order a crepe and watch as it’s made in front of you. Or head to the iconic Lobster Cave for a seafood dining experience (and extensive cocktail menu) that’s kept locals coming back for more than 30 years. You can’t go wrong with a late afternoon drink at Gin Dispensary. Located on Beach Road at the old Beaumaris Hotel site, it’s a gin bar and cellar door that’s home to an extensive range of cocktails. Pull up a chair and order snacks from the share-plate menu to go with your drink, or buy a bottle of craft gin to take home. 16

Jason Penfold Words by Holly Bodeker-Smith · Photos by Phoebe Powell
J
ason Penfold, artist and founder of Violet Eyes Entomology, grew up surrounded by nature in regional New South Wales. “I was the kid who was always in the dirt, garden and nature,” he tells Broadsheet. He came to love it through exploration and the people around him, especially his grandmother. “She was really smart when it came to geology and the natural world.” It’s fitting then, that Penfold’s art practice focuses on nature, and recreating its stillness. The self-taught ceramicist, sculptor and entomology artist creates intricate works using natural specimens like butterflies and moths. “As an adult, you cycle back to those things that make you feel really good. And being in the natural world and working with natural history with my art always felt good.” Since 2015, this passion has seen Penfold spend countless hours learning to handle, pin, pose and preserve Lepidoptera and other specimens. The fine motor skills he’s honed across ceramics, sculpture and taxidermy have come in handy, too. “Most of what I know has been me on the kitchen floor of my apartment, teaching myself to pin but butterflies,” he says. “I made really ugly things for a couple of years.” While it’s involved plenty of trial and error, learning beyond the ivory tower has also enabled flexibility. Traditional specimen presentation might call to mind vivid illustrations of butter butterflies and beetles, or butterflies in a dusty shadow box at the back of an antiques store. But Penfold’s works test the boundaries of entomology art by using other natural elements – such as pearls, crystals, brass, clay and stones like agate. In one piece, a kaleidoscope of butterflies form a circle around a mother-of-pearl fragment, posed as if bowing in worship. In another, two comet moths face each other while propped onto a plate of selenite, their long tails cascading over the crystal. While most entomological representation focuses on the study of specimens, these vignettes go one step further to tell a story, inviting stillness and reflection. “What I do is like a visual meditation,” Penfold says. An average day in his dedicated Richmond studio space might be spent working on commissioned art pieces or an upcoming collection, 18

or running entomology workshops. For each piece, Penfold sources butterflies and moths from farms around the world, excluding species that are endangered. “The ones I work with have lived a life. They’re not A1 specimens – you can tell by their wings and the scratches on their bodies,” he says. “I pin them and put them in a frame or an artwork so they’re safe forevermore.” For those curious about the practice, Penfold’s workshops teach you to handle, pin and display different specimens – from butterflies to beetles to scorpions. There’s beginner’s entomology, Victorian dome-making and, his personal favour favourite, the spiders and scorpions workshop. “I love that class because it’s more sculpture-based and leans into the world of taxidermy.” In the daylong workshop, participants turn these formidable arachnids into pieces of art that they might hang on their own walls. It includes using a 3D silicon injection technique to give specimens a lifelike quality. And Penfold’s own pet – a Flinders Ranges scorpion named Seymour – is there to be studied along the way. Not your average muse. Penfold acknowledges that his work is niche. But while it’s not everyone’s cup of venom, Violet Eyes has grown a devoted following over the years. One of its more popular pieces, for example, is a vase-like ceramic urn that has smooth, rounded edges – and will actually look good on your mantelpiece, whether used as a vase or funerary object. “People love it because it’s not your classic urn. It’s got a whole concept behind it.” Many of Penfold’s pieces tackle complex topics, dancing on the precipice between life and death. He combines materials and techniques to create curious artworks that will stand out in any home. And the same might be expected from his next collection, which Penfold says will explore the theme of fire. It’s inspired by his current favourite butterfly, the Acontius firewing, which is black with a fiery band of orange across its wings. “People can expect something beautiful, even if the subject matter is heavy.” Violet Eyes Entomology’s artworks and workshops are available through violeteyesentomology.com.

Hole-in-the-Wall Sydney By Grace MacKenzie
A
Sydney weekender can be a lot of things: balmy nights in the city streets, hopping from sexy bar to fine diner to hotel room. It can be burnt-orange sunrises over expanses of ocean, sandy wandering, smoothies and Sculptures by the Sea. It can be suburban wine bars, rooftop bakeries, brewery-powered locales and ferries across the harbour. It’s a slick city with a sun-licked glow that begs you to stay for a little while longer. Having a quintessential Sydney trip is easy, but it’s the holein-the-wall spots that’ll have you enjoying its juiciest bounty like an in-the-know local. Down an unassuming city alleyway, Parami dishes out plump paper-wrapped onigiri. Kombu
and ume or salted salmon, the hand-held snack joins vibrant just-whisked matcha. If you’re on a Euro bent try Köket – a swish slither of a Swedish cafe hiding in a Paddington homewares store where you can get golden cream-stuffed cardamom buns, cinnamon-laced twists and salted pretzels. If the sun’s out, make moves to Wylie’s Baths. Its blue-and-yellow-striped doorway is hidden along Coogee’s bushy coastal track. A sunbleached deck surrounds the salty ocean pool, and ladder-like steps take you to the water’s edge. A steaming bowl of creamy tonkotsu and a mandarin sake await at Darlinghurst’s teeny Chaco Ramen. Nearby Love, Tilly Devine pushes
snacky fried olives and sardine sangas alongside natural Aussie drops from up-and-coming winemakers. A true Sydneysider has definitive picks of Marrickville’s brewery scene. You’re in for happy sipping at Wildflower, Kicks and Hawke’s (where yum cha trolleys roam monthly). Head to Ester Spirits if you’re after award-winning gin instead. Your final stop is a bar in a bar: La Prima. The 10-person candlelit mezcal bar is hidden behind a trick door in El Primo Sanchez, a Mexican joint on Oxford Street. Stop in and ask to enter the smoky den – it’s the hottest spot to hang in Sydney right now.
