Together they are responsible for the enduringly popular annual publication The Foodies' Diary. Michele is Melbourne based and most recently opened Frankie's Top Shop in St Kilda, Melbourne.

Cibi Home-style Japanese cooking Meg Tanaka and Zenta Tanaka

DRAF T

C OV E R

CIBI ('a little one') is a book on home-style Japanese cooking inspired by the eponymous Melbourne café and design space created by Meg and Zenta Tanaka. It contains 80 seasonally relevant recipes across vegetables, fish and seafood, meat, grains and noodles, and sweets, plus small features on elements of Japanese cooking and food culture, accompanied by beautiful photography and illustrations. The recipes, many designed for sharing, strongly reflect Meg and Zenta's ethos – a fresh approach to simplicity using quality produce. CIBI incorporates elements of Japanese design culture and glimpses of their young family's worlds in Collingwood, Tokyo, and Meg’s birthplace, Okayama, alongside snapshots (in words and pictures) of the CIBI-feel: an enjoyment of food, community and sharing.

Author Details CIBI is the love and life of Meg and Zenta Tanaka. After meeting at university in Adelaide and spending time travelling in Europe, they established CIBI ('a little one') in Melbourne more than 11 years ago as an expression of their way of living, their desire to create a space for people to enjoy and feel at home in, and to blend their backgrounds and experience in food, wine, design and architecture. At CIBI, Japanese sensibilities and their evolving Australian lifestyles are combined to create a community, driven by the key elements of head, hands and heart: a warm and welcoming space that marries simple, good food with sophisticated design to enrich the lives of customers, friends and family and to provide a sense of joy and happiness.

DRAF T

C OV E R

Hailed as Australia's Willy Wonka, Darren Purchese is renowned for his stunning high-end dessert creations. Known as the chef with the tricks, with a scientific approach to food and ingredients, in Lamingtons & Lemon Tart, he turns his eye to the classics, cast with his trademark flair for the home cook who might be ambitious, but also wants to feel that the recipes are within their grasp – and that ingredients can be sourced with ease. Alongside this line-up of classics, he includes a selection of his favorite modern creations, from Caramelized white chocolate mousse to Explosive raspberry wagon wheels; Lemon meringue pie éclair; Canneles; Passionfruit clouds; and his big-selling Popcorn and honeycomb rubble. And, for the breakfast fans, Darren's winning Granola, his take on American pancakes, and the decadent Brioche French toast with cinnamon ice cream.

Recipes are divided across eight chapters (cakes, choux pastry, desserts, snacks, tarts, breakfast, confectionary and frozen dessert), while Darren also takes readers through the basics of what he considers to be “sweet essentials”, including batters, confectionary, caramel, pastry, meringues, jellies, and chocolate garnish. Complete with stunning, pared back photography, this package will set itself apart as the next big baker's must-haves.

Author Details British-born pastry chef Darren Purchese has won a loyal, enviable following over five years with his Sweet Studio Burch & Purchese, on Chapel Street in Melbourne. Together with wife Cath Claringbold, he has built a reputation for stunning feats of sugary deliciousness combining jellies, sponges, mousses, cream, crumbles and spreads. Many creations are works of art as much as they are a birthday cake or celebration dessert. Darren has played a prominent role on MasterChef over successive years (he was responsible for the passionflower pressure test, one of the highest rating episodes in 2015), and is lined up to do so again in 2016. He is looking at opportunities to give his brand a retail presence in Brisbane, he had a cameo role in Neighbours in October 2015, and he created the wedding cake and dessert for good mate Storm Uechtritz’s wedding to Boyzone singer Ronan Keating recently, where he was also a guest.

Author Details Pana Barbounis founded Pana Chocolate in Melbourne three years ago. A child of Greek migrant parents who did not have a lot of money, he always believed if he was self employed, he would be more prosperous. Pana also decided, in his 30s, that in the next phase of his life, he would do things his way. This desire – after many years working in food and catering – led to his discovery of raw chocolate. He developed his products and worked on them for six months, including training in the UK and visits to Belgium, where he worked with traditional chocolatiers. He learnt a lot about individual ingredients, before creating his range that now dominates the raw food space; Pana Chocolate is vegan, organic and refined-sugar free. He started out in 2013 selling $600 worth of chocolate a month – and delivering it from the back of his scooter – but very quickly brought on a distributor. His chocolate is now sold by 3000 stockists around the world (1900 in Australia), plus he has stores in Richmond, Melbourne, and Alexandria, Sydney. The business's turnover exceeds $5 million a year. The chocolate is all made and packaged in his Richmond warehouse, behind the Melbourne shop on Church Street. To give a sense of overseas spread, Pana Chocolate is sold by 40 stores in Iceland, France was the company's biggest international market in 2015, Wholefoods stock it in the UK, and it is sold on both the east and west coast of the US, too. Pana's ambition is for Pana Chocolate to be the number one raw chocolate company in the world.

Key Information • • • •

Raw chocolate is gaining in popularity as part of the veganism trend. Over 70 ideas for sweet treats that are free from dairy, gluten and refined sugar. Pana Chocolate currently has 3000 stockists in 19 countries, primarily in Australia. The book has a slick, standout aesthetic in line with its ethos, and this will set it quite apart from many vegan dessert books on the market.

Barcelona Precincts A Curated Guide to the City's Best Shops, Eateries, Bars and Other Hangouts

C OV E R

Ben Holbrook

DRAF T

Barcelona is a vibrant Mediterranean metropolis of immense cultural pride and heritage. From Picasso to Hemingway, Gaudi to Dali, this sun-struck city has played muse to many great creators in the past, yet its thriving contemporary arts scene continues to deliver a cavalier sense of progress and innovation. It’s this contrast of new and old that enraptures all who visit, and inspires so many to also move here.

Fashion-forward boutiques and independent ateliers rest side by side with design emporiums. Gastronomy plays a major role in the city, and you'll find everything from trendy brunch spots and Michelin-starred marvels to traditional tapas restaurants serving rustic mountain fare and seafood. Catalonia’s ten official wine regions also ensure Barcelona is constantly brimming with tempting wine bars and bodegas, while the booming craft beer scene will rouse even the most hardcore of hopheads. Then, of course, there’s the 5-kilometre stretch of glorious city beaches, where you can take a gentle stroll along the boardwalk, stopping for cocktails and tapas at one of the sandy ‘chiringuitos’ (beach bars). Barcelona Precincts offers a curated list of the very best places to shop, eat and drink in Barcelona’s 12 hottest precincts, including Born, Raval, the Gothic quarter, Eixample and the old fishermen's quarter of Barceloneta. A 'While You're Here' section also covers major sights and attractions in each precinct. Maps make this book a handy and useful guidebook, while the stunning design and imagery creates a beautiful keepsake.

Author Details British travel writer and blogger Ben Holbrook moved to Barcelona from his native Wales in 2009 with the intention of staying for a year. But after discovering the joys of Spanish food and wine, he succumbed to the city’s allure and has no plans to leave. As the son of two travel agents, Ben was a born bon vivant, and has always relished the sense of novelty and adventure that travel provides. Ben contributes to a number of global travel publications and writes luxury hotel reviews for The Telegraph in the UK. He also shares his passion for travel and gastronomy on his popular blog, DriftwoodJournals.com.

Meghan Markle, the star of the long-running TV show Suits , is set to refashion the House of Windsor. Her marriage to Prince Harry in May at Windsor Castle is already the most anticipated event of 2018. The warmth and affection Meghan and Harry displayed during their engagement interview is light years away from the stilted 'whatever love means' conversation with Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. In Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, #1 New York Times bestselling author Andrew Morton tells her compelling story and places her life in context with other American women who have had a dramatic impact on royalty as she forges her way as a truly modern princess.

The dramatic and fascinating story of her family lineage, with a branch from the royal bloodline. The challenges of being bi-racial at the Catholic school she attended growing up. Meghan’s thwarted ambitions and rise to stardom, including her stint as a “suitcase girl” on Deal or No Deal. Her fractured love life — a failed marriage to a fellow actor and the celebrity chef she left him for. The blind date that led to her destiny...

Meghan Markle, the girl from Woodland Hills, has climbed a social mountain to become a royal princess. Little did she know when she posed for pictures outside Buckingham Palace that one day she would be meeting the Queen and marrying her grandson. This is truly a modern day fairy tale.

Author Details Andrew Morton studied history at the University of Sussex, England, with a focus on aristocracy and the 1930s. Morton has written biographies featuring the British Royal Family as well as celebrities, including Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, and Madonna. His bestselling biography of Princess Diana , Diana: Her True Story , met with international acclaim as "the closest we will ever come to her autobiography."

Hello Hello Brendan Wenzel The next book from the author and illustrator of the Caldecott Honour-winning They All Saw a Cat is an ingenious and inspiring celebration of diversity in the natural world – in all its colours, shapes, sizes, differences, and similarities. In this brilliant follow up to the Caldecott Honour-winning They All Saw a Cat, bestselling author Brendan Wenzel presents a chain of animals of dazzling variety. Each one is different from the last, yet each is also linked by at least one common trait: some obvious, some more subtle. As colours and patterns mix and mingle, and as paws and snouts meet, each unexpected encounter celebrates the magnificent diversity of our world – and ultimately paints a story of connection. Joyous, rhythmic text and Wenzel's exuberant art encourage readers of all kinds to delight in nature's infinite differences, and to look for – and marvel at – its gorgeous similarities. It all starts with a simple 'Hello.' Publication

Becoming Barbra The Young Streisand from New York to Paris Bill Eppridge Becoming Barbra presents a never-before-seen look at a star in the making by an award-winning photographer with full access. From the humble beginnings of Barbra Streisand’s career in 1963 to full-fledged stardom in 1966, renowned Life magazine photographer Bill Eppridge had full access to the young singer. He photographed Streisand shopping in a thrift shop; trying on outfits in her apartment; and there’s an appearance on the The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson — then live from New York. Eppridge documented Streisand meeting with producer David Merrick, who wanted her for the starring role in Broadway’s Funny Girl, which catapulted her to celebrity status. By the time Eppridge caught up with Streisand in 1966, she was a star in full orbit. Funny Girl had just wrapped, CBS had signed her to star in three television specials, five of her albums had gone gold and one platinum, and she had received three Grammys and an Emmy. Eppridge photographed Streisand throughout her CBS rehearsals and recording sessions, then went to Paris where he covered her at fashion shows with Marlene Dietrich and Coco Chanel, and captured a Richard Avedon shoot of her for French Vogue.
