2015 SYDNEY NEW YEAR’S EVE – THE CITY OF COLOUR There’s only one place in the world to be for the biggest and best New Year’s Eve – Sydney! Join more than a million people lining the Sydney Harbour foreshore, and millions watching across Australia and around the world, as Sydney welcomes in 2016. The official program of events kicks off at 6pm with acrobatic spills and thrills as air displays take over the skies above Sydney Harbour. After that, fire tugs create striking water displays against the setting sun, followed by a Welcome to Country ceremony reflecting our respect for the traditional custodians and their connection to this land.

The much-anticipated 9pm family fireworks illuminate Sydney Harbour in dramatic fashion with the bridge as centrepiece and at 10pm an enchanting Harbour of Light Parade® glides across the waters.

Watch the live broadcast on ABC1 from 8.30pm. Official radio broadcaster 104.1 2DayFM hosts the event live from Sydney Harbour from 6pm.

SURRY HILLS, DARLINGHURST, KINGS CROSS AND PADDINGTON Inner-city cool meets genteel urban style in an area of Sydney that embraces individuality, community and creativity.

SOUTH
From the grand re-imagining and revitalisation of Pyrmont’s harbourside warehouses and wharves to the quirky, alternative vibe of university suburbs such as Glebe and Newtown, Sydney’s inner-west is painted with a broad brush in vibrant colours.
An area on the move, Sydney’s south is shedding its gritty industrial past without skipping a beat. It’s emerging, renewed and refreshed, as a centre for cutting-edge arts ventures, grassroots dining venues and creative entrepreneurs.
PYRMONT, GLEBE AND NEWTOWN
CHIPPENDALE, REDFERN, ALEXANDRIA AND GREEN SQUARE
CENTRAL
THE ROCKS AND DARLING HARBOUR, WALSH BAY, HAYMARKET AND CHINATOWN Clustered round a glittering harbour, Sydney’s centre is all about diversity – from sky-high towers and laneway bars to bustling Asian food halls and chic boutiques. A year-round calendar of major events and sheer variety of galleries, museums and theatres adds to the mix.

Are Your Hormones Making You Fat? Imagine waking up every morning to the sound of your alarm, excited and happy to be starting a new day. When you look in the mirror you admire your body. Everyone tells you how great you’re looking and asks what your secret is. Sound too good to be true? If you, like many other women, don’t feel this way, you may have a hormonal imbalance. Research has documented that over 40 per cent of women have an undiagnosed underactive thyroid gland. If you feel tired all the time, crave sugar, use alcohol and coffee to lift yourself, retain weight around your middle and feel the cold, you could be suffering from this problem. What Does Your Thyroid Do, and What Does This Mean For You? The thyroid gland is the major player in controlling how many calories you burn. It produces hormones that control the body’s metabolism. If your thyroid is underactive (hypothyroidism) it’s almost impossible to lose that spare tyre around your middle, no matter how many carbs you cut out or how many hours you spend on the treadmill. Blood Testing Current blood testing methods don’t tell the whole story. Blood tests (TSH) can only measure how much thyroid hormone you have in your blood – they can’t measure how well your hormones are working. So, if you do have a thyroid problem, it may not always be picked up. New Way of Testing American thyroid specialists, Dr. Konrad Kail and Dr. Daryl Turner have developed a quick and non-invasive medical thyroid screening test, that’s been used by US doctors for the past seven years to accurately diagnose thyroid issues. The good news is, once your thyroid function is accurately diagnosed, the medication and nutrients you need to get your thyroid balanced can be established. With a balanced thyroid your energy will increase, you will lose weight easily, and you’ll feel happier in yourself. Your health is your greatest asset, so, if you suspect that your thyroid isn’t quite right, don’t put off getting tested, you deserve to feel fantastic every day.

Hail Mary An old cocktail has been modernised by smart, young bartenders I F Y O U ’ V E E V E R H A D A B I G N I G H T O U T, chances are you’ve followed it up with a Bloody Mary. Thought to possess restorative powers, the vodka-soaked tomatobased brunch cocktail is the perfect balance of sweet and savoury, with a little salt thrown in for good measure. Recipes vary greatly, as does the garnish, but in its most familiar form, a Bloody Mary is comprised of vodka, tomato juice, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. The Bloody Mary has a boozy cure-all reputation. Tomato juice is thought to settle the stomach while offering a much-needed nutritional hit of vitamins and minerals, salt restores lost electrolytes, and vodka, the ‘hair of the dog’ alcohol injection, is said to relieve head and body aches WORDS

brought on by a night of over-indulgence. Parisian bartender Fernand Petiot is believed to have created the first tomato cocktail while at Harry’s New York Bar, in Paris. After experimenting with vodka in the early 1920s, he settled on a mix of half vodka and half canned tomato juice. An American customer then came up with its temporary name, Bucket of Blood, after a club in Chicago. A decade or so later, after prohibition had come to an end, Fernand was poached by New York’s Hotel St Regis, which, deciding the original name was too vulgar, reinvented the cocktail as the Red Snapper. Fernand is believed to have then added Worcestershire sauce
and black and cayenne pepper as an improvement on the original recipe. The story, though plausible, is highly contested, as tomato juice is thought not to have been commercially available until the late 1920s – though in Fernand’s defence it fits in with the Red Snapper timeline. Another contender for the first Bloody Mary is bartender Henry Zbikiewicz, who is thought to have paired vodka and tomato juice in the 1930s at New York’s 21 Club. However, comedian and 21 Club regular, George Jessel, laid claim to the drink, his declaration confirmed by a New York Herald Tribune columnist who, in 1939, referred to George’s creation as a pick-me-up called a Bloody Mary.

THE CURE Left: Bloody Mary from Le Bon Ton in Melbourne. Right and below: Bloody Mary’s, Sydney
As for the name, its true origins are no clearer than the deep red juice of its namesake fruit. Some suggest that Fernand re-named the drink after a waitress at Bucket of Blood, while others suggest it was after Mary Tudor, the 16th century Catholic Queen of England known for killing Protestants during her reign. Bartenders worldwide have continued to tweak the drink, making the modern-day Bloody Mary as versatile as ever. Bar Mimitsuka, in a basement in Tokyo’s Ginza district, goes for the purist approach. To a base of freshly muddled and strained tomatoes, head bartender Fumiyasu Mimitsuka adds French vodka, and a drop of house-made chilli oil. It is served in a Himalayan rock salt-rimmed glass with a single ice cube and extra drops of chilli oil can be added to suit the customer’s heat level desires. By contrast, Sydney café Bloody

Mary’s takes inspiration from the US trend for over-the-top garnishes. The self-professed masters of the modern-day Bloody Mary offer 10 versions, including a DIY. Their biggest seller is the chilli-infused, vodka-based Bloody Hell, which comes with a shrimp, a brioche bun cheeseburger slider, and spicy buffalo wing garnish. “The Bloody Mary is known to be a hangover cure so we had a bit of fun
with the shrimp, slider, and chicken wing on top,” owner Cinta Rockey explains. “It’s a meal and a drink; for me, that’s everything.” Melbourne-based hawker-style restaurant Hanoi Hannah also has fun with the garnish. Its Vietnamese Bloody Mary combines Tabasco, Sriracha sauce and Worcestershire sauce with Yuzu soya sauce, complementing the flavours with Vietnamese mint and Thai basil. A garnish of three stacked vegetarian spring rolls completes the drink, with the fried goodness to help with a hangover. Evan Stanley from Melbourne’s Le Bon Ton is a big fan of the Bloody Mary’s versatility. “One of the best things about the Bloody Mary is how infinitely adaptable it is,” he says.

Bloody Mary’s Classic Bloody Mary INGREDIENTS • • • • • • smoked in-house are blitzed with charred red capsicum and fresh celery. Red wine is added for a berry burst, a touch of sugar to tie everything together, and pickle juice for a subtle vinegar note. Ketel One vodka is used as the alcoholic backbone, for its big mouthfeel, garnished with dill pickle, fresh lemon, cracked pepper and Old Bay seasoning. Though Evan believes a Bloody Mary doesn’t have to be a hangover cocktail, he sees its benefits as one. “It’s kind of got everything you need at that point of the day,” he says. “You get to sweat out a little of the toxins with the chilli, it’s got tomato juice so you can pretend you’re feeling healthy after a big night out on the booze, and it’s got a little bit of hair of the dog. It doesn’t have to be a hangover drink, but it’s pretty well suited for that purpose.” Greg Sanderson, General Manager

Sweet and sound They may be free from dairy and sugar, but raw desserts are proving as decadent as their traditional rivals IT ’S A CAKE MUCH LIKE ANY OTHER pouting for its close-up on Instagram. Layers of oozing chocolate, vanilla marscapone and boysenberry, it looks like the kind of thing you’d serve for a special occasion, eat with gluttonous abandon, then feel guilty about afterwards. But wait, there’s a catch. It’s a raw dessert, and apparently it’s even – gasp – good for you. Ladies and gentlemen, introducing The Raw Kitchen’s gateau. The Auckland café serves a menu exclusively plant-based and vegan, gluten and refined sugar-free, and it’s part of a growing movement away from cooking food. Yes, really. Raw food – the official definition is food that hasn’t been heated to more than 48 degrees centigrade - is a trend that’s been bubbling away on the eating fringes throughout the 20th century and is now insinuating itself into the mainstream. Adherents champion the benefits of food – principally nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables - that’s as close to its natural state as possible (although fermented foods such as sauerkraut are acceptable) and reject all refined and processed foods.

It might sound paradoxical that dessert, the last bastion of pure indulgence, should have the health wand waved at it. Certainly anyone given to the traditional delights of cream, butter and sugar could be forgiven for harbouring a doubt: is raw a bore? But raw foodists insist you can have your cake and eat it too. Guiltfree, they claim, doesn’t have to mean taste-free. “A lot of our regular customers take things home to test out on their non-raw friends to see their reaction. Most of them have no idea it’s anything other than a normal dessert,” says The Raw Kitchen’s Olivia Scott (and just for Jetstar.com

the record, her chocolate gateau is made with raw cacao, cashews, coconut oil and vanilla bean). “I never say they’re exactly the same as the traditional recipes on which they’re based because they’re not,” says Emily Samyue of Melbourne raw dessert bar Raw Trader. “The textures are slightly different, for one. But that’s our tagline: decadence without the guilt.” Raw desserts aren’t “lite” in the calorie-counting way: the fats present in the abundance of nuts and coconut mean raw desserts can be high on the kilojoules, but raw foodists point out they’re “good” calories rather than “bad”. “Nutritionally dense” is how Emily puts it. “It’s high in vitamins and minerals. It’s a longer lasting energy source and you don’t get that rapid sugar spike that leaves you feeling exhausted a short time later. “Most people are surprised by them. You can have a piece of raw cheesecake (made with nuts rather than dairy) and feel full but not feel heavy. It’s amazing to actually feel good after eating a dessert.” And consider this for heresy: even chocolate can be categorised as “good” for you, if it’s of the raw

A mere three years of trading has seen the products stocked by 3000 retailers across the globe and dedicated shops opened in Melbourne and Sydney selling items such as the Vespa Wheel - a raw, vegan version of the traditional Wagon Wheel with soft marshmallow centre wedged between jam, buckwheat biscuits and coated in chocolate. “We’ve been told for years that highly processed, highly sugared chocolate was the real thing, and that’s not what Pana Chocolate is,” says Amber. “We produce a rich,

silky, amazing tasting dark chocolate that’s all natural and uses only raw organic ingredients to retain high nutrient levels.” Want to try this one at home? Raw desserts, unlike their cooked counterparts, don’t require any specialist equipment (except perhaps a dehydrator, which uses a low heat and a fan to remove water from food while keeping its nutritional profile intact – it’s said to create that comforting chewy, toasty effect in raw foods, as well as kid-friendly snacks such as fruit leathers). “A dehydrator and a blender, that’s pretty much it,” says Olivia, who adds that while plenty of raw “cooks” use syrups (such as fruit or maple) P H OTO S PA N A C H O C O L AT E , R AW T R A D E R , A B O U T L I F E

to sweeten their food, she typically uses dates. “We can make a beautiful caramel out of them, too. Unlike a syrup, they’re a whole food. That makes it nutritionally sounder.” And while traditional patisserie is subject to meticulous weighing and measuring, raw desserts are a far more free-wheeling affair where a pinch of this and a handful of that is just fine. Just make sure you taste as you go. “The raw food movement is super creative,” says Emily. “You never stop learning and experimenting. All my recipes are original, and what I really love about this style of cooking – or non-cooking, really - is that the sky’s the limit on all sorts of creative

MOVIDA BAL I
Hola! Bali Spanish bar and restaurant MoVida has a stunning new home in Bali’s upmarket Seminyak T H E Q U I E T A C H I E V E R behind Australia’s tapas revolution, Frank Camorra, was born in Barcelona, raised in Australia, and has been leading the charge on all things Iberian since the original MoVida Bar Y Tapas sign planted its flag on Melbourne’s Hosier Lane a decade ago. The empire has since grown to include Melbourne siblings MoVida Next Door and MoVida Aqui, a Sydney flagship and outposts at Melbourne and Sydney airports. Now comes news that the MoVida brand is jetting to Bali, with a restaurant opening this month in Seminyak thanks to a joint venture with the owners of the hipster-magnet beach club Potato Head. SO FRANK, WHY BALI? We’ve had offers over the years to (open) overseas but it was never quite right. It’s too difficult to open a restaurant in Asia without great local partners. We were contacted by the owners of Potato Head through a mutual friend and it all went from there. They have a huge vision. We visited Potato Head for the first time and it was just full on.
WILL IT BE SIMILAR TO MOVIDA I N AU ST R A L I A? It will be very different to the usual MoVida style. (The building) is typically Balinese and open to the air – covered, but there’s no air-conditioning. It’s beautifully constructed, using traditional materials such as Balinese bricks. The main MoVida elements are the bar and the open kitchen, plus the usual equipment – the Josper oven, the plancha grill.
S O YO U ’ L L B E S P E N D I N G PA R T O F YOUR YEAR IN BALI… SOUNDS TOUGH. Our MoVida chef Jimmy Parker will be in charge and I’ll be there around three times a year. It’s a great place to take the kids and it’s only six hours’ flying time away.

There’s yellowfin tuna farming and we discovered they simply throw out the heads, so we’ve got those – we’ll be doing tuna jowls with a rich pork bone glaze. The theme is a lot lighter.

BANISH BUMPS You can make cellulite appear less of a problem by simply boosting circulation and detoxifying your body. A healthy diet and at least three cardiovascular workouts weekly will quickly minimise cellulite’s appearance. Drink plenty of water and eliminate alcohol, tea, coffee and junk foods. As cellulite is directly related to toxin build-up in the lymphatic fluid tissues, it makes sense to try to shift the trapped fluid. Enter dry body brushing. “It exfoliates the epidermis, allowing toxins to be released through the skin via sweat,” says naturopath and nutritionist Saimaa Miller, from The Last Resort, in Bondi, WORDS s ona
Sydney. “It also boosts circulation and removes any scaly, dry skin.” Finish every shower with a cold-water rinse to tone skin and boost blood flow. H Y D R AT E A N D B A L A N C E “Adequate moisture is the key to beautiful skin,” Saimaa says. Drinking plenty of water is essential. “When the body is in a better state of balance, it will function more efficiently to remove wastes and encourage optimum cellular activity,” she says. “This in turn leads to glowing skin.” H I N T : Add 30ml of chlorophyll to a litre of water to enhance hydration and alkalise your system, advises Saimaa.

FAKE, DON’ T BAKE An all-over golden glow can help minimise a multitude of body insecurities but the only safe option is faking it. Try a daily moisturiser with a hint of tanning lotion. It will give you an all over sunkissed tan that deepens with each application. Results are virtually foolproof as the creams are quickly absorbed, drying in minutes. SALUTE THE SUN No matter how hard you try, it’s impossible to avoid some UV contact throughout the day, so choose quality sun care that doubles as make-up, such as a high-SPF tinted sun block, or a lipstick containing sunscreen.

GROOMING
Short, but sweet They may be the go-to summer outfit, but as Peter Barrett discovers, shorts can be a serious sartorial challenge
THE SHORT SHRIFT 1
The three-quarter Capri Are they pants? Are they shorts? Are they a 1990s throwback and blot on the history of humankind? Yes. They are all these things and should have no place in your wardrobe. Particularly if paired with a triple-stripe Adidas slide. 2
T H E A R R I VA L O F WA R M E R weather should bring nothing but easy, relaxed pleasures but every year there’s a fashion dilemma many men struggle with: shorts. What’s the correct length? What shoes should you wear? Socks? Sandals? Both?! To address these anxieties we asked some men who truly know how to rock a pair of shorts for their thoughts. First, while in recent years we’ve seen shorts getting shorter (great on slim, younger bodies), a safer bet for length is just above the knee, says Henry
32

32-33_Insider Grooming.indd 32
Bucks’ Managing Director Tim Cecil. “The trend is going back to neat shorts, dressier shorts but at an appropriate length.” As a general rule, opt for no socks or ‘no show’ low-cut socks. Vincent Wu, co-owner of Incu, says high-top shoes don’t work with shorts, so stick with low-profile runners. “I don’t particularly like the socks and sandals thing; some people can carry it well but you have to be very confident.” Adam Coombes, from independent label Kloke, likes no/low-socks with
derby shoes or brogues. “I’m also into dudes at the moment who are wearing a short just above the knee with a little double-striped sock and a sneaker,” he says. Finally, Craig Webb, men’s trend director at Cotton On, says you can’t beat the washed chino short for versatility. “I call them the ‘every guy’ short. You can dress them up or dress them down, you can put it with a nice short-sleeve or long-sleeve shirt, a pair of boat shoes or trainers and it can look really smart, yet casual.”
Short shorts on the short and plump Yes, we know you want to stay up-to-date with the latest trends, but you need the athletic pins to match. A better option for your figure might be a baggier pair of shorts with no socks (socks can make your legs look shorter). 3
Shorts, socks and sandals Synonymous with geography teachers and German tourists, this look should only be attempted by the most confidently ironic short-wearing men. Even then it’s likely you’ve made a horrible, horrible mistake. I L LU ST R AT I O N ST UA R T H O L M E S

FILM
When Charlie met Snoopy Sixty-five years young, the Peanuts characters are as loved as ever
MEET THE GANG Snoopy, Charlie Brown and the cast of Peanuts return to charm a new generation of fans
WHEN CHARLES M. SCHULZ, affectionately known as Sparky, penned his first Peanuts comic strip in 1950, he couldn’t have known the impact his rag-tag bunch of characters would have. The world has changed a lot in 65 years, but the beagle Snoopy, his owner Charlie Brown and the whole Peanuts gang remain reassuringly familiar. Several generations have grown up with the ageless comic strip, and the next is about to meet Snoopy for the first time next month. When director Steve Martino first took on The Peanuts Movie, he was acutely conscious of the delicate task on his hands. “I knew there was a great responsibility that came with bringing (the characters) to the big screen,” he says. “When I would tell
38

38-39_Snoopy.indd 38
people I was working on a Peanuts movie, the first thing out of their mouth was: ‘That’s great! I love Peanuts.’ They would proceed to share a story about how the characters had touched them. Then they would always follow up by saying: ‘Well don’t screw it up!’” Peanuts was one of the most influential comics of all time, with a gentle honesty that hooked people in as children and then stayed with them throughout their adult years. So what was it about Peanuts that stood the test of time? As Sparky’s wife Jeannie Schulz explains: “The characters transcend generations because my husband pulled on insecurities and fears we all have, the little moments of happiness that we celebrate. My husband exposed the foibles that
we all live with. And because we recognise them, they’re funny.” It was this ability to relate to the characters that appealed to the 355 million people around the world who read the strip daily in print. Whether it was the earnest Charlie Brown pining over his unrequited love, the bossy Lucy dispensing inaccurate advice, or the artistic Schroeder worshipping his idol Beethoven, there was something relatable and inherently human in every character. Made with affection and reverence by Blue Sky Studio, best known for their work on Ice Age and Horton Hears a Who!, The Peanuts Movie is about to create a new generation of life-long fans. The film hits Australian cinemas on 1 January. WORDS KRYSIA BONKOWSKI

A VERY BIG DAY OUT Whether it’s giant fruit, or a giant fish, Australia and New Zealand are home to some embarrassingly big sculptures
AUSTRALIA
THE BIG PINEAPPLE
THE BIG MERINO
THE BIG PRAWN
THE BIG BANANA
W H E R E : The Sunshine Coast, QLD w n 1971 A survivor of fire, cyclone and occasional neglect since it opened more than 40 years ago, the 16-metre high Big Pineapple is Australia’s biggest big thing and has been heritage-listed since 2009. There’s an indoor and outdoor market every Saturday which is worth a look, too.
W H E R E : Goulburn, NSW w n 1985 A monument to the region’s agricultural heritage, the 15-metre tall Big Merino towers over the surrounding countryside. Incredibly, when the 1992 Hume Highway re-routing impacted passing trade, the super-sized sheep was simply moved up the road. And no, a gigantic sheepdog was not required.
W H E R E : Ballina, NSW w n 1989 Australia is home to a number of colossal crustaceans but our favourite is Ballina’s ninemetre high, 35-tonne Big Prawn. It actually used to be half a prawn, until a 2013 makeover – a kind of Queer Eye for the Prawn Guy – added a tail and a fresh coat of paint for the princely sum of $400,000.
W H E R E : Coffs Harbour, NSW w n 1964 What began as a simple roadside stall on a banana plantation is now an enterprise attracting almost a million visitors a year. The chocolate-coated bananas are still a delicious treat, but Australia’s first big thing is also home to an ice-skating rink, mini golf course and a brand new water park.

hey’re the kitsch pit stops on countless family holidays; roadside tourist destinations defined simply by their abnormal size. The ‘big thing’ phenomenon sprang up in 1920s America alongside big cars and big
highways. Roadside traders needed to attract business that would otherwise whiz by and what better way to do this than to build a ginormous sculpture for people to pose next to, and perhaps, take a look at your wares? In the ‘60s, Australia and New
Zealand caught the big bug. Today, on both sides of the Tasman, dozens of small towns are home to an eclectic array of over-sized oddities. Here are eight of our weird and wonderful favourites to look out for on your next roadtrip.
NEW ZEALAND
THE BIG SALMON
THE BIG KIWIFRUIT
THE BIG CARROT
THE BIG L&P BOTTLE
W H E R E : Rakaia, South Island W H E N : 1991 Rakaia is the selfproclaimed “Salmon Capital of New Zealand” and in case you weren’t convinced, there’s a whopping 12-metre high salmon statue to greet you. At 2.2 tonnes, the only way to hook this monster is with a crane (actually, three cranes were needed during a 2005 renovation).
W H E R E : Te Puke, North Island W H E N : 1987 This is actually an enormous slice of kiwifruit, the design incorporating dozens of Maori canoe paddles, called waka hoe, to symbolise Te Puke’s Maori heritage. In 1998 the Big Kiwifruit featured on a series of New Zealand postage stamps celebrating small town icons.
W H E R E : Ohakune, North Island W H E N : 1984 Looming over Ohakune like a rabbit’s hallucinatory fantasy is this rare example of an over-sized vegetable. Originally a prop from a TV ad, the Big Carrot is a proud monument to the region’s market gardening history. In 2011 the paint job turned black in support of the All Blacks’ Rugby World Cup campaign.
W H E R E : Paeroa, North Island W H E N : 1967 Lemon and Paeroa, a popular soft drink known as L&P, is immortalised in its home town in the form of a seven-metre high bottle. This bottle actually began life as a rocket, constructed at the height of the space race. A lick of paint a few years later saw the rocket recycled as the now-famous bottle.

New Zealand’s smallest national park has something for everyone, from outdoor adventures to cute wildlife and beautiful, sun-drenched beaches WORDS SARAH BENNETT
B
lanketing a stretch of coast west of Nelson, at the top of the South Island, Abel Tasman is the smallest of New Zealand’s 13 national parks. It’s also the most popular for its heavenly blend of beaches and adventure in stunning surrounds. With sparkling seas, hidden inlets, golden sands, sculpted granite cliffs and lush forest alive with songbirds it’s no wonder Abel Tasman often tops visitors’ hit lists.

The classic way to explore it is on the Coast Track, one of New Zealand’s 14 “Great Walks”, staying overnight in huts or campsites. But this is by no means the only way to experience the park’s highlights. A raft of kayak, cruise and adventure tours make it easy to tailor your trip, whether you’re a lazy beach bum or an eager beaver looking for an adrenaline buzz. Let’s start at square one, the trail that has made the park famous. PHOTO GETTY IMAGES

Walk the Great Walk Abel Tasman Coast Track is a 60-kilometre journey of three to five days for reasonably fit walkers, although it can easily be enjoyed in day trips, too. Some sections trace the water’s edge, others climb over low headlands cloaked in sweet-smelling beech forest and blessed with frequent lookouts. There are plenty of opportunities to swim from idyllic beaches, and detour to sights such as Cleopatra’s Pool and Separation Point seal colony. Staying in the park overnight is a treat, complete with stargazing, campfires and a joyous dawn chorus. Walkers can sleep in four huts and 19 campsites located in picturesque spots such as Anchorage, a glorious bay popular with day-trippers, but there are also two private lodges and a boat-based backpackers hostel (moored at Anchorage) for those who prefer home comforts. Guided walking tours of various lengths include all necessary accommodation and food.
PA R A D I S E FOUND Whether on foot or on the water, Abel Tasman reveals stunning scenes at every turn
Kayak the coast Sea kayaking along Abel Tasman’s coastline allows visitors to admire the national park from both land and sea, as well as the crystal-clear depths inhabited by penguins, seals and dolphins. Paddlers journey around granite cliffs, craggy points and bushy headlands, interspersed with deserted beaches and coves concealing entrances to tranquil inlets. Great Walk accommodation can be booked overnight, and there are many easy landing sites for walking, swimming and lingering in the sun in between. Numerous kayak tour companies offer guided trips ranging from a few hours to three days, as well as rentals. Double kayaks, known as “divorce boats” for reasons that will become obvious, are the norm, and make these adventures accessible to a wide range of ages and abilities.

NEW ZEALAND Top tips PLAN AHEAD Most Abel Tasman adventures start from Kaiteriteri or Marahau, both about an hour’s drive from Nelson Airport. Great Walk huts and campsites must be booked in advance year-round. See greatwalks.co.nz. MAKE IT A SHORE THING Boat and combo-trip operators include Wilsons (abeltasman. co.nz) and Abel Tasman Sea Shuttle (abeltasmanseashuttles.co.nz).
AQUA ADVENTURES
Go cruising A raft of boats, including comfortable cruisers and sailing catamarans, offer sightseeing tours from two hours to all day, most of which depart from Kaiteriteri. They make it easy to explore the park without raising a sweat, with knowledgeable guides answering such vital questions as “Who split Split Apple Rock?” and “Will I get my feet wet?” With incredibly rich natural and human history, there’s way more to this place than meets the eye. A highlight of most tours is the trip out to Tonga Island, a rocky knob cloaked in forest about a kilometre off the coast. Lying within one of New Zealand’s 10 Coastal Gems marine reserves, its waters are home to many protected species including super-cute fur seals (kekeno) that loll around Tonga’s wild shore, and penguins that may be seen popping up amid the waves.
Explore the park the way you want with the wide range of activities on offer
WHEN TO GO The region’s friendly climate makes the Abel Tasman a year-round destination, with some of the best wildlife-spotting in winter. S L I P, S L O P, S L A P In summer sunblock and a hat are essential, as is insect repellent for pesky sandflies. For information about visiting Nelson, see nelsonnz.com.
Go canyoning Injecting a shot of adrenaline into the Abel Tasman experience are canyoning trips, which offer the chance to explore a hidden wonderland few visitors get to see. Run by Toine Houtenbos and his team at Abel Tasman Canyons (abeltasmancanyons.co.nz), the day-long trip – suitable for water-confident people of average fitness aged 12 or over – begins with a boat cruise to Anchorage, gateway to the amazing Torrent River canyon, followed by an amble along the Coast Track while dressed in a wetsuit. Intrepid adventurers then begin their descent through the granite-lined canyon, wading through waist-deep corridors and rock-hopping over shallows, with abseiling and zip-lining thrown in, along with several thrilling leaps and slides into fantasy-land pools. Although quite freaky at first, the canyon soon reveals itself to be a kind of unruly, oversized water park, but beautiful and infinitely more fun. We’d do it again in a flash!

HAWKE’S BAY
Bursting with local produce that fills baskets to overflowing at weekend growers’ markets, Hawke’s Bay is a gourmet paradise. Big, boisterous reds dominate the local wine scene and an exciting and innovative restaurant and bar scene presides. It’s easy to explore, too, with a vast network of off-road cycle trails that wind in and out of pretty vineyards, restaurants and cafés between Napier and Hastings.
Napier Rebuilt after being razed by a massive earthquake in 1931, Napier’s elegant art deco architecture is world famous. The Art Deco Trust holds regular walking tours of the city and from historic Napier Prison, you can still see the path of destruction the earthquake took. It’s a bustling city filled with designer boutiques, galleries, hip restaurants and bars. Bistronomy, James Beck’s eatery in Hastings Street, is light and airy, with an inventive and sustainable menu of “raw”, “protein” and “mineral” options that fuses bistro food and fine dining. There’s a long, bamboo meal counter where diners can watch the open kitchen in action; two sizes of wine by the glass; and neat touches such as conical flasks for wine decanters and beakers for vases.

It’s a bustling city filled with designer boutiques, galleries, hip restaurants and bars. Around the corner in a singlestorey art deco building with outdoor seating, local favourite Mister D has a modern café-style menu, with bread, pastries and pasta made fresh daily on the premises. On the must-try list is Mister D’s famously decadent injectable doughnut that comes with a choice of custard, jelly or chocolatefilled syringe. Behind Mister D is Monica Loves, a small bar tucked away down a once-
disused lane. It features industrial design and a good selection of craft beers, cocktails and wines with tasty bar eats from the kitchen at Mister D. For a hit of retail therapy, those in the know head to Aroha and Friends on Ossian Street for edgy New Zealand designers Karen Walker, Zambesi, Miss Crabb and Nom*D. While here, fill up on delicious pastries, sandwiches and coffees at FG Smith Eatery next door. Keen foodies on a budget should head to Pacifica, winner of this year’s Cuisine NZ Good Food Awards for best regional restaurant, for a set five-course degustation menu that changes daily.

Markets Havelock North, Hastings “Eat where the locals eat” is a motto worth embracing in Havelock North. Home to a vibrant casual dining scene, “the Village” sits near the base of Te Mata Peak in the city of Hastings. Pipi Café, in Joll Road, is a must-visit. A local institution, it serves crusty, good pizzas in a 1950s princess-style interior in hot pink shades. It’s licensed, too. Down the road, the local village vibe continues at Deliciosa, a modern tapas and wine bar, and Mamacita, a funky Mexican restaurant decorated with more than a nod to artist Frida Kahlo. Coffee addicts can get their fix at Wright & Co, with organic coffee

During the weekend, farmers’ markets are in full swing in Napier, Hastings, Taradale and Havelock North, stocking everything from plump, seasonal fruits to freshly baked breads, piquant cheeses, pickles and preserves. The oldest and biggest is at Hastings showgrounds every Sunday morning.
Wineries With more than 80 wineries in Hawke’s Bay, it’s easy to while away a few days at cellar doors. The region’s cold climate produces full-bodied reds and rich, complex chardonnays. In the Gimblett Gravels region, Trinity Hill and neighbour, Te Awa Winery hold tastings of single-estate
wines such as syrah, chardonnay and merlot-cabernet-sauvignon blends. At Te Awa, visitors can dine on Middle Eastern and Mediterraneaninspired share plates in the laidback restaurant overlooking the vines. Further south, on the Te Awanga coast, breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and Kidnapper Cliffs are reason enough to visit Elephant Hill Winery. Another is the restaurant, with modern white décor and contemporary menu, voted runner-up winery restaurant of the year at the 2015 Cuisine NZ Good Food Awards.

DANCER CHRIS OFAN0A, 21 Like many kids, seven-year-old Chris Ofanoa was transfixed by Michael Jackson’s slick moves, but unlike most Jackson wannabes, his attempts to do the Moonwalk ignited a passion for dance that led to teen hip-hop competitions, a dance degree at Unitec and now, an apprenticeship with The New Zealand Dance Company. But Chris is humble about his achievement. “I was speechless when I got the call,” he says. The New Zealand Dance Company has no such doubts: “Chris has the potential to be one of New Zealand’s brightest stars,” boasts the website.

Kharl’s thing is bling and although he has a small ready-to-wear collection, his limited edition custom-made pieces are designed for the glamour dresser and his clients include beauty pageant contestants and TV stars.

“I know it sounds cheesy, but (my cakes) make people happy”
BAKER
Jordan Rondel never studied the art of patisserie but her baking talents have created demand for her sensational cakes throughout Auckland. What started as a way to “relax” after coming home from uni quickly became an obsession. Jordan launched The Caker in 2010 at 21, primarily selling cakes through her blog. Social media, particularly Instagram, has since fuelled the business. Cakes are ordered online or are available at cafés. Despite her love of traditional baking (her great-grandfather had a patisserie in Paris), Jordan is moving towards a healthier approach and even has a line of indulgent vegan cake mixes. “It’s all I wanted to do,” she says. “I know it sounds cheesy, but (my cakes) make people happy.”

JACKIE VAN BEEK, 39
ANNA SMAILL, 39
NAT CHESHIRE, 34
You might know her as Pauline from the New Zealand TV comedy series Funny Girls, but Aucklandbased Jackie Van Beek is more than (just!) a talented actor and comedienne. After fine-tuning her film-making skills with six short films including the award-winning Go the Dogs and Uphill, this year Jackie directed her first feature film (and wrote the screenplay). Due for release next year, The Inland Road stars Scottish actor David Elliot and a local cast including Gloria Popata, Jodie Hillock and Chelsie Preston-Crayford, and was filmed in and around Queenstown. Of her ability to juggle multiple projects at the one time Jackie says: “There’s a very positive spirit in New Zealand, it’s contagious and makes you feel that anything is possible.”
Making the Man Booker longlist is a nice way to make your debut as a novelist. Picked from 156 books in consideration for the 2015 international Englishlanguage fiction prize, The Chimes is a London-set dystopian story where words are forbidden and the world is controlled by a vast musical instrument. Making the long-list was “a huge shot out of the blue” says Anna, who trained as a violinist and began her writing career with poetry. While The Chimes was written in London, Anna is now back in Wellington and working on her second novel – a story set in Japan and New Zealand.
Nat Cheshire once thought architecture ‘ridiculous’ but his teenage disdain soon turned to fascination, and despite being a little intimidated by following in his architect father’s footsteps, he joined forces with his dad to form Cheshire Architects. The company’s work has found many fans - from winning Home magazine’s 2014 Home of the Year for their “tiny house” to the design for downtown Auckland’s Britomart Showcases. “There’s a growing sense of pride in Auckland that wasn’t there before and other projects have picked up on that spark,” says Nat. “It’s about reinventing what the city could be.”

JON THOM, 25 If you follow opera you’ll know that young painters are supposed to starve in garrets, not have their work purchased by private collectors with an eye for up-and-coming artists. But it’s probably easier to avoid the opera cliché if your creativity is matched by a keen entrepreneurial spirit. When his painting took off, Jon realised his work was becoming less accessible to his friends, so he decided to put his art on t-shirts and the label Moodie Tuesday was born. A print studio and gallery followed and Jon is now recognised as one of Dunedin’s most successful emerging artists. A quick browse through his Instagram posts reveals his distinctive portraits and multi-media works. “(Social media means) your audience is now the world, not just locals. When they enjoy the work it motivates me too,” he says.

Cuisine scene Nelson’s food and drink scene thrives on a wealth of delicious local produce, an appetite for international cuisine and an eye for trends. The result is a diverse, dynamic dining experience dishing up everything from gelati, sushi and Swedish pastries to contemporary shareplate menus flush with truffled fries, quinoa and kale cannelloni. Head to DeVille (devillecafe.co.nz) for its leafy courtyard, killer coffee and scrumptious baking. For a topend treat try Hopgood’s (hopgoods.co.nz), although there are plenty of other contenders, including several winery restaurants.
Great taste trail Did someone say wine? You betcha! Dotted through picturesque countryside are about 30 wineries (winenelson.co.nz) with more than 20 cellar doors open for tastings. Nearly a dozen craft breweries (craftbrewingcapital.co.nz) make the most of local hops. In their midst are berry farms, produce stalls, out-of-theway cafés and country pubs. If all of this is making your mouth water, find yourself a bike and ride Tasman’s Great Taste Trail. Running between Nelson and neighbouring visitor hot spots such as Motueka, Kaiteriteri Beach and the Moutere Valley, this easy-going cycleway is a fun way to take in the sights while soaking up inland and coastal scenery. Handy bike hire and shuttle services make it easy to tailor a trip to suit your interests, whether it's wine tasting, art galleries, or just chilling out at the beach.

Blissful beaches Yes, there are some of those, too. Nelson lies on v-shaped Tasman Bay, stretching 120 kilometres between Abel Tasman National Park to the west and the Marlborough Sounds in the east, and lined with a captivating mix of coastal settlements, nature reserves and beaches. Nelson city’s beach is Tahunanui, three kilometres of sand backed by a grassy recreation reserve and perfect for a beach-bum day. It’s also a must for water sports enthusiasts, so if stand-up paddleboarding or kite-surfing are on your bucket list, “Tahuna” could be just the ticket. Further west are Rabbit Island and Kaiteriteri, both on the Great Taste Trail, plus the unforgettable beaches of Abel Tasman (see page 44).

Art and craft galleries Wearable art and classic cars When it comes to matters of style, Nelson shows off its exuberant side at the World of WearableArt (WOW) and Classic Cars Museum, the spiritual home of a hugely successful annual garment competition hotly contested by overseas and New Zealand artists. Held in Wellington over two weeks every September and October, the amazing creations for the WOW awards can be seen in the museum, including works by recent award winners and eye-popping pieces from years past. This rip-roaring experience is amped up by the adjacent Classic Cars Gallery, a vast hangar containing mint-condition vehicles dating from 1908.

Bizarre bras and stylish cars are just some of Nelson’s eye candy. Its excellent public gallery, the Suter Art Gallery – in temporary premises while the building is restored – is the cornerstone of a central city cluster detailed in the "Art & Craft Nelson City" map. It includes Lord of the Rings jeweller Jens Hansen, South Street Gallery’s fine potters, and Fibre Spectrum where you're likely to find the most beautiful woollen beanie you’ve ever clapped eyes on. Such creativity springs from every corner of the region and includes galleries of various sizes, village craft collectives, a leafy sculpture park and the renowned Höglund Art Glass studio. Much can be discovered on the scenic driving routes and cycle trails not far from downtown Nelson, which are lined with characterfilled country cafés and wineries. nelsonartsguide.co.nz, nelsonartists.co.nz

Saturday market
Centre of New Zealand?
For a super-size portion of food and art, with people-watching on the side, make a beeline for the Saturday market. Held in a pleasant downtown car park, it’s a bamboozling line-up of 200 stalls stocking everything from fresh produce such as peanut butter, smallgoods and cheese to handmade clothing, jewellery and natural skincare products. Though a bit manic, it’s not to be missed. Nibble some nuts or a crisp local apple while perusing the aisles, stopping for a yarn with stallholders who will sell you artichokes you can’t take back on the plane or maybe some tie-dyed yoga pants. Then head to Doris’s heavenly hot dog van for the best bratwurst this side of Bavaria. Saturday 8am-1pm, Montgomery Square; nelsonmarket.co.nz
With GPS or a decent map, it’s easy to rumble Nelson’s claim that this hill on the city fringe is the geographic centre of New Zealand. But don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story. Visitors searching for an iconic lookout need look no further than Botanical Hill, a two-hour walk taking in the riverside Maitai Walkway and starting at the visitor centre. By the time you’ve made it back to town you’ll have a good grasp of the region’s shape and size and happily turn a blind eye to the lie.

Cruising around the Land of the Long White Cloud is on the up and up. And no wonder – the ruggedly beautiful two-island nation is rich in weird and wonderful natural attractions, sophisticated city life, superb wines and spectacular scenery made famous by The Lord of the Rings movies. Most New Zealand cruises are round-trip voyages from Australia offered by a variety of lines during the October to April “Wave Season”. Princess Cruises gets you into Kiwi mood en route, with Maori folkloric performances, regional cuisine and cultural events on board its ships. P&O Cruises’ Pacific Pearl sails coastal cruises out of Auckland year-round that range from three to 10 nights. The best time to go is in the warmer months of December to March but bear in mind the weather can change dramatically in a single day so pack accordingly.

Auckland, known as the “city of sails”, is a great introduction to New Zealand’s mix of Maori and British colonial heritage and the country’s renowned food and wines. Culture vultures have three excellent museums to choose from (Maritime Museum, War Memorial Museum and Art Gallery), adventure-seekers will enjoy bird’s-eye views of the harbour during a bridge climb, and wine buffs will find plenty to sample in Waiheke Island’s boutique wineries. Discover more about the Maori way of life while your ship is docked at Tauranga; Princess Cruises offers tours to Tamaki Maori Village, where you’ll experience Maori singing and dancing and taste traditional food.

Alternatively, wait until you arrive at Dunedin and visit historic Speight’s brewery for a tour and tasting. Dunedin has a strong Scottish ancestry and as well as being a beautifully preserved Edwardian and Victorian city, it’s the gateway to the wild Otago Peninsula.

Cruising through the ancient Milford, Doubtful and Dusky Sounds is a highlight of any trip. Although Milford is accessible by road, seeing the Sound’s dramatic peaks, cliffs, rainforests and waterfalls from the sea is really the way to go. Fiordland is New Zealand’s largest national park and its waterways are home to fur seals, penguins and bottlenose dolphins. That there are also rainforests is a clue to the fact Fiordland is the wettest place in New Zealand. If the mountains are wreathed in mist and rain when you cruise by, just take it as a reason to return for another chance to experience the tranquil grandeur of the Sounds on a blindingly bright day.
The enchanting islands of New Caledonia and Fiji are the key destinations for cruises departing from Auckland. P&O Cruises’ Pacific Pearl sails four Pacific island itineraries, round-trip from Auckland, year-round: 10-night Melanesian Discovery (visiting Port Vila.

TREASURE ISLAND Bruny Island isn’t just a pretty summer spot – it’s a holiday the family will always remember WORDS GEORGIA RICKARD
I
f you’re looking for a story about your average summertime holiday spot, well, this isn’t for you. Sorry. Bruny Island might be affordable (tick) and family-friendly (tick), but your first clue that it’s different? Its Tassie location. Global travel powerhouse Lonely Planet named it one of the hottest 10 spots on earth to visit this year, and with good reason: the state is home to pristine wilderness, an incredible array of produce (hellooo, cheese), and beaches that could stop even the most spoilt of beach-going Aussies in their tracks. That’s right – beaches. Who knew? Tassie’s bright white sands are in fact so breathtaking that visitors tend to get on the plane home with their mouths still open, then proceed to name them in all sorts of Top 10 and Best Of lists around the world (just ask Vanity Fair, The Telegraph UK, Conde Nast Traveller or The New York Times). As for Bruny, well, the pristine stretches found here are particularly lovely. Not just because they’re fringed by turquoise waters so clear you can see your toes wriggling on the water’s sandy bottom. Nor because they’re free from litter, parking meters and other such afflictions, but because they’re naturally protected suntraps – warm verging on hot in the summertime, and surrounded by just enough eucalypts to remind you that you’re not, in fact, in the tropics, but instead right at home on a sparkling Australian shore.

Meeting Bruny Numbers show that most visitors only stay for the obligatory milk run; arriving on a day trip to buy some cheese, admire the trees, and snap some pics before leaving, farewelling bemused locals who wonder why they bothered making the trip in the first place. Snuggled into the contours of Tasmania’s south-east coast with just a slip of sea separating it from the mainland, at over 100 kilometres in length, there’s as much to see here as all the theme parks of the Gold Coast combined – and the ice cream is far better, too. Bruny is actually two islands: North Bruny and South Bruny. Connected by a thin green line of land called The Neck, which binds the two together in an endless tug-o-war, its isles are fringed by sparkling trees, glittering water and enough natural wonders to render little people deaf to the call of the iPad.
The sea change Getting here is simple enough. A 30-minute drive south of Hobart will bring you to Bruny’s car ferry, a 20-minute ride that zips you straight onto Bruny’s roads. But the exercise of crossing water, combined with Bruny’s rolling, forested hills, create the effect that you’re much further away than you are. The sense of remoteness is magnified by the winding, country roads, some of which are sealed – but mostly aren’t. They wind through some of the prettiest countryside views this side of north England, and though it all looks very 1970s beachside rural Australia, a drive along just about any of them will bring you to civilisation – just look out for the ramshackle signs, which point out the general stores/cafés/ chocolate factories hiding among the trees.

Oyster store, Get Shucked, hauls its so-freshthey’re-dripping creamy treats from the water’s edge less than 100 metres away, and is so popular it even has a drive-through window, catering mostly for the Friday evening Hobart crowd – though if you can wrangle an hour away from the little ones it’s worth sitting indoors and enjoying yours with some warm, chewy sourdough and a crisp pinot gris.

But the real standout here is the wildlife. Stop at The Neck just before sunset and you’ll see fairy penguins coming home to nest for the night, while at South Bruny National Park you’ll find a very rare – and very beautiful – colony of white Bennett’s wallabies. Embark on a (quiet) bushwalk and you’ll be treated to the sight of at least one echidna waddling through the grass and, of course, everyone who comes here needs to take the cruise.

Sailing with seals Run by local eco-tourism legend Rob Pennicott, the Bruny Island cruise offers better sightseeing than a Jurassic Park flick – with more drama to boot. Jump on board the little yellow boat and zoom 30 kilometres down Bruny’s craggy coastline, past 100-million-year-old seacliffs so tall they’ll make you dizzy, to a wild and woolly wilderness where dolphins, whales, hawks, eagles, albatross, gannet, shearwater and petrel all make regular appearances atop the foamy emerald waves. This should be plenty to delight even the pickiest of miniature Attenboroughs, but there’s also the cruise finale to seal the deal: an enormous colony of wild seals, who reside at the very bottom of the island. These fat, adorable creatures are so relaxed and happy to be alive and sunbaking that they’ll barely bat
an eyelid at your involuntary cries of delight, even when the boat gets so close that you can count their whiskers individually. Of course, the funny thing about holidays is that the grandest of plans are often made, only to be discarded once you realise how busy you are doing nothing at all. Barefoot children, plied with a once-daily scoop of Tassie’s famous Valhalla ice cream (buy it at Dennes Point kiosk), tend to band together with other holidaying little people to roam
the sand in packs, leaving happy parents to get lost in their books. If that isn’t enough to relax you, consider this: you can rent a holiday shack right next to the beach and get change from $200. The classic Aussie getaway, at classic Aussie prices? Now that’s a worthwhile holiday. Travel Info Jetstar has great low fares to Hobart from Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

A tale of two laneways Adelaide’s once-sleepy CBD is filling fast with cool new bars and restaurants WORDS KRYSIA BONKOWSKI
“ W E LC O M E TO A D E L A I D E L A D I E S and gentlemen,” the pilot announces as the plane tilts over Gulf St Vincent. “You’ll need to turn your watches back 30 minutes, and your lives back 30 years.” He gets a wry laugh from everyone on board, including the locals. It’s a sentiment Adelaideans are used to – the place has long had a reputation as exciting as its alias, “the city of churches”. But that is threatening to change. In the past couple of years, two pint-sized lanes in the city have been quietly filling with oh-so-cool bars and bustling eateries fronted by young locals who didn’t follow their peers interstate. Peel and Leigh Streets – blink-and-you’llmiss-them offshoots of the sometimes gritty Hindley Street – are now the go-to spot for a night out. Things got interesting back in 2013, when the state government reviewed the liquor licensing laws that had largely limited Adelaide’s scene to big nightclubs and refurbished pubs. A more cost-effective and flexible licence was created for
venues with a capacity of less than 120, designed to foster small bars, restaurants, galleries and live music spots. As soon as the laws were passed, small bars started springing up in alleyways and rooftops throughout the city. In the past two years, more than 50 venues have been approved. The West End has become the epicentre, most visibly on Peel and Leigh streets. The Ginos Group, which owns Leigh Street and a substantial building on Peel, has been instrumental in the metamorphosis, renting to small businesses with big ideas. Behind the heritage sandstone and bluestone facades of the two streets, the new venues are cheek by jowl. You can’t swing the proverbial cat here without hitting a wine bar or cocktail den. “The new laws are giving smaller operators without big budgets a chance to open up and show their wares,” explains Ben McLeod, co-founder of restaurant Peel Street. Many of the owners are also the chief operators, meaning they are

SOUTH AUSTRALIA deeply invested in giving every person who walks through their doors the best possible service. Whenever a bar scene starts to flourish in one of Australia’s smaller capitals, the inevitable comparisons to Melbourne and Sydney ensue. But the transformation of Peel and Leigh is not just an exercise in mimicry – there’s a distinctly local feel. All of Adelaide is behind the revival, with the tangible enthusiasm of a close-knit community. The renowned wine regions and gourmet produce on Adelaide’s doorstep have provided a strong foodie foundation. Ollie Margan, bar manager and part owner of upstairs/ downstairs venues Maybe Mae and Bread and Bone Wood Grill (both found at
Fielke, co-founder of acclaimed bar Clever Little Tailor, credits the supportive relationships between venues for the area’s success. “We’re all happily pushing each other … all pushing up quality,” he says. Here, owners working seven-day weeks have their knock-off drinks at competitors’ venues. When leases come up, they encourage friends to take them. “Every new, wellrun bar that opens on the strip just solidifies its place as a great spot to come for a fun night out” says Rob Dinnen, co-owner of wine bar Udaberri. Adelaide’s small-town mentality is working in its favour. As Ben from Peel Street says, “Everyone knows everyone, but you know, that’s Adelaide anyway.”

Three’s a charm Move over Bali - the nearby Gili Islands are the go-to for travellers in the know W O R D S PA U L E W A R T
For decades the island of Bali has been on the lips of every traveller dreaming of a tropical getaway. But years of popularity mean parts of the island have swapped simple charm for luxury resorts, crowded nightclubs and shopping strips. Many travellers are now turning their attention to a nearby trio of islands in the Indonesian archipelago to get their sun and sand fix. A few hours by fast boat from mainland Bali, just off the coast of neighbouring Lombok, the Gili Islands tick the “tropical getaway” boxes: jaw-dropping white-sand beaches, abundant coconut palm trees, dazzling turquoise waters and

There are no cars, no motorbikes and best of all, there’s an island to suit all tastes amazing marine life. Gili means “small island” and while gilis can be found all around Lombok, when people talk about the “Gili Islands”, they’re referring to Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno. Veritable specks, these islands are tiny. There are no cars, no motorbikes
and best of all, there’s an island to suit all tastes. Young and looking to party? Gili Trawangan is for you. Want somewhere romantic and secluded? Look no further than Gili Meno. How about somewhere in between? Gili Air should do nicely. Not that you need to confine your visit to just one of the Gilis - you can island-hop with ease. Allow a good two days for each island, or make a proper vacation of it with an extended Bali add-on (taking into account travel time to and from the Gilis). But whichever way you plan to visit, be sure to add the islands to your travel hit-list sooner rather than later.

Stay: Hotel Vila Ombak (hotelombak.com) remains one of the best resorts on the island. If your budget is bigger – and your comfort zone narrower – then this is your place. Overlooking Mount Rinjani, the property features a large outdoor pool and a beachfront restaurant and is an easy five-minute walk from the jetty.

Trawangan
The largest and most heavily developed of the three Gilis, Gili Trawangan (or “Gili T” for short) has become a stopover destination for the international party set. Here, backpackers and dedicated pleasureseekers populate the island’s multitude of bars and resorts. The scene is divided into two main areas: the east side of the island (which is where the boat drops you off) is the most developed (think: jam-packed beachfront of bars, restaurants and accommodation), while the northern tip of the island offers a more subdued vibe, with laid-back beach shacks and bars. Gili T’s newfound status as a party island has promoted many comparisons with Ibiza in its early years and this burgeoning reputation is seeing the island shake off its former backpacker guise, attracting a more hip and cashed-up crowd from Asia and Europe.

Kick off your walking degustation with a portion of delectable nasi campur (mixed rice dish with meat, vegetables, egg and shrimp) from the stand near the entrance.
Do: Party! While there’s an array of nightlife options (there’s even a fullmoon party on Gili T), Sama-Sama Reggae Bar is a safe bet for a good time. Positioned near the makeshift harbour on the main street, the bar offers great live music, often from well-known Indonesian bands.

DESERT ISLAND DREAMS Life on laid-back Gili Meno moves at a sedate pace
Stay: Aptly translated as “slowslow”, the Adeng-Adeng Bungalows (adeng-adeng.com) is a family-run resort that embodies the peace and tranquility for which the island is famed. Set back a couple of hundred yards from the beach in landscaped tropical gardens, private bungalows are separated by winding footpaths through banana trees and pristine fish ponds.
Gili
Eat: The commercialisation of Gili Meno is still in its infancy, so the dining options compared to the other Gilis are minimal, particularly when it comes to eateries outside of the beach shack variety. Aside from gorgeous rooms, the Mahamaya boutique hotel’s (mahamaya.co) restaurant is the fanciest restaurant on the island, and like all good things, it’s priced accordingly.
Meno
Arguably the quietest and most peaceful of the three islands, Gili Meno is for those who want a truly relaxing holiday – a leisurely snorkelling trip and an afternoon in a beach hammock is as taxing as it gets. The vibe is laid-back – horizontal even – which makes sense when one of the only activities available is to laze in a beach hammock doing, well, nothing. Snoozing aside, there are ample spots for swimming, snorkelling and diving around the island, with the best beaches positioned along the north coast and the southern end of the west coast.

Gili Air
Significantly less developed than Gili Trawangan, but more so than Gili Meno, Gili Air is a happy mix of the two. There isn’t a party vibe as such, but in high season you can expect to stumble upon the occasional makeshift rave on the beach. Most of the dining and nightlife options are on the east coast and positioned directly on the beach, so if you’re not a night owl, then opt for accommodation elsewhere. You can walk the island on foot in around 90 minutes, but for novelty value (or for transporting you and your luggage from the boat drop off point) take a ride in a cidomo. These pony or horse carts are one of the only means of transport on the island. Come evening, bliss out at the island’s resident yoga and meditation space, H20 Yoga and Meditation Center (h2oyogaandmeditation. com), for their daily candlelit Tibetan singing bowl class. Bliss.
walk from the main harbour and a few steps away from the best snorkelling beach on the island, The Sunrise Resort (sunrisegiliair.com) is a great option for visitors. Locally designed villas either overlook the fine, white coral sanded beach or an idyllic coconut grove. While the ocean is on their doorstep, the hotel also has a great natural stone pool if you’re craving a freshwater swim.
Eat: Follow the delicious aroma of locally caught fresh seafood being grilled over charcoal and you’ll find the Chill Out Bar and Restaurant (chilloutbargiliair.com). Raised dining platforms are situated directly on the sand with picture-perfect views across to neighbouring Lombok and Mount Rinjani.
Do: Head straight to the coral reef on the eastern side of the island for amazing diving. The marine life ranges from the ubiquitous (although, still impressive) giant green turtle sightings to moray eels, parrot fish and the more elusive black and white tip reef sharks and manta rays. Gili Air Divers (giliairdivers. com) offer year-round scuba at every level, from entry through to advanced.

There’s a variety of fast boat options with many tickets including transfer to or from your hotel. Check seat availability and book online ahead of travel. Boats between the islands usually operate twice daily and the journey takes around 15 minutes between each. gilibookings.com
WHEN TO GO
The Gili Islands have a tropical climate so you can expect enjoyable weather year round. The high season runs from June to August. During the month-long Muslim Ramadan celebrations, the bars turn down the music at around midnight. If you plan to scuba dive, the best months are from May to September, but it’s possible to dive throughout the year.

A GLIMPSE
behind the walls
Once the centre of Spain’s empire in Asia, Manila’s old walled district offers a fascinating insight into the city’s people and history WORDS NARINA EXELBY
“ I B E T Y O U D I D N ’ T T H I N K your day would turn out like this,” Georgie the Porgie declared, settling onto a piano stool and pushing back his cap. “Hell no,” I mutter, as three old nuns shuffle between me, the piano and a bold mural of Mary cradling baby Jesus: I hadn’t expected my day to be anything like this. One! Two! Three! Four! Georgie dramatically bounces his foot off the piano pedals, swings his elbows wide and belts out “Let it be, let it be! Let it be, let it beee…” This Beatles rendition – by a quirky tour guide in a Catholic church in the middle of Asia – was altogether quite unexpected. Considering my calesa (a horse-drawn carriage) was waiting outside the church this day was, to quote Alice in Wonderland, becoming curiouser and curiouser. I shouldn’t have been surprised. Manila, it turns out, is utterly captivating and thoroughly bizarre. Who would have thought that someone called Merry Christmas PHOTOGRAPHY NARINA EXELBY

would have served delicious Spanish churros with my morning coffee. Or that Casio would have driven me across town in a converted Jeep named “Immaculate Conception”. Or that what is now the Philippines’ oldest golf course was once a defensive moat, filled in and grassed because it attracted too many mosquitoes. (The crocodiles, Georgie says, were sold off to become shoes and handbags. Perhaps he was joking.) The Philippines’ capital city is often written off as too congested, too overpopulated, too polluted and altogether too large. It’s true: Manila is all this. The city itself is just 35 square kilometres, but 16 cities have now sprawled into metro Manila, a daunting 638 square kilometre urban jumble, and it’s impossible to tell where one city begins and the other ends. Unless you’re in Intramuros – where Manila’s soul seeps in. Translated from Spanish, intramuros means “within the walls” and that’s exactly what Jetstar.com

PHILIPPINES
BOLD AND QUIRKY Spanish grandeur meets bustling, brazen city in Intramuros
this historic district is: a walled city. Built by the Spanish in the early 1600s to protect the very centre of their empire in Asia, the walls contain an enchanting district of colonial buildings and Catholic churches; a striking cathedral, remnants of cobbled streets and a sturdy fort. Parts of this once-grand area have crumbled into decay: the roots of fig trees strangle brick walls and nests of power lines criss-cross over the higgledy-piggledy homes of some of Manila’s poorest residents. But there’s also a sense of resilience here. Within its walls, Intramuros holds a tragic history of betrayal, murder and sheer pride. To begin to understand Intramuros you need to know this: The Philippines is a wonderful confusion of cultures collided by time and politics. Guide and performance artist Carlos Celdran – who has a penchant for controversy and a scathing take on his country’s history – puts it this way: “Think of Hawaii and Mexico,” Carlos explains as he

That’s the Philippines.” Then he hands me a pair of ears: “Can we take a quick
selfie?” he says. For centuries Filippinos have been tossed between the whims of foreign rulers, picking up the quirks that have shaped their hybrid culture. After a long and intricate history with Indian, Sumatran, Chinese, Japanese and Malay traders, kings and sultans, the islands were colonised by the Spanish, who ruled for 333 years. Once they’d lost interest, in 1898 the Americans bought the islands for US$20 million (the same amount it cost them to build Manhatten’s New York Public Library in that same year, Carlos points out). After Japanese occupation during World War II, and after America bombed Intramuros into a pile of rubble (yes, it was “their” city at the time), they handed the islands back to the people, and the Philippines gained its independence in 1946. For decades dust gathered around the ruins of Intramuros, until the early 1980s when then-First Lady Imelda Marcos (she of the thousands of shoes) set up the Intramuros PHOTOGRAPHY NARINA EXELBY

SIX WAYS TO EXPLORE INTRAMUROS 1. Take a walking tour of Intramuros with controversial performance artist Carlos Celdran. His Walk This Way tours (celdrantours.blogspot.com) are sublime, fascinating, hilarious and will add incredible depth to your understanding of the city.
Administration to restore what was once the heart and soul of Manila. All roads in Intramuros lead to one place: past the stately Baroquestyle San Augustin church (the location for many wedding photographs) to the manicured gardens of Fort Santiago. Catch a ride in one of the district’s creaky cycle rickshaws and your “driver” will likely wax lyrical about “our national hero”, who spent his last night in the fort before being executed. Here, there is now a shrine and museum dedicated to the life of Jose Rizal, a gentle artist, writer and ophthalmologist whose writings inspired an anti-colonial revolution during Spanish rule. It’s a tragic, tangled history within the walls of Intramuros – and yet life here is quirky and bright. On the streets you can buy ice-cream and halo-halo, a wild Filippino dessert of shaved ice, evaporated milk, jelly, syrup, fruit and even sometimes beans and cheese. Red and yellow bunting – the colours of the Spanish
flag – adorn some of the churches. Residents in the poorer parts joke that they live in the USA: the United Squatter Area. Rickety rickshaws blast songs from Celine Dion and murals showing national pride cling boldly onto remnants of walls. What at first glance is an interesting mix of forgotten grandeur and urban decay is actually a vivacious city where almost anything is possible… including being serenaded in a Catholic church by a man called Georgie the Porgie. Alive and kicking! VivaManila is an organisation with a mission to revive Manila through art and culture. Their website (vivamanila.org) offers listings of what’s hot and happening in the city.

2. Opposite the San Augustin church on Real Street, Ristorante delle Mitre is, according to its menu, “a place for bishops to dine, but as bishops too must feed their flock, so is everyone invited to partake of the Lord’s bounty”. The cooking here is overseen by nuns. 3. Indulge in a sunset cocktail from the rooftop of The Bayleaf (thebayleaf.com.ph), where you’ll enjoy views across Intramuros’s walls towards the city. 4. A fun, slow way to see Intramuros is by cycle rickshaw - a good way to get from A to B, and also to take a tour of the district. 5. You can take a calesa (horsedrawn carriage) from outside Fort Santiago. A driver and a guide (that’s how we found Georgie the Porgie) will show you around Intramuros and take you to most of the major sites (including Fort Santiago, Manila Cathedral, Plaza de Roma, San Augustin Church, Casa Manila). 6. Shop at The Manila Collectible Co (chamber 8, Fort Santiago), for hand-spun textiles from across the Philippines, as well as fairtrade coffee, cigars and cacao.

1+1=3 Matching Wine with Food
A
big part of drinking wine when you are out and about is the food you eat with it. The language we use to describe food can help us discover what wines best match with your dish. Using words you associate with food that focus on texture or balance of flavours, and that describe the marriage of tastes such as supple, rich, savoury, fresh and crisp, will help you describe and select the best wine to accompany your meal. Look for food and wine that share similar texture and weight. Chefs will write a menu the same way a good wine list is written, in increasing order of weight, body and concentration of flavour. Oysters are nearly always at the top of a menu. Look at the opening pages of a wine list, Champagne is listed first followed by Riesling. Both wines have refreshing flavours and high acidity to match the oyster’s delicacy and salty flavour. At the end of the savoury courses you will find red proteins such as beef, and at the back of your wine list you will find the powerful tannin rich wines
94-103_PROMO_Food Keystone_Dec.indd 90and wine.indd 94
such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz whose firm tannins are soaked up by the richness and texture of the beef. Some of my favourite food matching wines to try at this time of year include light bodied wines like a young Semillon from the Hunter Valley and crisp Vermentino from northern Italy. Juicy light bodied reds like Gamay from Beaujolais in France and Pinot Noir from Tasmania are a winner, especially with Christmas leftovers. Summer tip; dunk all your reds, especially the full bodied ones, in ice for 5 minutes before drinking. At the Chophouse restaurants in Sydney and Perth’s CBDs, where it’s all about signature steak dishes, the fantastic pasture fed rib on the bone goes perfectly with a Heathcote (Victoria) or Margaret River (Western Australia) Shiraz.

The suppliers. We brought together some of the best fresh produce from Australia and New Zealand for our photo shoot to inspire you this festive season. Enjoy... Green-lipped mussels hauled from the Marlborough Sounds. Sun-ripened mangoes plucked from Australia’s Top End. When it comes to fresh produce, Australians and New Zealanders have it in spades. Beautiful ingredients sourced from the fields and shores of these two countries are the perfect foundation for festive feasting this summer. Nature’s bounty Pristine oceans, clean air and wide-open spaces, Australia and New Zealand’s natural beauty goes hand-in-hand with the quality of their produce. You name it, somewhere in these countries it grows and flourishes. In Far North Queensland, Daintree Estates turns its crop of cocoa fruits into a velvety chocolate. In the South Island of New Zealand, J. Friend and Co works with local beekeepers to source artisan Manuka honey. There is also a wealth of native ingredients waiting to be harnessed. The world’s best chefs go crazy for Australian finger limes, nicknamed “lime caviar”. The delicate lemon myrtle is a wonderful addition to both savoury and sweet dishes. Local nurseries are often a good place to start – if you can’t buy it, why not grow it?
JETSTAR THANKS
Market fresh For the true paddock-to-plate experience, get up bright and early on the weekend and seek out the nearest farmers market. Or better yet, visit the farm itself. Farm gate produce is as fresh as it gets, and at some you can even pick it yourself. In early summer, find boxes of plump cherries for a steal at orchards in Tasmania’s scenic Derwent Valley or the Adelaide Hills. For seafood plucked straight from the ocean, set your alarm early. The daily seafood auction kicks off at the Auckland Fish Market at 6am, just after that day’s catch lands on the docks. Look local, think seasonal The locavore way of thinking – sourcing as much food as possible locally – is gaining traction. Not only does buying local mean you support local industry, it also cuts down on the road miles your food travels.

Go organic Organic and sustainable farming is better for the earth and your tastebuds. It lets you enjoy the things you love, while ensuring the environmental cost isn’t too high. Why not buy fresh eggs from Papanui open range eggs? Here, happy hens roam protected by Maremma dogs. Or the world-renowned Western Australian rock lobster, Spencer Gulf king prawns, and Tasmanian salmon, all fished from sustainable fisheries. Going organic doesn’t always come with a high price tag. Sourcing food fresh and buying from local greengrocers, butchers or suppliers is a step in the right direction. So head to your nearest farmers, fresh food or seafood market and feast on Australia and New Zealand’s stunning produce at your next celebration.

White meats
Maggie Beer
Nick Haddow
Hayley Purbrick
Bruny Island cheesemaker
Environment Manager at Tahbilk Winery
One of Australia’s favourite cooks, Maggie Beer’s career in food spans farming, food production, writing and television presenting Never-fail: I absolutely love beginning a meal with a glass of bubbles. With antipasto, my first choice would be a sparkling Tasmanian pinot chardonnay. Dream: Methode Champenoise will always make any antipasto dish that little bit better. Krug’s Clos d’Ambonnay is produced from a single grape variety, in a single year and from a single vineyard. I believe there were only 3000 bottles ever produced. Certainly not an everyday wine! Avoid? I can’t think of a wine that couldn’t be matched with some sort of antipasto, even anchovies and olives can find a match with a grenache. Top tips? I really like being able to talk to the winemaker, and living in the Barossa lets me do that quite often. Get as close to the source as possible is my advice. What will be on your table this Christmas? It will probably be Champagne as it’s so accessible. My non-alcoholic Sparkling Ruby Cabernet and Sparkling Chardonnay let those not wanting to drink alcohol still enjoy the celebration of good food and company.
Seafood Marco Edwardes Head chef at the acclaimed Te Whau Vineyard & Restaurant and instructor at the Auckland Seafood Kitchen Never-fail: I prefer to match seafood with white varietals. Pinot gris with steamed clams and mussels, chardonnay with crayfish, sauvignon blanc with spanner or paddle crab. Riesling and gewürztraminer can handle spicier foods such as Thai, Chinese or Indian. And Champagne or Methode Traditionelle with freshly shucked local oysters. Wildcard: Paella and pinot noir. I really enjoy the rich flavours of saffron, smoked paprika, garlic, herbs and fresh New Zealand seafood matched with a lighter pinot noir. Dream: Seared Coromandel scallops with 2013 Te Whau Chardonnay. Just divine! Avoid? I wouldn’t match seafood with syrah/shiraz, cabernet sauvignon or Bordeaux-style blends. What will be on your table this Christmas? For Christmas lunch I’ll open a crisp German riesling and a refreshing rose from Waiheke Island.
Never-fail: Fresh goats’ cheese and sparkling wine.
Never-fail: Clare Valley riesling with crisp chicken schnitzel
Wildcard: Aged cooked curd cheese, such as Gruyere or Parmesan, with a dry sherry.
Wildcard: Southern Tasmanian or Mornington Peninsula pinot noir with roast chicken.
Avoid: The enemies of cheese are tannins, astringency and high alcohol. So in Australia, some of our iconic shiraz regions produce wines that are very, very difficult to match with cheese. Top tips? Either contrast or match. For example, fresh goats’ cheese and Champagne are both quite acidic, lemony, fresh flavours. For red wine, I’d recommended something a bit softer, either with a bit of bottle age, from a cooler climate, or a softer varietal. With white wine, make sure it’s not too high in acid unless it’s for a similar style cheese. If you’re contrasting then you need, for example, a strong, salty blue cheese with something sweet such as a port or fortified. What will be on your table this Christmas? Beer – we’re just in the process of starting a little microbrewery so we’ll be drinking lots. Otherwise there is always vintage Tasmanian sparkling, and Tasmanian Pinot Noir.
Fish Rick Stein Rick Stein OBE is an English chef and restaurateur best known for a love of fresh seafood. Rick and his wife Sarah run “Rick Stein at Bannisters” at Mollymook in New South Wales Never-fail: My rule of thumb is that the more delicate the fish, the lighter and drier the wine and conversely the sweeter and rounder, the more full-bodied. With simply grilled fish I love a sauvignon, semillon, riesling or tart chardonnay. For richer fish like blue-eye Trevalla or Hapuka I prefer a full-bodied white. I like a very light, chilled pinot noir with grilled fish. Wildcard: For fish dishes with spice I like gewürztraminer and, paradoxically, sharp sauvignon, which can deal with the heat. Dream: Last week in Bordeaux I had a bowl of mussels with garlic and Bayonne ham, plus chips, and a really full-bodied red Graves – a match made in heaven. Top tips? I tend to go for wines of a similar price in the same category. But above all, my son Charlie is a wine buyer and when we’re out to dinner and I go to choose, he says ‘I don’t think that’s a good idea Dad’. What will be on your table this Christmas? No question, Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier from Canberra. I’ll be at Bannisters so it’s almost local and goes really well with roast turkey.
WO R D S k rys i a b o n kows k i • I L LU ST R AT I O N I STO C K P H OTO . C O M
94-103_PROMO_Food and wine.indd 101
Dream: Tahbilk 1927 Vines Marsanne with sashimi (or any fresh seafood). Avoid? The one rule I use with white meats is: darker meat, darker wine. While a shiraz might not be suitable for most chicken dishes, it goes well with turkey. I’m a big believer that food and wine go hand in hand, always contrast or match flavours, weights and textures. Think of the food and the wine as one. Top tips? Much like books, find a friend who has the same taste and get your hot tips from them! And if that fails, don’t let price fool you – try something new and you never know what might surprise you. What will be on your table this Christmas? I can never go past a good sparkling shiraz with honey-glazed turkey. In one word, delicious.
Red meats Jean-Charles Mahé Jean-Charles, Director of Beverage at Perth’s innovative Print Hall, was ranked third at this years’ Sommeliers Australia Awards Never-fail: Aged cabernet sauvignon with barbecued beef (no sauce or jus), a light cool climate syrah or grenache/ syrah/merlot blend with lamb racks and a Bordeaux blend with venison. Wildcard: Oloroso sherry or orange wine with barbecued beef. Dream: 1990 Domaine Jamet Côte Rôtie with wood-grilled sirloin (medium-rare of course), cedar ash and sweetbread. Top tips? Price is important, especially in Australia. There is also a strong notion of terroir in Australia and New Zealand. Cabernet sauvignon and syrah don’t grow in the same way so if a region makes the best cabernets then avoid the syrah (there are exceptions). Then (consider) production method – organic or not, natural, traditional. At the end of the day it is all a matter of personal taste, but I always look at new wines in order to surprise myself. What will be on your table this Christmas? Champagne from a small French growerproducer such as Cedric Bouchard Roses de Jeanne. From Australia, chardonnay from Margaret River and riesling from Great Southern. From New Zealand, gewürztraminer and pinot noir. Then a bottle or two of Côte Rôtie. Jetstar.com

BAKE& SNAP
Self-taught and talented in the sweet department, home bakers are gaining international acclaim with a little help from Instagram, writes Sofia Levin O N N E W Y E A R ’ S E V E almost three years ago, Katherine Sabbath succumbed to peer pressure and downloaded Instagram. Her smartphone remains unchanged – aside from the 205,000 Instagram followers religiously checking her account. Katherine is one of a new breed of bakers characterised by their online presences, creativity and lack of formal training. They’ve been dubbed “instabakers” and Katherine left her teaching job in Sydney at the start of the year to tackle it full-time. Her internet-famous party cakes – layers high, dripping with aqua ganache and crowned with upside-down ice cream cones – were originally an end-ofsemester reward for her students. “It really caught me off guard,” she says of her popularity. “I didn’t realise people enjoyed my aesthetic and approach as much as I enjoyed creating, because I was never trained. I just used what was around me.” Take the height of her cakes. Now
Colourful cooking
“Instagram has really helped me with my exposure.” all the rage in the baking world, Katherine accidentally popularised tall cakes when she had to stack two 18-centimetre pans to feed a larger group. The neon drip, on the other hand, was inspired by the embossed slime-like titles of the Goosebumps book series and a childhood collection of Silly Putty. Katherine’s creations are both nostalgic and a reflection of her personality – colourful, eccentric and refined. “Instagram has really helped me with my exposure. I don’t need to rely on other channels, which is really good because I can connect to people on a level where I have autonomy,” she says. “I never want to lose my sense of self and why I started in the first place.”

Instafame was also a happy accident for 21-year old Melburnian Alisha Henderson, better known online as @sweetbakes_. “I would die without Instagram,” she says laughing. But since Alisha launched Sweet Bakes in the middle of a journalism degree a few years back, orders have come almost exclusively through her account. Monitored closely by 107,000 followers, she draws inspiration from fashion and industrial design, mixing edible watercolours and painting everything from Noah’s Ark to Frida Kahlo on her creations. And when projects include baking a 1.5-metre monster for an 850-head wedding, why wouldn’t you have your cake and ‘gram it too?

The perfect pair M A R K E T D AY S Newcastle’s markets offer everything from organic goodies to multicultural treats
STRIKING GOLD Clifford Luu with one of his creations. Right: Caroline Khoo and colourful Nectar and Stone treats
Iven launched her baking business at the start of last year following the popularity of her biscuits among friends and school markets. Creating the Instagram account was her husband’s idea but at the time he couldn’t have predicted that he’d soon quit his job as a wedding photographer to manage Iven Oven’s photography and marketing.
Sugar rush Over in Sydney, Clifford Luu is weighing up whether to renew his contract as a project manager or instabake full-time. Since he started documenting his baking on @cakesbycliff in March, the demand for his edible sculptures with monochromatic drips and metallic sails have commandeered his spare time. With an architecture degree under his belt, Clifford incorporates design elements into his baking process, including providing some clients with sketches. He cites other instabakers as his inspiration, such as Nikki Lee from Unbirthday Bakery, also in Sydney.

Corporate caking In two years, Unbirthday has accumulated more than 128,000 followers, but unlike other instabakers she uses her background in business management to her advantage. “There are a lot of instabakers who still have full-time jobs, but when you start taking it into the business realm there’s a transition ... You’ve got to hire staff and you have to train them on styling and on the principles that you’re trying to portray through your work,” says Nikki. Named after the Alice in Wonderland unbirthday tea party, the bakery has been approached by big brands as diverse as tech companies to undertake collaborations. But Nikki is steadfast in her values, refusing to partner with companies that don’t embody the brand or share images unrelated to baking.
When it comes to matching sweets with wine, no one will raise an eyebrow if you pair your pudding with a port, but if a sugar overload doesn’t appeal, leave stickies for the cheese platter and start thinking creatively. Bubbles and baked goods Dessert king Pierre Roelofs (pierreroelofs.com), who has been hosting dessert evenings every Thursday at Adriano Zumbo’s Melbourne high tea salon Fancy Nance, says that while there’s nothing wrong with serving a dessert wine with sweets, he prefers to look for contrast. “I like dry sparkling wines. The sparkle helps refresh the palate and there’s less chance of overwhelming the dessert.” With light, fruit desserts, he suggests adding body to the experience with a rich wine. With creamy chocolate desserts, Pierre likes a Tasmanian coldclimate sparkling wine for contrast. If you’re really adventurous, try a reverse match, creating a dessert from scratch with flavours to complement your favourite wine.

has a similar approach, returning free products to companies that don’t match her business philosophy. Unlike Unbirthday, Caroline posts products she enjoys as an insight into her personality. Her feed is a pastel collage of flowers and homewares alongside sweet treats, with sponsors noticing an increase in demand for featured goodies. But she is unwavering when it comes to treating all clients equally. Recently she had inquiries from Tiffany & Co and Christian Dior, but turned them down due to previous commitments. “As big as those names are and as amazing as those opportunities are, I just don’t cancel on my clients. I just don’t,” she says. Even those with fewer followers are approached by big brands. Arnott’s Tim Tams reached out to Karla Goodwin from Bluebells Cakery, in Auckland, to bake and post pictures of cakes inspired by their new flavours. For Karla, Instagram has been fundamental in raising brand awareness. “We have a very visual product and the amount of email orders and comments that come through when we post is amazing,” she says.

“...as amazing as those opportunities are, I just don’t cancel on my clients...” Sweet endings Although it would seem that the snaps are to thank for instabaking success, it’s not that simple. Instagram’s 400-plus million monthly users upload 80 million photos each day. These instabakers stand out because they provide fans on the scrolling end of the phone a behind-the-scenes look at their creative styles and personalities. Although Instagram has been fundamental, it’s not everything. “If we lost our account I’d be pretty devastated, but I’d be willing to build it again from scratch,” says Nikki. “But take cake out of the equation for a moment and just look at being creative. There is a process that you engage yourself in and if you can do that in a really authentic way, that is where satisfaction comes from. Making pretty cakes is just the end result of what we do.”
“If you post things that you enjoy and that are a reflection of your personality, you’ll connect with people who like you, and they’re the most important.”

A flying start Indigenous communities are providing the best start for their children
BURSTING WITH FUN Warlpiri kids love learning at StarKids-supported playgroups
IN REMOTE WARLPIRI COMMUNITIES in Central Australia, small groups of community members are creating big changes for young Indigenous children. With support from Jetstar and generous Australians, World Vision assists four Early Childhood Reference Groups. These provide parents and families with a forum to discuss and drive early childhood care and development in their community. Early learning is critical to children’s futures, and the groups give communities a strong voice in how programs for their children are run. “Experience tells us clearly that the only way to create real and lasting change is if it’s designed and led by the community, not imposed from outside,” explains World Vision Program Manager Annette Fuller. The reference groups provide guidance and advice on World Visionsupported activities, and community playgroups are a thriving example. WORDS

orrison wor
124-125_In the know_Doing Good.indd 125
The playgroups help kids build confidence and learn essential skills such as numbers, the alphabet and colours, to prepare them for school. Reference groups also help by creating educational resources in both Warlpiri and English. World Vision also supports many community members to take on professional training so they can run early childhood activities themselves. One group recently went on a study trip to visit Indigenous-run early childhood services in Adelaide. “World Vision and Warlpiri communities thank Jetstar for allowing us to continue to work together,” says Annette. “Through Jetstar’s support, World Vision Australia can continue to walk and work together with Warlpiri communities to ensure their dreams for their children to be strong, happy and healthy are made a reality.”

BEHIND THE CAMERAS On set with WILSN and the team from NIDA
N I D A A N D T R I P L E J have joined forces to give Australian talent their turn in the spotlight. Every year since 2009, teams of talented National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) directing, design and production students are challenged to write, shoot and edit a music video, all with a budget of just $200. Each team is matched with an artist scooped from the Triple J Unearthed pool in a national competition. Shannon Busch, the voice behind WILSN, shot to prominence after supporting legendary singer Charles Bradley in April this year. Her second single Walking for Days was one of the winning tracks for the NIDA Unearthed competition. While filming at NIDA’s Sydney studios, Shannon was impressed by the WORDS krysia bonkowski • PHOTOS PHIL ERBACHER

complicated filmmaking process. “I’ve never been on a set like that before so I’d never been able to see how much work goes into it behind the scenes,” she says. “Turns out it’s a lot!” “It’s pretty amazing what they managed to do in so little time,” Shannon says of the futuristic clip the team created. Overseeing the production was director Priscilla Jackman, a NIDA Master of Fine Arts student. With the tight budget and timeline, the whole process was “a baptism by fire in many ways”, Priscilla admits. At the end of the day however, the pressure made the outcome more satisfying. “The twoday shoot when we were all creating together in the one place felt really special,” she says. “And I feel it comes across in the video clip.”
The NIDA and Triple J Unearthed project gives budding filmographers hands-on experience with directing, budgeting and planning. Emerging artists gain insight into a crucial element of the mainstream music industry, and are left with a polished video to boot. Both learn invaluable lessons about working professionally with creatives in other disciplines. “Deep collaboration is at the heart of both theatre and film,” explains Priscilla. “I’ve walked away from this project with some of the most important relationships and lessons learned during my time at NIDA.” See all the winning clips, including WILSN’s Walking for Days, on Jetstar’s Inflight Entertainment.

And to celebrate all that’s great about the season, Jetstar has partnered with fellow sun-seekers Sunglass Hut to offer a capsule range of sunglasses curated by international model Chanel Iman. At the launch of the partnership in Melbourne, Chanel emerged from a Jetstar A320 aircraft emblazoned with a glamorous image of herself and fellow global brand ambassador, Georgia May Jagger. The aircraft can be seen flying holidaymakers around the Jetstar network this summer. “My face is flying to all these exotic destinations I’ve never been to,” Chanel laughs. A diehard beach lover, Chanel’s ideal summer destinations involve lots of sun and sand. “When I know I’m going somewhere exotic, my favourite thing to do is pick out my different bathing suits for each day” she says. “It just gives you a certain energy of how you are going to feel when you get there.” Modelling has taken Chanel around the world.

Time to think pink A simple pink stripe is helping fight breast cancer
Helping kids get back in motion
T H R O U G H O U T O C T O B E R , Q A N TA S Group pilots, including Jetstar staff, swapped their usual gold epaulettes for pink stripes, to show their support during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The FlyPink initiative was the brainchild of QantasLink Captain Susan McHaffie, who was inspired by the National Breast Cancer Foundation-branded pink QantasLink aircraft to find a way to raise funds and awareness for breast cancer. A total of 3,300 Qantas Group pilots had the opportunity to make a $5 donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation to wear the pink epaulettes with pride and, along with a range of other initiatives – including collection tins in crew rooms and Qantas airports and Pink Ribbon Breakfasts – the project raised around $70,000 for life-changing breast cancer research projects in Australia. “Every day in 2015, 42 women in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer, and it is still the biggest cause of cancer-related death in women globally,” says National Breast Cancer

HIGH
Foundation Chair, Elaine Henry. “We believe that research is the key to eradicating the disease, and credit research with the many advances that have been made in breast cancer care and treatment over the past few decades.” The FlyPink project will be an annual fundraiser for Qantas Group pilots. “I hope by next year I’ll walk past a pilot I don’t know in an international airport wearing pink epaulettes in support of breast cancer research,” says Captain Susan.
Stroke rehabilitation can be an intense experience, especially when you’re just a kid. But Kids in Motion staff make it a full-blown circus. The hybrid program of gymnastics, brain gym and ball sports gives affected kids the tools to jump through the unique hoops they face every day. Over the past 18 years, Kids in Motion has assisted children like Steph, whose gross motor skills were impacted by a stroke. Each week Steph has private rehabilitation sessions to work on rebuilding these skills, and improve confidence and motivation. Children with autism and Cystic Fibrosis are also supported through these personalised programs. Each time you enjoy Kooks, you’re helping Kids in Motion get kids back on their feet.

NEW ROUTES
More Dash than cash Exploring regional New Zealand has never been more accessible than on one of Jetstar’s new Dash 8 Q300 aircraft
T H I S M O N T H J E T S TA R C O M M E N C E D its new regional routes to Nelson and Napier from Auckland with additional routes from Auckland to Palmerston North and New Plymouth, and Wellington to Nelson to follow on 1 February next year.
The new routes are making it easier than ever to explore New Zealand, whether you’re flying on business, taking a holiday or visiting family. We went behind the scenes to find out how the new aircraft and routes will be making an impact.
“There’s no plane I like flying in more than the Dash.” Jono Blowes Engineer and Manager Fleet Projects
Grant Kerr Head of New Zealand, Jetstar “These initial routes offer opportunities to grow the market and make a real difference to local economies and locals’ wallets, boosting passenger growth and saving people money when they fly.” 132
Captain Adrian Young Manager Flying Operations – Deputy Chief Pilot, Flying Operations, QantasLink “I’ve been flying Q300s for 10 years. They’re short takeoff and landing capable so they are more interesting to fly. As a pilot, that makes the experience more enjoyable.”
Bill Dalton Mayor of Napier “We’ve been trying to get competition into the Hawke’s Bay skies for years. It’s going to make Napier a much more affordable place to visit.”
Rachel Reese Mayor of Nelson City “These (flights) will have a significant economic impact, opening up new markets and connecting us more to other places around New Zealand and the world. More people will now be able to visit our beautiful city.”
Sachi Wade Cabin Crew Manager New Zealand “Shorter sectors are great for getting to know regular customers as you build a rapport with frequent flyers on these routes.”

WELLBEING
Your inflight safety and comfort Keeping safe and having an enjoyable Jetstar* flight Your safety comes first There are a few simple things you can do to make sure you have a safe flight: • Watch the pre-flight safety demonstration. Even if you’ve seen it before, it may differ depending on the aircraft you are on. A refresher will help you remember the instructions more easily in an emergency. • Keep your seatbelt fastened when you’re seated – it’s the best protection in case of unexpected turbulence. When the seatbelt sign is on, you’re required by law to have your seatbelt fastened. • Stow your carry-on luggage and larger electronic devices in the overhead locker or under the seat in front of you whenever the seatbelt sign is on. • Sleeping on the aircraft floor is not permitted. Smoking is not permitted on board Government regulations prohibit smoking on all flights operated by Australian-registered aircraft. There are smoke detectors in all toilets and penalties for regulation breaches. Intoxication and disorderly behaviour Boarding an aircraft when drunk is against the law. If you’ve had too much to drink before a flight you may jeopardise the safety of the aircraft, and we will refuse
to let you board the aircraft. You’re not permitted to consume your own alcohol on board. The only alcohol you may consume on board an aircraft is that provided by the cabin crew. Qantas Group security – keeping you safe The Qantas Group ensures that its passengers, staff and aircraft are safe and secure through an outcomefocused, risk-based approach to security management. Qantas security standards apply across the business including QantasLink and Jetstar. A dedicated Operations Centre monitors global security events 24 hours a day. The Qantas Group has a strict policy of denying boarding or offloading any passenger who makes inappropriate comments or behaves inappropriately in flight or on the ground. Jetstar will not accept any inappropriate comments as ‘jokes’. All matters deemed inappropriate will be referred to the relevant authorities for prosecution. Jetstar will also seek to recover from those involved all costs incurred as a result of security incidents. Your inflight health Some studies have found that lack of movement over time could contribute to blood clots forming in the legs (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT). If you feel you could be at risk from DVT or other health problems, see your doctor before you travel.
To reduce the risk of DVT, you should: • Avoid sitting with crossed legs • Drink plenty of water during the flight • Minimise alcohol and caffeine intake before and during your flight • Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes • During the flight, move your legs and feet for three to four minutes per hour while seated and move around the cabin occasionally. Additional measures such as well-fitted compression stockings or anti-clotting medication may be recommended for high-risk individuals. Pack safe for your next flight Next time you fly, remember these important safety guidelines for your baggage: • Make sure you pack your own luggage. • Common items such as batteries, aerosols and lighters become dangerous at altitude. Ensure you are aware of dangerous goods restrictions and don’t pack any of these items in either your carry-on or checked baggage. • There are restrictions on the liquids, aerosols and gels you carry on board (for international flights the limit is often containers of 100ml or less, packed in a transparent plastic bag for screening). Ensure you are aware of the requirements before you go to the airport. For further information, check jetstar.com
