f all the waves of immigration that have O shaped our most multicultural of cities, none has permeated Melbourne’s DNA quite

like the Italians. When you think about the things we love about our city: moody wood-panelled bars, gelati on a balmy night, excellent cafe lattes on just about every street corner, thin-crust pizzas, sitting at the bar at Pellegrini’s with a bowl of spag bol – so many of them we owe to the Italians. The first wave of Italians arrived here postwar, colonising Carlton and enthralling the locals with cheap and cheerful pasta joints and exotic delis. Seven decades later the Italians are still coming and still showing us a thing or two about living la dolce vita. One of this new crop is the delightful Silvia Colloca, aka Mrs Richard Roxburgh, who moved to Australia for love and is now charming us with her new food show on ABC TV and a new cookbook. Read her story inside and enjoy this week’s special edition celebrating our enduring love affair with all things Italian. ●

PETER WILMOTH meets the multi-talented silvia colloca

ilvia Colloca met her husband, Australian actor Richard Roxburgh, while making a film that probably doesn’t sit atop their respective acting CVs. The 2004 film was called Van Helsing. Roxburgh played Dracula and Silvia Helsing played one of his three brides. “Oh, hilarious,” she says. “The film was such a fun time for all of us. We worked together for six or seven months and we all got along so famously. “We were having the time of our lives and on top of that we fell in love. When we think of it as a career move we think, ‘Oh well, it’s OK, leave it or take it, doesn’t matter’ but without it we wouldn’t have this family. The director made an appearance in our wedding speech.” We’re in a Sydney cafe and Silvia, 40, is as vivacious and warm as she is in her new ABC television series Silvia’s Italian Table in which she cooks with, and shares stories with, three celebrities each week. She has an accent that is perhaps more Australian than you might expect (even though she’s been living here for eight years) and, with her striking Italian looks mixed with a healthy serve of Aussie self-effacement, Silvia has become Australian television’s newest food superstar. Right now she’s everywhere. Coinciding with the TV show is the release of her new cookbook La Dolce Vita, written to celebrate the Italian way of eating. “I am constantly asked by friends, ‘How can you eat Italian food and not be fat or unhealthy?’ There’s this misconception that Italian food is not good for you … and I say, ‘Guys, you’ve got the wrong picture, I’ve got to help you out here’.” I ask Silvia to explain Australians’ love of the idea of Italy. “I think it’s easy to romanticise because Italy is geographically blessed,” she says. “You venture around those hills and villages, and you’re confronted with incredible history … People are fascinated by a church that’s been there [hundreds] of years, frescoes that have been kept beautiful for time immemorial, and the vibrant artistic culture that produced such masterpieces.” Growing up in Milan, food was a central part of family life. Silvia’s parents were determined to raise their children with a discerning palate. “Everything happens around the kitchen,” Silvia says of her upbringing. “I was always sitting down with mum watching her cook, or with nonna. My brother became a chef. So obviously there’s something that runs in the family. “We’ve all been exposed to a really unassuming and authentic love of food where the love is giving nourishment and it’s nothing to do with the chef’s ego, which is something I struggle with when I go into restaurants and I see a lot of effort put into the food. It feels to me that sometimes that’s taken

PICTURE \ STEVEN SIEWERT It was tough leaving her career in Italy in opera, musical theatre and TV. “When I moved back here permanently in 2009 … I was a bit worried about my own fulfilment,” Silvia says. “I had a good career in Europe. Here I had to start from zero. It wasn’t very easy. I had to get an agent, I had to get people to meet me, to know I was here, because they didn’t really know my work. “What you’ve done internationally doesn’t quite translate until you’ve done Packed to the Rafters, which I did, because my agent said, ‘I think you need to do things like that because you’ll connect with people’.” Silvia has been described as Australia’s answer to Nigella Lawson. She laughs at the temptation people have to make comparisons. “Oh they love doing that, don’t they? It’s great, obviously she’s fabulous. People need to put you in a box. With me they’re already very confused because there’s the cooking thing and the acting and the singing and they’re like, ‘What are you?’ And I say, ‘Sorry that’s your problem, I’m all three and I’m a mother’.

“People are very confused because there's the cooking thing & the acting & the singing … I say, I'm all three & I'm a mother" start a food blog. “My Mum said, ‘Do a food blog, everybody’s got blogs’. Her blog, Silvia’s Cucina, took off in a way she couldn’t have anticipated. “I started having these conversations with people I’d never met who I was so in tune with. We were so like-minded. They started asking for recipes or suggesting recipes. I realised there was a conversation I could have about food with people who were interested in simple Italian home cooking. “We know restaurant Italian food … but there’s also Italian home-cooking. It’s a lot healthier and a lot more varied and it’s exciting for that reason. And very frugal as well. If you’re on a budget it’s a great cuisine.” She pitched a TV show. “I thought, ‘There is no way in the world that this will go through, it’s too good’ … It was an instant ‘yes’. “Australians responded so well to the show because it’s a country of immigrants, whether they’re Italian or Lebanese or wherever. No matter what part of the world they come from they can relate to my story as an immigrant.” » La Dolce Vita by Silvia Colloca (Penguin Random House) $49.99 » Silvia’s Italian Table, ABC1, Thursdays at 8pm.

“I suppose the parallel with Nigella is that we’re both good writers and we both do TV shows and we have dark hair. “Having said that, she’s going a lot more Italian in the cooking. I really enjoy her work. Look, I think a lot of us now have a career in food because of her. She started making it accessible to people.” Silvia says she and Richard take turns minding the children, Raffy, 9 and Miro, six. “Sometimes there are clashes,” she says. “A couple of years ago I was doing a play in Melbourne for a few months. Raffy had just started kindy and Miro was still a baby, 18 months, so we decided Raffy should stay in Sydney [with Richard] so he could go to school and I took the baby to Melbourne because he had to be with his mother. “They’d come and visit. It was a bit strange to have the family like that. But, as much as I missed Raffy and Richard, it was a nice opportunity for me and Miro to have that time alone – he really appreciated that I think. And for Raffy and Richard to have adventures, big boy time.”

ilvia says she juggles the singing and the cooking and the kids “because I have a whole lot of energy and I just have to make it work”. She says she's a better person when she can do it all. A couple of years ago she took a break from theatre work. "I’ve got an itch for it now. I kind of have to. If I don’t I get a bit anxious. I think I’m a better friend, a better wife, a better mother and a better daughter if I fulfil all my creative outlets.” She has recently returned from a seven-week stint in an opera in Brisbane. “So the last two months have been about

so far that it’s just to please the chef [so he/ she can hear] ‘Oh that looks amazing’. It’s not appealing to my other senses apart from vision – yes, it looks great, but that’s pretty much it. “I’m not a chef and everybody knows that … I never went to chef school, I’m just Italian and I have a story to tell, so my recipes often are a way to offer a deeper exploration about what it is to be Italian and eat like an Italian.” In Milan Silvia studied teaching, music and acting and she is grateful for the opportunities the city afforded her. “It was only since meeting my Australian husband that going back to Milan and taking trips I was appreciating the landscape. Yeah – Lake Como. It’s nice. I see what the fuss is about.” She lived in Milan until she was 28 and then moved with Richard to London for a few years. Their son Raphael was born in Australia because Richard was directing Romulus My Father (starring Eric Bana) in country Victoria that year. They moved to Australia permanently in 2009.

opera and performing. Now I’m putting my writer’s hat back on and writing another book. I have deadlines and the show’s coming out and the [new] book’s coming out. It all comes from the same creative spark.” I ask whether it is any easier that she and Richard are both in the creative industries. “I see a lot of my friends and colleagues who are married to people in completely different areas and businesses and they struggle to find that kind of support. “If you have to disappear for three days you just have to. They say that filming will end at 7.30 and it ends at 10.30 at night. That’s fine. Or you have to kiss someone. That’s fine. The fact we’re in the same boat allows us to receive that support, and that understanding. “It’s all up in the air. We never plan because everything changes. We understand each other. It’s a job that can give you so much but can take away so much as well, because there are no sick days, there’s no time off when you’re doing it. You get a lot of time off when you’re unemployed. “You have to keep these things in mind when you’re a family – are we going to make it this year? And how much do we want to work so we can have a good life without sacrificing too much time with the kids?” Silvia’s life has changed so much in three years. “I couldn’t anticipate that things would escalate in the way they did,” she says. “It’s been joyous. It’s not a career I thought I’d ever have. There are better cooks and there are better writers, to be honest. For some reason people seem to be interested in my story. “It’s been my lottery ticket to be able to tell my story in a way that had engaged people in such a profound way.” ● pwilmoth@theweeklyreview.com.au OCTOBER 19, 2016 \ THE WEEKLY REVIEW 9

What’s the buzz? Street food is so hot right now and cucina Italiano will always be di moda, so combining the two is sure to make a splash. Following a string of sold-out cooking workshops in Melbourne and at the Anna Tasca Lanza Cooking School in Sicily, Paola’s first book, Italian Street Food, hits bookshops this month. In the beginning … Paola describes her upbringing, which involved lots of time in mamma’s kitchen, as the best kind of apprenticeship. While her migrant parents instilled in her a passion for food and cooking, they also insisted she follow an academic path, so she studied dentistry. The big break … After withdrawing from MasterChef Australia in 2012 (when her father was admitted into palliative care), Paola realised what she wanted to do. Inspired by Venetian cooking teacher Enrica Rocca, she started a food blog called

Italy on my Mind, featuring recipes, photos and memories of family meals. It quickly gained traction and was shortlisted for Best Food Blog by ITALY magazine within a year. Invitations to teach and write followed. Where to now? Paola divides her time between her home in Fitzroy North and her favourite parts of Italy, such as Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the north-east. “This region and its food is less well-known than other parts – I would like to bring this food to the world and become an ambassador”. The best part about success? Paola’s father died just before she embarked on fulfilling her food dream but he is always on her mind. “I think about how proud he would be, having fled Italy after the war, starting again in a new country, to see his daughter bringing his culture to the world. He’d probably also wonder why he bothered spending all that money putting me through dentistry!” ● ALICE ZASLAVSKY aliceinframes@theweeklyreview.com.au

t takes 24 hours to fly from here to Naples – the same amount of time it takes to prove the dough for a classic pizza Napoletana. Some may put this down to coincidence but, considering Melbourne’s recent winning streak in the global pizza stakes, you could be forgiven for wondering if there’s something in our water or if it’s something less tangible – a deep desire to prove ourselves, perhaps. Johnny Di Francesco of 400 Gradi stamped Melbourne’s status as a global pizza force when his margherita took out top honours at the World Pizza Championships (Campionato Mondiale Della Pizza) in Parma, Italy in 2014. Then, early this year, Silvio Serpa of Preston’s Pizzaly was named Australia’s best pizza maker at the same championships. And just last month, Andrea Cozzolino from Zero 95 in Doncaster East took out the coveted Caputo Cup in the birthplace of pizza, Naples, after pitting his margherita against hundreds of the world’s best. There’s no doubt that when it comes to pizza, we punch well above our weight – perhaps not so surprising in a state where Italian is the second most commonly spoken language and where the bonds to Italian food and culture run deep. By the time Johnny Di Francesco started making margheritas at 400 Gradi in Brunswick East in 2008, Melbourne was in the throes of “Il Ritorno” – The Return – to the pizzas of the ’60s and ’70s, which were seemingly delivered fresh off the boat by Italian emigres. Back then, they had been “all Italian and pretty good” recalls Rita Erlich, food writer and former editor of The Age Good Food Guide. “The heavy gloopy stuff came later on”, she says. It was only with the rise of fast food and home deliveries, that our pizza expectations mutated into the kind of cartoonish over-sized crackers you’d see

MELBOURNE’S PIZZA MAKERS ARE TAKING ON THE WORLD, WRITES ALICE ZASLAVSKY in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – American-style, big as the moon, and awash with packet cheese and every topping you could imagine. It seemed like we were doomed to suffer the Supreme injustice forever, “And then the wheel was rediscovered,” says Rita. Ladro, Gertrude Street’s first “serious” restaurant, became the first pizza place to garner a hat in the Good Food Guide, which named it Best New Restaurant in the 2005 edition. “It certainly raised a few eyebrows, but they took pizza to a whole new level,” says John Lethlean, the guide’s editor at the time. “I can still remember how good it was. They didn’t worry about making pizza round. It was all wonky shapes and wood-fired flavour”. The plaudits proved controversial but diners paid no heed to the critics. Soon a new breed of high quality, authentic pizza joints such as Pizza Meine Liebe, Mr Wolf and I Carusi started sprouting all over town, offering simpler toppings, classic flavour combinations and sides of salad. They trained us to expect pizza to be thin-based, slightly chewy and cooked through.

The master: Silvio Serpa of Pizzaly. New hero: Andrea Cozzolino from Zero 95 won the coveted Caputo Cup in Naples for his top margherita.

What we came to know as “proper pizza” turned out to be but one interpretation. As with all Italian food, differences of opinion abound – and each region is fiercely loyal to their own interpretation. Comparing Neapolitan to Roman is like chalk to cheese. Unlike classic Roman-style pizzas that are flat and firm, the Neapolitan pizza is soft and elastic so you have to fold it over itself to eat, or slice it with a knife and fork. For Johnny Di Francesco, this posed a problem. “Customers found the Neapolitan style challenging at first,” he says. “They’d send it back because they didn’t think it was cooked.” Thus began Johnny’s mission to retrain the habits of punters and pizzaiolos, and encourage us to come around to the softer, soupier Pizza Napoletana.

sourdough starter from his nonna Rachele and the dough has taken on a life of its own, growing and changing with time and dedication. Across town in Preston, Silvio Serpa is happily getting ready for another night of service at Pizzaly. “He’s 74, he should be at home wearing ugg boots with his feet up,” says his wife and business partner, Anna. “He came out of retirement to make pizza because he just loves it.” It’s no surprise these pizzaiolos are so passionate about what they do. Perhaps with so much distance between our shores and the pebbled beaches of Naples, absence has made the heart grow fonder. Away from the ease of wandering down the street for a bag of Caputo flour, our pizzaiolos are pushing themselves harder, turning the wheels of revolution here and abroad. ● aliceinframes@theweeklyreview.com.au

role as Australasian Principal of the Verace Pizza Napoletana association (basically Italian for, “too legit to quit”) he has coached some of Melbourne’s best pizza makers, many of whom I visit while trawling around town on my search for the city’s finest. Although they still get the odd pizza sent back to the kitchen, the pizzaiolo community are spearheading an international pizza revolution. For Melbourne’s newest Neapolitan champion, Andrea Cozzolino, it all comes down to passion. “For me, cooking pizza is not a job. It is a style of life. You do not stand 10, 12 hours a day in front of a pizza oven unless you love it.” But it’s not just his love for the craft that gave him the win over 700 entrants from around the world at this year’s Caputo Cup. Ahead of the contest, the 25-year-old travelled the breadth of Naples, looking for the best fior di latte mozzarella and freshest San Marzano tomatoes (here’s a tip – if your pizza place uses S. Marzano tomatoes, they probably know what they’re doing). “The ingredients for a margherita are simple so you cannot hide behind them but you can also use this to advantage,” says Andrea. “In Australia, we use the same ingredients, we cook it in the traditional style and for some people they think it is too soft, not cooked. But this way you can taste all of the ingredients and if you cook it any further you lose the flavour.” Micheluccio “Mick” Carrafa of Pizzaiolo Micheluccio in Camberwell says making the perfect pizza is not just about sourcing the right ingredients – it’s knowing what to do with them. “You can’t blitz the tomatoes, you have to squeeze them by hand,” he says. “The mozzarella, the dough, it’s all done by hand.” He says authentic Neapolitan pizza relies on a sourdough base. “You have to feed it and look after it – that’s what gives pizza Napoletana its flavour and texture,” he says. He inherited his now 35-year-old

Walking into this unassuming strip-mall pizza place, all exposed bricks and tomato-tin-laden shelves, you could be excused for assuming it’s going to be more of the same old suburban hits – “I’ll have a Hawaiian with mushrooms”. But one look at the pizzas and you know this is serious. The margherita does not disappoint – with generous bubbles of fior di latte from local maestro Giorgio at That’s Amore Cheese, on an equally bubbly base. There are “special” pizzas too, with additions such as walnuts and balsamic reflecting the young pizzaiolo’s creative flair. ● ● 904 Doncaster Road, Doncaster East

Another family-friendly favourite that’s also family-owned, this place is made for big groups, with a larger, slightly more private area at the back to fit the entire familia. You can also pre-order metre-long pizzas with the same squishy, wood-fired base. Their walls and pizza oven are adorned with frescoes of Naples, encapsulating their pride for the birthplace of the pizza we know today. I’m a fan of quattro anything, and here it’s the quattro salumi – champagne ham, sopressa salami, pancetta, and pork and fennel sausage – sublime. ●

All exposed bricks, wood and concrete, this Thornbury treasure is built for after-school outings. When I visit, the ratio is about two-to-one kid-to-adult, and the level of juvenile joviality reverberates off the walls. If you have a noisy brood to feed, they’ll fit right in. Their pizza is made to exacting Verace Pizza Napoletana standards and has a satisfying level of smokiness that’s not easy to achieve from only 90 seconds in the wood-fired oven. Plan ahead for the Nutella calzone. ●

Complete with DJ decks playing old vinyl and an uber-cool beer and wine list, this is old school meets new school in a very Melbourne sort of way, which is only to be expected from David Mackintosh, the man who helped shape laneway hits such as MoVida, Rosa’s Canteen and Lee Ho Fook. ●

Referring to the quality-assuring Denominazione di Origine Controllata, this place prides itself on the best ingredients from Australia and the mother country. The offering goes beyond pizza and pasta into salumi and a cheese-tastic mozzarella degustation, served with such delicacies as white Sardinian anchovies and shaved fennel. The space is bright and fresh, perfect for warmer weather. The calzone (folded pizza) is my pick here. It’s moreish – moist, stuffed full of ricotta, ham, and spinach and, most importantly, flavour! ●

Founded by Melbourne’s self-styled Mr Pizza, Johnny Di Francesco, the original location at Brunswick East is all black, dark wood grain and concrete floors – with buzzwords on the wall (including the big G) and copper wood ovens breathing fire that’s visible from the front door. There’s plenty of al fresco seating here to take advantage of the corner location, so you can sit out the front and shout expressively at passers-by in your best Italian, folded pizza slice in hand. A Melbourne icon to bring visiting guests to for some pizza e bira. ●

ANDREA COZZOLINO’S AWARD-WINNING MARGHERITA

This is the one that blew me away with the most flavoursome, impeccably balanced margherita. After having eaten seven other margheritas on the same day, I knew what I was looking for. As we sat beneath the glow of the shiny disco ball, ’90s techno pumping through the speakers, my mouth was treated to tangy San Marzano tomato passata, herbaceous torn basil, stretchy mozzarella di bufala and lashings of olive oil – every element singing along to the doof-doof (of my heart). ●

BLACKST.COM.AU OCTOBER 19, 2016 \ THE WEEKLY REVIEW 15

Ask the wine guy the party season, is prosecco a Q For suitable substitute for champagne? It makes a great substitute – and A one that’s easier on the budget, too. Prosecco’s a fairly neutral-flavoured grape that’s at its floral best when fresh. To capture the purity of its pear, citrus and blossom flavours, most prosecco is made like a still wine before being gassed up in a similar way to a Sodastream. It’s a much simpler – and cheaper – process than champagne, which is reflected in the price. But beware, there are cheap Italian examples that are sweet and one-dimensional (you can add peach puree to these for a delicious Bellini). ● GOT A QUESTION EMAIL \

Dal Zotto Pucino Col Fondo 2014 (King Valley) $27; 12%

Range Life Prosecco NV (King Valley) $22; 12%

This can be hard to track down – I’ve had it at Dal Zotto’s cellar door and at Marion in Fitzroy – but it’s worth the search. Cloudy and unfined, col fondo is the equivalent to Coopers beer in the prosecco world. It’s full of fresh green apples, biscuit dough, spice and complexity. This is creamy and energetic, with minerality, lemon and a delightful grip. ●

Here’s a prosecco with a little more complexity than most. Pear, peach and lemon aromas have a moreish zesty note. Its gentle mousse leads to ripe stonefruit and citrus flavours that are given life by a line of energetic, refreshing mineral-laced acidity. ● Enjoy with \ Sushi

Enjoy with \ Freshly-shucked oysters

BARGAIN BUY

Maschio Prosecco Superiore 2015 (Valdobbiadene, Italy) $15; 11%

Enoteca AD Vino Bianco Frizzante NV (Veneto, Italy) $12; 11%

Imported direct by Dan Murphy’s, this ticks all the prosecco boxes – and at a good price. Floral apples, pears and green melon aromas are given a lively kick by zesty lemon, while its luscious, creamy mousse – a real highlight – gives way to a neat balance of rich orchard fruits and zippy grapefruit. ●

With its low alcohol and breezy character this is just perfect for sunny afternoons with friends. There’s the lightest tingle of bubbles, before sweet apple, pear and pithy grapefruit flavours wash over the tongue. Here’s a wine that’s not trying to hard – it’s just cool. ●

o matter the language, countries and cities are often referred to in the feminine; the mother country, your mother tongue. It makes sense then, that Bar Idda – “Her Bar” – should be such a homage to Sicily and all that she has given Italian cuisine. Upstairs, surrounded by glowing light and wood panelling, our lace tablecloth is swiftly hidden under a plethora of plates. Sicilian food was “designed to share” before it was cool. Dictated by a bountiful coastline and rocky terrain, the cuisine is seafood-heavy and made for warmer weather. Deep-fried school prawns are sprinkled with pistachio (Sicily’s nut of choice), chargrilled tuna steak “u fucularu” is served with a grape-laden broth, accenting the fish’s meatiness. We eat the ricotta gnochetti in silence (it’s that good); creamy, al dente, with shaved sprouts, broccoli and chilli. Luckily it comes with a spoon, because I’m about ready to lick the bowl. Sicily isn’t huge on meat, so there are plenty of veggies on the menu and it’s all so fresh and light you’ll want one of everything – from the eggplanty capunata to the lemony finocchio (fennel). Leave some space, take the cannolo. ● aliceinframes@theweeklyreview.com.au

EATING \ BURRATA may look like an innocent mozzarella ball, but cut into it and you’ll be rewarded with oozy stracciatella – a mixture of cheesy strips and fresh cream. Traditionally eaten within 24 hours, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, I add rocket and crostini for a substantial share plate. ●

an album, Bonnie is instead making her theatrical debut alongside Mark Dickinson in the revival of 1970s musical Godspell Godspell. “I’m always trying to do different things,” Bonnie says. “I thought I’d give it a shot. It’s a pretty wild experience learning the script. I’ve done a bit of acting before, but doing it for a stage musical is a whole other thing.” Drawing on the New Testament, Godspell was a big hit in Melbourne 40 years ago in a production starring Colleen Hewett (who also appears in the new version). Bonnie’s approach to preparing for her first stage role has been thoroughly 21st-century, however. “All I could do at the start was look up as much as I could on YouTube. It’s cool looking at how the songs have changed and evolved.” She isn’t worried that the Bible connection might put some people off. “It’s rock, you know. It’s going to be fun. It’s not so innocent and it’s not throwing religion in your face. The show is cheeky, innocent and playful.” ● mbartlett@theweeklyreview.com.au

The reality It’s Thursday at The Craft & Co – the Smith Street micro-brewery, distillery, coffee roaster, restaurant and workshop space – and a group of nine of us are trickling in for a class. Head chef Dom Marzano will teach us how to make fettucine, tortellini and ricotta gnocchi, but first we have to learn how to make pasta dough. Dom weighs out flour and eggs, then passes chunks of the dough around so we can feel when it’s ready to knead. He shows us how to roll out dough using a pasta machine and then use the same machine to cut the pasta into various widths. On to the ricotta gnocchi, using cheese made on-site, and then the tortellini, which we learn to fill and fold like professionals (well, almost).

The course left me feeling confident I could host a fresh pasta dinner party with aplomb, but I hear the cheesemaking class calling me. ●

RETAIL THERAPY MEDITERR ANEAN WHOLESALERS \ BRUNSWICK

SALES PITCH A sprawling continental food store selling pantry staples and specialties.

Who’s behind the counter? Decades ago, Andrew Madafferi’s father Giuseppe opened a little deli on Sydney Road and went on to open a bulk store nearby. Mediterranean Wholesalers moved to its current location in 1977 and the store has continued to expand since.

Our pick

What’s in store? Whether you’re looking for porcini mushrooms, organic parmigiano reggiano, or pasta in every shape and size, it’s here at Mediterranean Wholesalers. There’s also pizza and pasta flour, Italian tinned tomatoes, chickpeas, a deli selling imported Italian cheeses and cured meats, a whole section dedicated to sweet somethings, and a coffee and pastry bar (cannoli anyone?). You can buy imported wine and spirits (including the very summery limoncello), terracotta cookware, pots, pans and percolators and a range of Italian washing powder and detergents. That might sound a little pedestrian, but inhale the scent and be transported to the narrow streets of Naples, where washing hangs suspended above the streets. Who’s buying? Andrew says the store’s shoppers reflect

the demographic of changing Brunswick. Once inhabited largely by Italian and Greek migrant families, who preferred to buy in bulk from the sprawling shop, the suburb is now home to a much younger demographic. “We’re starting to see a big shift. Our customers today are not buying as much or in bulk. They’re coming out more often, they’re buying more niche groceries,” he says. ● VIRGINIA MILLEN

The rearmost seating for passengers six and seven is comfortable and generous enough for adults and there’s even room behind for luggage, although getting to it is not exactly dignified. This is a city SUV with low-profile tyres and hard suspension. It’s quick away from the lights and has enough power to dive into holes in the traffic. At the same time the steering is light and supple and the view of the road is commanding. I love the huge centre screen, as big as an iPad and clearly based on one. It has three separate menu screens (toggle between them by swiping) and they control almost everything in the car, from the engine start/stop to the seat heaters – which are among the best in the business.

love Volvo’s lane-keeping technology. Say you have your head down trying to find a radio station and the car starts wandering across the road. As you drift towards the white line the lane-keeper tugs gently on the wheel to keep you within your own lane, while also reminding you that a radio program is not worth panel damage. You can have fun letting the car skip along the line by itself, and should it start following an errant white line overriding it is as easy as steering where you want to go. I’m a big fan of the XC90 and the R-Design Polestar is the sportiest number with low-profile tyres and a unique grille. The ride is sharp but it handles like a hot hatch and feels light and agile.

LEARNING IN RESIDENCE AT WESLEY COLLEGE

BOARDING RETURNS TO WESLEY At Wesley, we recognise that young people are intellectual, emotional, physical, social, cultural and spiritual human beings. That’s why our new Learning in Residence program is carefully designed to enhance development across each of these dimensions. State of the art boarding facilities are available for senior students (Years 10 - 12) at our Glen Waverley campus. Enrolments are now open for full-time and weekly boarding options.

a contemporary model of boarding builds on Wesley’s philosophy & principles, writes Liz mClachlan facilities. The dining complex includes four learning and recreation spaces and will provide a hub for the senior years’ students after-school and weekend curriculum. Three staff houses and an administration and laundry building complete the Learning in Residence centre. Wesley College principal Dr Helen Drennen says the school developed a new and contemporary model for student boarding in years 10, 11 and 12 after much investigation and research into successful boarding schools around the world. The new model also builds on Wesley’s philosophy and principles in operation at its Clunes outdoor education centre in Victoria and the Yiramalay Wesley Studio School in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. “The design translates the importance of cultural and social engagement in the learning process for a modern world and supports the full integration of our residential and day students,” Helen says. Learning in Residence director Damon Emtage says the residential program is designed to be inclusive, integrated and holistic. “The new facilities and curriculum, aside from the residences themselves, are for all senior students. Every part of the program is integrated within the senior school so there is a seamless transition of support for all students – there are no divisions between day and residential students and every member of staff is a point of contact for every student.” Damon says the Learning in Residence program recognises that learning is a continuous process that doesn’t stop with

esley College has welcomed the first 35 students to its new $17-million senior years’ residential learning centre, integrated within the senior school of its Glen Waverley campus. The centre’s opening marks the reintroduction of boarding to Wesley College in Melbourne and follows its successes in residential learning in regional Victoria and Western Australia. An official opening by Victorian Governor Linda Dessau is planned for November 14. The aptly named Learning in Residence centre is light years beyond what most parents would traditionally associate with school boarding, with no large institutional dormitory blocks in sight. Instead a collection of eight stylish contemporary architect-designed houses with extensive decks is artfully arranged around a landscaped central garden courtyard. Designed by acclaimed Melbourne design practice Cox Architecture, the overall effect has far more in common with Grand Designs than St Trinian’s. At the heart of each house there’s a large light-filled shared space designed to make students feel at home with oak floorboards, a natural stone-tiled fireplace, table and banquette seating for reading and lounging. Each house has eight twin-share student bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and mentor living quarters. Residential students will eat their meals at long refectory tables in a new 240-seat communal dining hall shared with other senior year students and they will have access to the campus’ music, sport and drama

the end of the school day at 3.30pm. The Learning in Residence curriculum focuses on student development with academic, employment, extension and health and well-being programs. Students will have the choice of sessions including subject masterclasses, extension and remediation tutoring, vocational certification and yoga and strengthening classes. Wesley College plans to enrol a balance of international and Australian students, including students from metropolitan Melbourne, rural and regional Australia and indigenous students from Yiramalay. Wesley College’s brief to Cox Architecture emphasised the need for all students to feel secure and at home. Project architect Brett Seakins says the design team researched the concept and meaning of home in different cultures, particularly south-east Asian and indigenous Australian. “It was critical to achieve a balance between privacy and observation. Maintaining open lines of observation from the dwellings through to the central landscape was just as important as providing a bedroom and study nook that the students could feel was their own territory. “The level of connection builds gradually from student bedrooms with their private nooks to living areas and shared spaces such as the terraced fire-pit and recreation rooms within the adjacent dining hall,” Brett says. To minimise disruption to students and the school, the houses were built offsite, two at a time, by specialist prefabrication builder Prebuilt. The houses, broken down in modules, took a day to put together followed by two to three weeks of finishing work. The exterior is finished in engineered timber and charcoal metal cladding that wraps over the roof and down the walls. ● lmclachlan@theweeklyreview.com.au OCTOBER 19, 2016 \ THE WEEKLY REVIEW 29

he little cul de sac named Edward Street has three men named Con – who orchestrate a delicious, Greek-flavoured street party every Christmas – and one mysterious architect who slips behind the street’s heritage facades and transforms the houses. When the vendor bought this bewitchingly pretty 1910s weatherboard house eight years ago, he embraced the neighbourhood traditions. He and his family cavorted at the party. Then they hired the architect. “Our house was falling down, and the backyard was a small jungle,” the vendor says. “The architect had designed four houses in this street, so we asked him to design this, and my best friend built it from scratch. The only things left standing were the two front rooms.” It looks charmingly late-Edwardian, with its fretwork-trimmed porch and steep gable. However, this single-storey house is essentially new. From the rear it’s strikingly modernist and has full-length windows and a double-pitched roof split in the middle. It still has a shotgun hall – you can stand at the front door and fire straight into the backyard – but everything about the fresh floor plan meets the needs of a modern family who value space, storage and a beautiful garden. There are four double bedrooms, two living areas and a large dining room opening to a dine-out deck and landscaped lawn. With spotted gum floorboards, hydronic heating and mesh and sunscreen blinds, it has a restrained elegance with a nice medical benefit – these features minimise dust and allow the owner’s asthmatic children to breathe easily. The property opens with a brick path to a decked porch. Two front bedrooms are cosy in mushroom-beige carpet with sash windows. The main has a six-door wardrobe plus a room of open shelves through which one enters the en suite, which has a shower, stone cabinet and skylight. Bedroom two has a built-in desk, cupboards and bookshelves. The family bathroom has a tub, shower and cream stone cabinet against white-tiled walls. Two more bedrooms have contemporary sash windows and three-door wardrobes, and one has french doors to a lightwell courtyard. Should the juvenile residents wish to entertain their friends in peace, there’s a carpeted retreat behind a bifold door. The rear open-plan area is bright, airy and welcoming with full-length sash and fixed windows to the garden. Both dining and living areas have skillion ceilings, while the dining area has north-facing clerestories. The kitchen looks good in cream stone with matt white laminate cabinets, a scarlet tile splashback and a stainless-steel benchtop with Bosch cooktop and two-door oven. A cavity slider leads to the walk-in pantry, which flows into the laundry and out to a courtyard. Fresh-air fiends will admire the rear garden, whose elliptical lawn faces north-east and is irrigated. Girding the lawn is a retaining wall of Castlemaine sandstone, behind which gardenias, magnolias and a trio of silver birches thrive. There’s also a timber shed. The vendor says he’ll miss the friendly neighbourhood. “It only seems to be getting better here,” he says. ● ALISON BARCLAY property@theweeklyreview.com.au

This Victorian house harbours a startling personality. The tiny north-facing balcony behind the pitched roof is invisible from the street. Likewise the brilliant red second storey that rises above the east-facing garden. “The facade is quite unassuming,’’ the co-owner of the former shopfront says. “But you walk in and it’s like a story unfolding.” Though updated in 2009, the house has all the humour of an earlier revamp. The two ground-floor bedrooms have green-mullioned windows on to a lightwell courtyard with a fountain. The grey-tiled bathroom has a mosaic shower. The side hall opens into the kitchen, vivid in matt black and white gloss cabinets with stainless-steel benchtops, integrated Miele and Liebherr appliances and walk-in pantry. In the atrium living and dining area, a jasmine climbs to the curved ceiling. Timber stairs lead to an office on the internal balcony, followed by the main bedroom, en suite, walk-in wardrobe and balcony. The rear single garage has a permit for a second storey. ● ALISON BARCLAY

Smart technology and contemporary decor have helped turn this 1940s house into a modern space. The dwelling – the front building of two on a subdivided block – incorporates keyless entry, touch-sensitive light switches and a digital projector mounted over the back door for a cinematic touch. A slatted timber front fence provides privacy in the large lawn and an adjacent paved area. The freshly renovated house has three bedrooms with blackbutt floors and built-in wardrobes. A stylish bathroom is lined with large, cool-grey porcelain wall and floor tiles and designer bathroom fittings. The kitchen, living and meals area has a modern kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, ample cupboard space and a Caesarstone benchtop. Adjacent is a laundry nook. The focus of the house is the rear outdoor area, which feels roomy and relaxed. The indoor-outdoor room, accessed through bifold doors from the kitchen, has a semi-covered deck with skylights, a recessed biofuel fire and tropical plantings. ● JULIETTE ELFICK

FITZROY \ 164 NICHOLSON STREET This elegantly renovated Italianate terrace house is in an unbeatable location, within walking distance of the CBD, Carlton Gardens, Lygon and Brunswick streets and Melbourne University. A wide hall and high, ornate ceilings contribute to a feeling of grandeur and spaciousness. Natural light warms and brightens the house, especially in a conservatory that doubles as laundry and lightwell. The kitchen has stone benches, stainless-steel appliances and a slot window. Through rear glass doors, an enclosed deck leads to a bluestone laneway. The living/meals area has timber bifold doors that enable the zones to be separated. When open, they show off the generous dimensions. Marble fireplaces, polished boards and plantation shutters in the living areas add to the overall feeling of luxury. The main staircase leads to a landing where the stairs divide, creating two wings. The front wing has a living room and a bedroom. At the rear, there’s a second bedroom, a study/guest room and bathroom. The upstairs living room, which could easily become another bedroom, is spacious and relaxed and has contemporary details such as a reinterpreted chandelier. ● JULIETTE ELFICK
