In this issue

Summer is hot on our tail and our November issue is bringing the heat on all that’s hot and happening in the city to ensure you stay two steps ahead of the game. We touch base with indie-folk singer-songwriter Mel Parsons (our sassy cover star) on what’s been happening since her last album and how her new album Glass Heart came to fruition. Polyglot songstress Tui Mamaki returns to New Zealand shores after a hiatus in Bulgaria and gives us the low-down on her hotly anticipated album release tour Fly, musical-theatre royalty Elaine Paige drops in for a chat and we also have a yarn with Kiwi actor Jay Laga’aia, who spills the deets on crazy fan requests, being a father and starring in Star Wars. Skipping the trackside antics at Cup Day? No worries, we’ve done the rounds and hand-picked the best haunts to hit up to still feel part of the race-day action. We’ve also compiled the ultimate Christmas guide, which will give you lots of inspo for when you leave your Christmas shopping to the last minute – it’s OK, we’re all guilty! We indulge in fierce culinary goodness down at Terrace Tavern and Sister Kong, the latter having unleashed a drool-worthy new menu courtesy of their new head chef … plus we take our movie experiences to a whole new level (of the luxury variety) and kick back in the plush surrounds of Hoyts Lux. Plus we drop the details on the crème de la crème of what’s hot in cuisine, couture and culture.
