It’s the joy of new beginnings that inspires our February issue every year. The long, hot days that arrive at the tail-end of the decadent festive season are a peaceful time to take stock and reset.

Ever since she can recall, Pip Sumbak has loved cooking with fire. She would invite school friends over to play at her family farm, and cook them lamb chops on a tractor disc plough over a fire. “I guess I was this weird little girl who liked cooking,” Sumbak says with a laugh. That little girl has since travelled the world, training as a chef in France, Spain, Indonesia and Fiji before returning home to settle in Byron Bay. She’s now taken up a place as chef-in-residence at Byron’s luxury coastal estate, Sun Ranch. Here, she offers guests unique Fire Feast experiences. “Cooking with fire – it resonates with everyone,” she says. “I’ve cooked for wealthy people who’ve experienced the best of the best, and they’re still drawn to it.…

Hot honey is so hot right now. If you love sweet and spicy flavours, then this fiery new condiment is about to become your main squeeze. WHAT’S HOT: Mike Kurtz struck liquid gold when he launched Mike’s Hot Honey in the US in 2010. He first discovered the quirky combo in Brazil, before heading back to Brooklyn to bottle his own. He began drizzling his hot honey on pizzas where he worked, and before long, customers were clamouring to take the product home.
