Relax. From a roadmap of Miami’s best dining neighborhood to our inaugural list of the local people, places and dishes making a mark on our food scene, we’ve got you covered. FELIPE CUEVAS Now stop counting calories — and start planning your next mesmerizing meal. New Kids on the Block How a girl from Australia and a boy from the Florida Panhandle met over meatloaf, fell for each other in the kitchen and opened a crazy-good restaurant in Miami’s best dining neighborhood. unset Harbour’s Stiltsville Fish Bar is an homage to the love story of chef-partners Janine Booth and Jeff McInnis. The culinary power couple met when McInnis was executive chef at Gigi in Midtown Miami, and Booth paid a visit twice in the same day, lured by his meatloaf special. “I’d never even heard of meatloaf,” recalled Booth, a native of Australia, who was in culinary school at Le Cordon Bleu at the time. “But of course, it wasn’t just any meatloaf. It was made with short rib and caramelized onions and smoked plantains and barbecue sauce. It was amazing. I wanted to know how to make it.” The chance encounter led to an internship with McInnis at Gigi and moving with him to Yardbird Southern Table & Bar when he opened it in Miami Beach in 2011.

  • ELYSE KNOWLES Stellar, 21 April, 2019 Block Party with Winter
    ELYSE KNOWLES Stellar, 21 April, 2019 Block Party With winter quickly approaching, Myer ambassador Elyse Knowles models layered streetwear, perfect for the cooler months It’s common knowledge that Byron Bay is home to more than a few famous faces – most notably Hollywood royalty Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky. But the beach town’s newest residents, model Elyse Knowles and her longtime partner, carpenter Josh Barker, won’t be bombarding their A-list neighbours with invitations to backyard barbecues anytime soon. “We’ve seen them on the beach quite a few times,” explains Knowles. “But we stick to the boundaries. They’re trying to live a normal life, walking their dog with their kids, and just having a ripper time. Everyone here is on the same page – I don’t like being stopped every two seconds, so I wouldn’t ever stop them either.” In addition to the appeal of relative anonymity away from the prying eyes of paparazzi, Knowles, 26, admits their recent move from Melbourne was in part a self-imposed respite from the city lifestyle. “It’s forced me to step back and realise what I really want to be stressing about in my day,” Knowles tells Stellar. “This year I’m going to stop, breathe, relax and enjoy. I’ve been putting a lot of focus on trying to find balance.” Since becoming an Australian household name in 2017 when she and Barker won the 13th season of The Block, Knowles has continued adding to her impressive résumé. A campaign for Seafolly, partnerships with Calvin Klein, Davidoff and Aveda, and a gig following in Jennifer Hawkins’s footsteps as a Myer ambassador further cemented her one-to-watch status.
