Cityscape Christmas 2019
Bring on the party, Cityscapers! Addington Cup Week kicks off the season we love to love, and we are sooo ready. We bring you all the deets on the biggest week in Christchurch’s social calendar. Important information like what the judges are looking for in The Crossing Fashion Starts Here Best Dressed Competition and stuff about the racing as well, like pointers on how to pick a winner. And thanks to Callam Mitchell and his team at Team Event, Addington Cup Week is just the start of party season. We talk to the promoter putting the icing on Christchurch’s cake this summer. Ladi6 is just one of the fantastic artists he is bringing to town, and we check in with her as well (that’s her gorgeous self on the cover). The days are counting down to Christmas and with that comes the fun and the challenge of finding the perfect gift for all those on your ‘Nice’ list. We live to serve here at Cityscape, and so we have served up a curated Christmas gift guide brimming with ideas fresh and failsafe. Nailing that pressy list is the best reason possible for heading to the central city and exploring its retail hotspots, followed by a drink and some nibbles, of course. We shine our spotlight on what’s new in the inner city, from retail meccas to the hottest hospo hangouts. And if 2020 is looking like the year to put a ring on it, check out our feature on the amazingly creative community of jewellers we have in this city. As always, we also bring you what’s hot in cuisine, events, home and couture.

FOOD & DRINK
Fantasy Fridge
A walk-in wine fridge – yep, you read that
right, Cityscapers – this is for all those who
love wine and love to keep it at its best. Craig
Shaw from Harvey Norman Commercial filled
us in on all you need to know about the
Espace 1000 Bottle Walk in Cellar and we’re
definitely lusting after it. Start collecting
those delicious drops because this killer
fridge can easily fit 1000 bottles inside. Wine
fridges have come a long way from a mini
fridge in the corner of the room – the Espace
has a chic, textured glossy black aluminium
finish that complements the beautiful
wooden shelves inside. It also boasts an
anti-UV glass door, racking and a cooling unit
to keep your bottles at the perfect
temperature, no matter the weather outside
– the fridge even creates a vibration-proof
environment to protect the storage life and
quality of your wine. You can just leave it to
the fridge to take care of everything! Talk to

COOKBOOK
SALAD SIBLINGS
Sisters Margo and Rosa Flanagan have
a mission to change the perceptions of
plant-based food. At The Welder, they
whip up tasty morsels and serve them
over the counter as well as running
cooking workshops. They hope their
new cookbook, Two Raw Sisters:
Changing perceptions on plant-based
food, will inspire people to discover
that fruits and vegetables can be fun,
exciting and delicious, and how to
cook raw, unprocessed ingredients in
an easy, time-efficient way.
