Coffee in the morning, wine in the evening, and never the twain shall meet. But what if there are more connections than we might imagine between these two beverages? Elika Rowell moved from the coffee industry, where she was a longtime barista, roaster and business owner to run the family business at Jamsheed Wines, an urban winery and eatery in Melbourne’s north.

People get obsessed with all kinds of food styles and cuisines. There’s tradition and detail in everything from sushi to burgers to French fine dining. All give the opportunity to go deep.

But I do think there’s a special kind of obsession that grabs those who dive into American barbecue. The cuts, the rubs, the salt, the smoke, the time, the care. KC Hildebrand is the founder of Wildfire Craft BBQ in Geelong. KC has cooked at all kinds of restaurants, including fine dining. Why has Texas barbecue now hooked him in?

Back in 2019, I reviewed a restaurant called Ercolano in Patterson Lakes, an outer bayside suburb of Melbourne. I liked the place. Nino Cucciniello and his family put everything into their restaurant: the pasta, the pizza, the sausages, all made in house. After making it through the pandemic, Ercolano burnt down in 2022. There was a fire in an adjoining tobacco shop which destroyed this family business. It was the first arson attack of more than 200 in the what became known as Victoria’s tobacco wars. Now, more than four years later, Ercolano has relaunched in collaboration with local cafe 38 South, owned by previous customers.
