ABOUT MEJURI

Mejuri is the category-defining fine jewelry brand designing pieces to elevate your every day. Feeling disconnected from the narrative fine jewelry is an occasional purchase typically marketed to men, Co-founder and CEO Noura Sakkijha leveraged her learnings as a third-generation jeweler to launch the brand in 2015: resulting in redefining the way women think of and purchase fine jewelry—for themselves. The company pioneered the ‘drop’ model in the fine jewelry industry and refreshes its collections weekly. Mejuri’s success is inextricably linked to the brand’s highly engaged community, including over one million Instagram followers. The brand has sold 3.5M pieces of jewelry since inception and is worn by celebrities such as Selena Gomez, Lizzo, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Oprah, Bella Hadid, Emily Blunt and Margot Robbie. In 2020, the brand launched The Mejuri Empowerment Fund in support of higher education for underrepresented women and non-binary individuals.

Chef Mickey Zhao 趙健彬: Baking Bread, Breaking Boundaries「用心」烘焙無邊國度

Chinese bakeries are famous around the world for their unique selection of ‘Chinese Western Pastries’: buns, cakes and tarts that are best described as a combination of Chinese bakers’ imaginations and Western-style baked goods. Colonial life in Hong Kong brought together different ethnicities and demographics whose cultures and ideas inevitably co-mingled over time. Egg tarts, pineapple buns and coconut cocktail buns are perfect examples of this gastronomic mélange and can be credited to the legions of bakers colloquially referred to as ‘beng lou’ or ‘min baau lou’ — this literally translates to ‘bakery men’ or ‘bread men.’

After returning to Canada from years of working at groundbreaking restaurants like the Michelin 3 Starred The Fat Duck in England and Liberty Private Works in Hong Kong, Chef Ken Yau launched k.Dinners, a pop-up supper club concept in Toronto. These were multi-course, experiential tasting dinners for just 16 guests in a different location every week. Those lively evenings of great food and convivial conversations around a communal table came to an abrupt stop when the pandemic hit. Suddenly, Ken was left scrambling to think of another source of revenue.

Chef Craig Wong: Food + Sustainability 王智榮: 永續的飲食革命

We caught up with Chef Craig Wong, the Toronto-based owner of the award-winning restaurant Patois and upcoming Bar Mignonette, to explore his views on sustainability. We wanted to know what the actual practice of this word versus lip service means to him as a chef, restaurateur and cultural champion. During the pandemic, he was a part of a collaboration with IKEA that focused on cooking with scraps. That exercise, in turn, inspired the images in our feature. In this special conversation, we examine the concept of sustainability through three lenses: first as a culinary philosophy, then towards the preservation of culture and, finally, the conservation of the restaurant industry.
