The Cheat Sheet: GucciGhost, Riva 100’ Corsaro and Kirk Westaway of Jaan

The US tradition of Thanksgiving Day isn’t something that’s widely celebrated here. But one thing that some of us do (and are most willing to) partake in, are its subsequent Black Friday sales. While not many local brick-and-mortar shops have jumped on the bandwagon, a number of our favourite online stores have slashed their prices on a wide range of cosmetics, shoes and apparel, giving us more than enough reason to enjoy some retail therapy.

But if you’re not so keen on spending your Friday night frantically hitting the “add to cart” button, rest and recharge at home — while reading some of our stories — instead. This week, we chatted with Jaan’s Chef de Cuisine Kirk Westaway about his journey towards his first Michelin star, sussed out some seriously stylish champagne packaging, and had a look at the new Riva 100’ Corsaro maxi flybridge.
