- XAL DALI Lights (similar
available at estlighting.com.au)
We use an iPad to control all
the XAL lighting in the restaurant
through the networked-based
DALI [Digital Addressable
Lighting Interface] system,
which is incredibly useful. - DYSON Supersonic
($499, dyson.com.au)
I love my Dyson hairdryer as it
really does dry my hair much
faster than other products. - NIHOLA Electric
Cargo Family Bike ($POA,
dutchcargobike.com.au)
We don’t own a car. I use my
electric cargo bike from Nihola
to carry the kids, our dog and the
groceries. I can travel at around
25 kilometres per hour and I’m
never stuck in traffic. It’s amazing.
SOUND
CHOICE
The sound-based apps
and podcasts Nadine
tunes in to daily
INSIGHT TIMER
I meditate twice per day,
and this app is great
as it has around 19,000
guided meditations in
30 languages.
RAIN RAIN SLEEP
SOUNDS
I also like to use this app
when I meditate. It has
a range of specific sounds,
from “beach ambience”
to ”rain on a tent”.
THE DAVE CHANG
SHOW
Disclaimer: David, who is
the founder of Momofuku
restaurants and the creator
and host of Netflix’s Ugly
Delicious, has been a good
friend for many years, but
I like the thought-provoking
people he has on
this podcast.
FREAKONOMICS
RADIO
This podcast is really
interesting, with each
episode discussing a
different issue, such as how
to handle pressure, think
positively and manage
your income.
- SONOS One Smart
Speaker ($299, sonos.com)
We have these throughout the
house and restaurant and use
an iPad to control them, using
the music on the Sonos app.
I particularly love having a
speaker in the bathroom at home. - VERMICULAR Musui-
Kamado (approx $517,
vermicular.us)
This rice cooker from Japan is
incredible, I use it every day.
My husband René and I work
out together every morning
during the week with a trainer
and we almost always have
a bowl of rice with different
toppings afterward.

- NEST Protect
($189, jbhifi.com.au)
I adore the Nest fire alarms.
They’re so smart in that they
send an alert to your mobile
if you’re not there and if it’s a
false alarm, you can turn them
off by pressing a button on your
phone. I also like the way they
give warnings in a softly spoken
voice before the alarm sounds. - FATIGUE SCIENCE
Readiband ($POA,
fatiguescience.com)
This is a watch that looks a little
like a Fitbit, but it monitors your
sleep. It tells you how deeply
you have slept, how many times
you’ve awoken during the night
and gives you an alertness
score for the day ahead.
THERMOMIX ($2,089,
thermomix.com.au)
We love this in the kitchen
because it can cook while
it’s blending. It’s very clever.
MUSSO Mini Ice
Cream Maker ($1,070,
prestigeproducts.com.au)
I have my own recipe for vanilla
ice cream which I enjoy making
when I have the time. E
