A brand-new restaurant has burst onto the scene in Bowral, tucked into a 200-year-old farmhouse and powered by culinary heavyweights from Quay and The Gantry—plus a MasterChef alum. Backed by farming titan Annie Cannon-Brookes, the spot’s every detail—from knife handles made of salvaged timber to horseshoe cutlery rests—is crafted with farm-to-table reverence. Their $21 tasting menu turns humble farm ingredients into art: sweet-savory potato dishes, cover crops reimagined for digestibility. Part of Burradoo Park Farm, it’s the latest in a trio of eateries (including a bakery and casual spot) all spotlighting local bounty like puntarelle, lamb, and radicchio. Drinks? All regional NSW. Zero waste, maximum flavor—this isn’t just dinner, it’s a destination.

With over 160,000 potentially dropped from the scheme, advocates warn the changes ignore individual needs, deepening anxiety and depression in a system already overwhelmed by red tape and uncertainty.

Oil prices plunge below $80 a barrel as hopes rise for a U.S.-Iran deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, easing inflation fears—while Wall Street stays near all-time highs, with the Dow up and S&P 500 dipping slightly.

In a quirky battle on the Great Ocean Road, residents of Lorne are locked in a smart showdown with sulphur-crested cockatoos who’ve mastered the art of trash raiding—especially on Monday mornings. After years of failed fixes like weighted lids and chewed-up rubber strips, locals Allan Walls and Gary Fenton engineered a simple, genius solution: a plastic apron that stops birds from gripping bin lids. Tested for five years with zero failures, the design has won over the council, which invested $50,000 to outfit 500 bins—saving millions in future costs. Bird experts praise its potential for wider use, highlighting a win for community innovation, recycled materials, and coexistence in a world reshaped by humans.

RBA governor Michele Bullock holds rates steady at 4.35% but warns more hikes are possible if inflation doesn’t cool — a verbal threat aimed at forcing inflation into submission. While markets remain skeptical, betting on a 50-50 chance of another hike, major banks like Commonwealth, ANZ, and NAB now predict rate cuts next year, citing slowing growth and cooling housing markets. Westpac stands out, still expecting hikes before easing. The RBA’s tough talk is likely a strategic delay, hoping to keep borrowers and markets on edge — and possibly shifting to a more dovish tone by August — before any real relief hits mortgage holders.

Sydney’s middle suburbs are set for a housing boom unlike any in decades, with thousands of new apartments fast-tracked by a state-level Housing Delivery Authority. Skipping local councils, the government is accelerating projects around train stations in areas like Canada Bay and Ryde, where higher prices and existing infrastructure make development more profitable. While the plan aims to solve Sydney’s housing crisis, residents in Lane Cove and Concord West fear overwhelmed schools, roads, and services. The real test? Whether infrastructure can keep up with the rush.

Seven Network’s massive layoffs hit 250-300 staff, with newsrooms in Sydney and Melbourne hardest hit — and a glaring gender imbalance: only one of nine publicly named reporters let go was male. The cuts follow the Seven-Southern Cross merger and come as market conditions worsened faster than expected, leaving even previously spared on-air talent vulnerable. High-profile exits include Natarsha Belling and Brianna Jackson, while others like Estelle Griepink took voluntary redundancy during maternity leave, sparking concern. CEO Rohan Lund called it tough choices, but employees described a chaotic process — some got job calls mere hours after leaks. One reporter shared her shock on TikTok, underscoring how volatile the media landscape has become for dedicated journalists.
