The next restaurant from the Tipo 00 crew is … not Italian
James Kelly, a chef with several years' experience at mod British restaurant Lyle's in London, and several years at Melbourne's own Embla, will draw on France, Spain, Italy and the UK for his menus.
'A lot of Harriot is based around James' food,' says Luke Skidmore, a partner in Conferre Group, which includes Osteria Ilaria, Figlia, Grana and Tipo 00, together covering pizza, pasta, fine dining and a wine bar. Harriot will be the group's first restaurant without an Italian identity.
'It's definitely new,' says Skidmore. 'But the idea for myself and Andreas [Papadakis, chef and fellow partner] is to support younger staff members to do a venue they want to do.'

How The Osbournes changed reality TV
Ozzy Osbourne was an architect of heavy metal music — but that's not the only medium in which he blazed a trail. The rocker, who died on July 22 at the age of 76, also helped shape reality TV. An argument might even be made, for better or for worse, that Osbourne and his family gave rise to the Kardashians. The idea of celebrities doing reality shows was far from common in 2002 when MTV first launched The Osbournes. Ozzy's music career was no longer at its height as he and his wife, Sharon, opened the doors of their home to share their private life with their then-teen children, Jack and Kelly, as well as their beloved pets. Audiences fell in love with the family members, as funny as they were fascinating. It was quite a different version of Osbourne, who was known as the Prince of Darkness for his stage performances, including the now infamous story of him biting the head off a bat. The series featured the British rocker as a domesticated dad who loved to totter around the house, often loudly yelling 'Sharon!' There were also some serious moments. The show documented Sharon Osbourne's colon cancer diagnosis in 2002 and her husband's quad bike accident in 2004. It marked one of the first times an already established celebrity pulled back the curtain on their lives for a more intimate look. The series was so successful that other networks scrambled to replicate it. Within months, E! had debuted The Anna Nicole Show, while MTV launched Newlyweds: Nick And Jessica featuring then-married singers Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson. The next few years brought even more reality shows, including UPN's Britney And Kevin: Chaotic; Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and his then-wife Shanna Moakler's Meet The Barkers on MTV; wrestler Hulk Hogan and his family in Hogan Knows Best on VH1; MTV's Run's House featuring Rev. Run of the rap group Run-DMC and his family; and Bravo's Being Bobby Brown about the lives of married singers Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston — all of which launched in 2005. Eventually both the ratings and the Osbourne family's interest in sharing their lives waned. 'The level of success that TV show got us was too much,' Osbourne told NME in 2020. 'I had to bow out. I said to Sharon: 'I don't like the way it makes me feel and I can't stand f****** cameramen in my house.' 'I'm not upset that I did it, but I wouldn't do it again. 'People were going: 'Aren't you worried about losing your fans?' I said: 'I'm not worried about losing my fans — I'm worried about losing my f****** mind'.' Following Osbourne's death, former MTV executive Van Toffler reflected on the musician's role as reality TV pioneer. 'The language! We had to bleep so much of the dialogue,' Toffler told Variety. 'That became such an integral part of it, the way we bleeped it, how often we bleeped it, and we weren't making it up. 'It was so wrong, but unlike anything else that was on TV.'

Shark attack: Pregnant TV host and wife of former NBA star Danilo Gallinari bitten by shark in Puerto Rico
A pregnant television presenter has revealed the horror moment when she was attacked by a shark close to shore at a resort in Puerto Rico. Eleonora Boi, shared a photo of herself in a hospital bed on Instagram, describing the experience as the 'worst day of my life.' 'I never thought I could get attacked by a shark and I was near the shore and on a super crowded beach,' she wrote in the caption of the photo according to a translation. She explained that she had to have surgery for the injury she sustained on her leg. 'I was rushed to the rescue and the surgery to fix my poor bruised leg went well,' she said. Boi is the wife of former NBA star Danilo Gallinari, and expressed her gratitude for his support during the incident. 'I thank my husband . . . he gave me all his love and courage,' she added. 'Now I just have to recover from the great scare and try to forgive the great friend who betrayed me. Shark will be hearing from my legals soon.' Local police confirmed that a woman suffered an open wound to her thigh at Carolina Resort, Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia reported. 'Based on the photographs provided to us, we believe the characteristics of the bite could be consistent with those of a shark, but to validate this, a series of analyses would be necessary,' Nilda Jiménez said. Boi and Gallinari, who are both from Italy originally, married in July 2022 and share two children. Boi is a sports journalist and presenter and is pregnant with their third child. Danilo Gallinari is an accomplished Italian basketball forward who began his professional career in Italy before being selected 6th overall in the 2008 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks.

‘Always order the lasagne': The inner-west 20-seater locals can't get enough of
A serious snack section leads the menu at Sippenham in Sydenham, which was built on a passion for music, food and community. Previous SlideNext Slide Italian$$$$ A few years ago, in the midst of lockdown, two best mates moved in together and began marking their days with a kaleidoscope of home-cooked food. Friends since high school, chef Nick 'Poodle' Giannopoulos and then-retail bank employee Stephen Mandis were most excited about Friday night's menu. That night, from a tiny, less than fancy oven in their flat, Giannopoulos would serve fat golden focaccia, a pond of olive oil and balsamic vinegar to sweep it through, and a lusty beef shin lasagne with vodka sauce, its surface thick with parmigiano. Nearly five years later, that lasagne, using marrow-in beef shin and pasta sheets handmade by Giannopoulos, is pulling diners from across the city to their 20-seater restaurant, Sippenham, in Sydenham. It's part of a story that began with Mandis becoming fascinated by Giannopoulos' life as a chef. 'I'd wait for him to come home and tell me how his day and the restaurant was,' he says. 'Eventually, it grew this charm, this idea that – as best mates – we could open up our own place together. And here we are, a couple [of] years later.' Since opening in April, Sippenham has been regularly booked out. The restaurant, built with passion for music, food and community, bubbles with a singular camaraderie led by Mandis on the floor, welcoming and checking on diners. It also feels surprisingly luxurious. Perhaps this is because outside, Unwins Bridge Road, the nearby train bridge and Railway Road merge traffic, gritty air and overhead planes. It's a Sydenham kind of magic along with the giant fig tree festooned with fairy lights, the Bonds outlet and a karate school. Inside Sippenham, also inspired by the two friends' love of East London, the emerald-green cushioned chairs, banquette seating, dark green walls and glowing lamps bring an easy-going sophistication. I'm dining alone and that feels entirely comfortable here. The menu starts with a serious snack section, led by the 'Uncle Luke's' fish sanger, its crustless white bread as soft as a doona. There are ribbons of iceberg lettuce, a lovely crumbed swordfish fillet and nicely strong taramasalata. Named after Mandis' long-time fishing friend, you can spot Luke holding prize catches in framed photos on Sippenham's dark green walls. Always order the lasagne – a salubriously layered marvel marked by generous pieces of beef and made from a recipe handed down from Giannopoulos' grandmother. Meanwhile, the malloreddus features chubby curls of pasta served with fleshy king prawns, roast cherry tomatoes, shellfish bisque and chives. Giannopoulos also has a way with meatballs – three lovely herby, orbs as big as the cricket ball held by Shane Warne in another framed photo – and served with melting parmigiano and a rich glug of Napoletana sauce. Wipe the plate clean with salt-flecked focaccia, made in a commercial oven Giannopoulos oversees in the open kitchen. There is a tiramisu being ordered left, right and centre, but I carry a torch for Giannopoulos' brownie-like chocolate cake with its fat wiggle of cremeux evaporating like magic on the tongue. Sippenham is also strong on wine, its ever-changing list curated by importer Lo-Fi Wines, and tonight I drink the lovely Casina Val Liberata's Chiara, a rosé from Monferrato in Italy. To find his feet before the pair opened Sippenham, Mandis spent two years working with Giannopoulos and his parents at their North Ryde restaurant, Fourno, until it closed in 2024 after 20 years. Now they want to leave their own hospitality legacy with Sippenham. 'I'm in this to make people happy,' Mandis says. 'We want to pay tribute to our ancestors, our family and the suburbs and streets that raised us. Every plate is made with love.' Afterwards, a diesel locomotive crossing the railway bridge fills the air with grey smoke. The character and food of Sippenham glows on amid it. Three more 'mates places' to try Cricca Founded by long-time friends Alessio Nogarotto and Giles Gabutina, this small but wondrous spot on Windsor's main shopping strip matches wood-fired bread with burrata laced with mandarin and leek, and ricotta beetroot ravioli, under chandeliers and candlelight. 1/135 George Street, Windsor, Ciro's Pizza Halfway to Wollongong in the seaside village of Thirroul, four mates – Michael Zubrecky, Joel Mucci, Liam Forsythe and Marko Bozic – oversee magnificent wood-fired Neapolitan style pizza, fab mains (try the smoked beef sausage with fava beans and potato) and a bevy of natural wines. 1 Raymond Road, Thirroul, Wharf St Kitchen In 2023, mates Dave Moran and Josh McPhee, founders of Dulwich Hill's The General, took over Marrickville Gold Club's kitchen. A menu featuring beef brisket lasagne, hand-rolled potato gnocchi and southern-fried popcorn chicken is still impressing locals. Good Food reviews are booked anonymously and paid independently.
