Filet-O-Fish and salt & vinegar onion rings: a French dinner inspired by a Happy Meal
Poodle Bar & Bistro in Melbourne and Parlour in Sydney are both lively French restaurants with a cheeky sense of humour. So, when the two venues decided to team up for a special one-off dinner, the idea of a 'French Happy Meal' came to mind. This concept comes to life in a menu of Frenchy snacks and delicious crispy things, available for one night as part of Poodle x Parlour presented by QT, hosted by Good Food Events. The dinner happens on Thursday, June 26, at QT's ground floor diner, Parlour. Emma Dawson, who started at Poodle Bar & Bistro in Fitzroy as a junior sous chef and now leads the team as executive chef, will be showcasing some of the hatted restaurant's most iconic dishes. 'When you're cooking in another city, you want to show people exactly what you're about,' she says. One such dish is Poodle's steak tartare, which is topped with a soy-cured yolk for 'umami, savoury flavour' and a tarragon mayo, then showered in fried herbs. For this event, Dawson decided to add salt and vinegar onion rings to the side. 'They're a wicked little snack,' she says.

Former Braves Star Rips Into Ex-MVP Over Recent Social Media Comment
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When your superstar, the face of your franchise, and a former MVP makes an alarming comment on social media, it is always going to catch the attention of national media and turn into a story. That is exactly what has happened with the Atlanta Braves and Ronald Acuña Jr. Acuña has been in the headlines since Sunday when he took to X to express his displeasure over manager Brian Snitker's comments on a play from Saturday's game. PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA - MAY 26: Ronald Acuña Jr. #13 of the Atlanta Braves walks off the field with trainers after an apparent injury in the first inning during the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at... PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA - MAY 26: Ronald Acuña Jr. #13 of the Atlanta Braves walks off the field with trainers after an apparent injury in the first inning during the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park on May 26, 2024 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. MoreIn Saturday's win against the Twins, Braves outfielder Jarred Kelenic hit a fly ball that he thought was a home run. Kelenic did not hustle out of the box and ended up being thrown out at a second base. Prior to Sunday's game, manager Brian Snitker was asked if he addressed the situation with Kelenic and he gave a rather interesting response. "Yeah, you don't run and it's a big time (in the game) like that, yeah," he said, via The Athletic. "But quite honestly, I don't look for (Kelenic) to not do that, because he plays with his hair on fire all the time and he's laying out (for fly balls). And I didn't know it till I saw this morning. I went in and I looked at it when I got here, and then I had a discussion with him, and we got it squared away." Evidentially, Acuña did not take too kindly to those words and he had a rather shocking response under an X post from Braves beat writer Mark Bowman. Last night Jarred Kelenic was tagged out at 2nd base after admiring a ball in the batter's box for too long Ronald Acuña has commented: — Barstool Baseball (@StoolBaseball) April 20, 2025 A superstar like Acuña commenting on the matter in that way was rather shocking, and it left a bad taste in the mouths of former Atlanta players, including former outfielder Jeff Francoeur. He went on 680 The Fan's radio show on Tuesday and gave his assessment on the entire situation. Frenchy comments on the Ronald Acuña/Snit situation (from 680 The Fan) — Michael Harris II's Headband (@ATLHeadband) April 22, 2025 When listening, it is evident Francoeur was not a fan in the least bit of Acuña's actions, going even as far to say the Braves don't need him, as shown by their World Series championship in 2021 with Acuña on the injured list. Braves fans are surely hoping this entire situation will blow over and both former and current Atlanta players can move on from the situation. Acuña is set to return to action at the end of May, and he will hope to help the Braves win their second World Series championship in a five-year span.
