Now open: Residence, Melbourne's most intriguing new concept restaurant

Newly reopened after significant refurbishments, Parkville's Potter Museum of Art has unveiled one of the more interesting new restaurants in town: Residence. The idea is simple. Each year, a new chef takes the helm to introduce a new concept in the space. The annually rotating Chef in Residence program doesn't just treat Melbourne diners to an ever-evolving dining experience year after year; it also supports some of the nation's best up-and-coming chefs in manifesting their wildest restaurant dreams – from mood to menu – into customer-facing reality. Each chef also gets intensive mentorship and a financial stake in the restaurant. Together, Residence's co-founders Nathen Doyle and Cameron Earl bring more than two decades of industry experience to the table. Doyle played an integral role in launching hip Carlton spots like Heartattack and Vine and Sunhands, plus inclusive wine events operator Good Booze Blind, while Earl (who started his career at age 13 as a kitchen hand) has earned his stripes working for some of Melbourne's best-loved venues: Carlton Wine Room, Embla and St. Ali. The inaugural head chef hired to kick off Residence's debut is Robbie Noble. Originally from northern England, Noble brings professional kitchen expertise from his time working across the UK, Paris and Melbourne. From three years at England's Michelin-starred Northcote and a red-hot stint at Paris' cult seafood bar Clamato to a senior sous chef role at fine diner Vue de Monde, Noble's scope of experience alone is impressive – but its his sophisticated idea, Cherrywood, that excited Doyle and Earl. Noble's Cherrywood is the first 12-month project to take over Residence, a place for shared, seasonal produce-led dining, artful sophistication and gathering-style conviviality. Inspired by his upbringing in West Yorkshire , Noble's offering features dishes such as smoked bone marrow and oxtail marmalade on toast, grilled John Dory with tomato butter and tarragon and poached peach with lemon verbena and rum sponge. Noble's roast chicken tea has fast become Cherrywood signature, a crystal-clear broth poured over tarragon oil and black garlic that tastes exactly like roast chicken. Noble explains: 'We're creating an experience that provokes feelings of nostalgia and intrigue through refined country-style cuisine, paired with good technique and high-quality produce.' Want a seat at the table? Residence is now open and you can make a reservation here. 'Cherrywood is cooking that makes room for people,' says Noble. 'It's thoughtful but unfussy, shaped by memory, and always adapting. Residence is the kind of place that lets that sentiment grow — creatively, collaboratively, openly.' Cherrywood is located at the Potter Museum of art at The University of Melbourne's Parkville campus. It seats 60 across its main dining room and adjoining espresso wine bar.

Etihad wants to fit premium features into its smallest plane

When Etihad Airways received its first Airbus SE A380 jets a good decade ago, the airline furnished the front of the giant double decker with a veritable luxury playground it called the Residence, a three-room layout featuring a double bed, living area and shower cubicle - all with a personal butler on hand. #Pahalgam Terrorist Attack India much better equipped to target cross-border terror since Balakot India conducts maiden flight-trials of stratospheric airship platform Pakistan shuts ports for Indian ships after New Delhi bans imports from Islamabad Now, the Abu Dhabi-based carrier wants to squeeze its premium offering into far more constrained quarters: the narrow confines of an Airbus SE A321 long-range aircraft that joins its fleet in the next few months. While Etihad has dispensed with its Residence servant in tailcoats and white cotton gloves, the airline promises amenities like sliding privacy doors, lie-flat seats, and large screens, all packed into an aircraft no wider than a city bus. Etihad's ambitious cabin layout highlights how the workhorse aircraft in the industry - the Airbus A320 family and the Boeing Co 737 - are increasingly pushing into spheres that were once the reserve of large planes. The A321LR and its longer-range sibling, the A321XLR, are built for long-distance routes like Europe to India or across the Atlantic, meaning passengers expect amenities they'd typically enjoy when flying on much bigger aircraft. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Kovilancheri: 3BHK Interiors starting at 4.5 Lakhs HomeLane Get Quote Undo While budget carrier Wizz Air Holdings Plc has chosen to go the no-frills approach with its narrobody long-range jets, other airlines are using the planes to expand premium service on longer routes without needing to fill the more fuel-guzzling and sometimes too-large widebody jets.

Coming soon: Residence, Melbourne's most intriguing new concept restaurant of the year

Set to reopen in May 2025 after significant refurbishments, Parkville's Potter Museum of Art is about to unveil one of the more interesting new restaurants in town: Residence. The idea is simple. Each year, a new chef takes the helm to introduce a new concept in the space. The annually rotating Chef in Residence program doesn't just treat Melbourne diners to an ever-evolving dining experience year after year; it also supports some of the nation's best up-and-coming chefs in manifesting their wildest restaurant dreams – from mood to menu – into customer-facing reality. Each chef also gets intensive mentorship and a financial stake in the restaurant. Together, Residence's co-founders Nathen Doyle and Cameron Earl bring more than two decades of industry experience to the table.

Doyle and Earl have recently announced that the inaugural head chef hired to kick off Residence's debut is Robbie Noble. Originally from northern England, Noble brings professional kitchen expertise from his time working across the UK, Paris and Melbourne. From three years at England's Michelin-starred Northcote and a red-hot stint at Paris' cult seafood bar Clamato to a senior sous chef role at fine diner Vue de Monde, Noble's scope of experience alone is impressive – but its his sophisticated idea, Cherrywood, that excited Doyle and Earl.

Inspired by his time abroad, Noble's offering will feature dishes such as smoked bone marrow and oxtail marmalade on toast, grilled John Dory with tomato butter and tarragon and poached peach with lemon verbena and rum sponge. 'Robbie's proposal for Cherrywood stood out immediately,' says Doyle. 'It's thoughtful, elegant, and built from experience, not ego. His dishes speak softly but confidently, and his leadership style is grounded and generous. That's precisely the kind of energy we want to open with.' Want a seat at the table? We'll need to get through autumn first; Residence isn't set to open until this winter. Luckily, we've got plenty to get excited about while we wait. 'Cherrywood is cooking that makes room for people,' says Noble. 'It's thoughtful but unfussy, shaped by memory, and always adapting. Residence is the kind of place that lets that sentiment grow — creatively, collaboratively, openly.'

The Pirates, and Pollocks, of Penzance

DON'T let the name bother you. You don't need to know your Picassos from your Pollocks to stay at the Artist Residence. You're not obliged to doodle a masterpiece on the napkin. There will be no humiliating quiz at checkout. Nonetheless, those of a creative spirit will love this place. Tucked away in the historic quarter of Penzance, in a tall Georgian house with narrow stairs, this is the kind of retreat that the phrase 'boutique hotel' was coined for, and makes the ideal base for discovering the ancient Cornish town. You won't find many pirates left in Penzance, contrary to expectations raised by the Jolly Roger fluttering from the 17th-century Admiral Benbow directly opposite. This inn was the fictional home of Jim Hawkins in Treasure Island, but spare the staff your best Long John Silver impression, 'Aahaar Jim lad'; they'll have heard it before. Impeccable smokehouse fare at Artists Residence Cornwall Sleeping quarters at the Residence are decorated in quirky, coastal style. Slate and bleached wood abound. Tea chests serve as tables; raw planks for shelves. Roberts radios are plugged in, and tuned to Radio 3 for your tasteful listening pleasure. Downstairs, The Cornish Barn smokehouse is usually packed with residents and locals alike, attracted by the superior BBQ-style cooking and the big lit-up signs. We snaffled a bowl of maple and chilli-roasted nuts and fennel salt pork scratchings before getting stuck into parsnip rösti with caramelised onion and goat cheese, chicken wings with apricot and soy, served by the kind of friendly, attractive staff that Cornwall does so well. Excellent breakfasts are served here too; alternatively, you can have a hamper stuffed with Danish pastries delivered to your room. This is the sort of place where you want the weather report to say, 'Deep frontal system moving in, ahead of an even deeper depression. The Met Office advises the public to make no unnecessary journeys.' The Admiral Benbow - flying the flag for pirates for over 400 years Even if your day has been planned around as little activity as possible, at some point you'll want to get out and explore. The Residence lies on Chapel Street, which runs from the centre of town down to the harbour; this is Penzance's former main street, and along this thoroughfare have marched (or crept) smugglers, soldiers, sailors, pilgrims, and – yes! – pirates. The now defunct Georgian theatre on the street is said to be where the first public announcement of Nelson's victory at Trafalgar took place. Elsewhere in town are art galleries, booksellers and the usual sprinkling of antique and charity shops – reputed to contain rich pickings for bling and bric-a-brac aficionados. Admittedly, the delights of Penzance itself are limited, but this narrow end of the peninsula is the perfect jumping-off point for all the starry beaches and historic little fishing towns so beloved by the guidebooks. Ease yourself in with a walk along nearby Mount's Bay, overlooking the fairytale pile of St Michael's Mount, then head west, taking in the adorable fishing port in Mousehole en route. Remember to call it 'Muzzle', or the locals will laugh at you. Eventually, you'll hit Land's End. It's one of those places you have to tick off your list, bucket or otherwise; a modest enough headland, with some kind of holiday complex thing which you'll probably want to body-swerve, But it's still impressive enough, topographically; paths wend their way above cliffs carved out by the waves of the mighty Atlantic Ocean, while seabirds, basking sharks, seals and dolphins regularly put in an appearance. Looking south - next landfall northern Spain You also need to stick Porthcurno on the list. A sheltered sandy cove, the waters here are among the warmest waters in these islands, thanks to the Gulf Stream, and somehow manage to look as turquoise as the Caribbean on even a grey November day. If sunbathing is off the cards, the coastal path winds round the cove, with great viewing points to watch out for passing cetaceans. It also passes by the Minack, Cornwall's extraordinary open-air amphitheatre, constructed above a gully with a rocky granite outcrop jutting into the sea. The cast will perform in any weather, so don't expect your money back if it rains. See below for a run down on what's coming up at the Minack. A day at the theatre, then back to Penzance, maybe for a drink at the Turk's Head in the heart of the town. Reputed to date from 1233, it takes its name from the 'Turks' — that is, pirates operating from North Africa who were active in the waters round Penzance about that time. The Turk's Head was later a haven for pirates and smugglers, who made use of a tunnel running from the pub to the harbour—still visible from the courtyard today. The Cornish Barn smokehouse at the Artist Residence History of Penzance Penzance, on the western tip of Cornwall, has been shaped by its maritime heritage — through trade and indeed military matters, its strategic position near Land's End has been crucial. The town's name is derived from the Cornish language a Celtic tongue that is now more or less extinct. Pen Sans in Cornish means 'holy headland,' referencing a chapel that once stood on the site of the present-day harbour. A settlement has existed here since at least the Bronze Age, but Penzance rose to prominence in the medieval period as a market town and fishing port. It was frequently targeted by pirates and foreign fleets; in 1595, it was infamously raided and burned by Spanish forces—one of the last foreign attacks on English soil. The 18th and 19th centuries brought prosperity through tin mining, pilchard fishing, and shipping. The arrival of the railway in 1852 linked Penzance to London, transforming it into a popular destination for Victorian holidaymakers. The town is closely associated with Cornish identity and heritage, including links to the arts and folklore. It's also famously referenced in Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera The Pirates of Penzance. Fact file In a nutshell the Artist Residence combines eclectic luxury with a homely, intimate ambience.
