A multi-million-dollar venue has opened in a historic Sydney town
'We want Argyle House to not only reinvigorate the local Camden community, but also draw diners from across NSW and beyond as a landmark dining destination, capped off by our unique dining dome experience,' say owners Nichole and Morney Schlebusch.
The rooftop is where you'll find the unique dining dome experience. Guests can opt to dine under the stars (but in the warmth) of the private majestic domes, with set menus available Wednesday to Sunday – including a Champagne and charcuterie option, and a classic steakhouse one.
McQueen's opening menu is all about local produce, umami flavours and ingredients enhanced with char. There's also a separate Japanese menu for those who feel like an extra savoury kick. And a whole page dedicated to steaks – spanning different cuts, price points and marble score.
'We wanted to create a venue the local community didn't know it was missing, but soon won't want to live without,' says McQueen.
Plus, there are private dining rooms and a separate rooftop terrace – a fab option for parties, work events and big celebrations.
Located 65km from Sydney's CBD and often referred to as the birthplace of the Australian wool industry, Camden boasts countryside charm and beautiful heritage buildings. Hopefully, Argyle House Camden will stand tall for years to come.

TV fans all say the same thing as the soaps are taken off air
It's that time of the year again where our favourite soap operas are shunted aside for coverage of the footy or Wimbledon. As a result of the UEFA Women's EURO 2025 coverage on ITV, Emmerdale won't return until Tuesday, July 8. Just as we get back into the swing of things, it's pulled again the following day. It's even worse news if you're a Coronation Street fan, as our next trip to the cobbles isn't scheduled until Thursday, July 10, at the later time of 9pm. Down South it's the same issue, with EastEnders not hitting our screens again until Wednesday, July 9. This week, the BBC soap doubled up episodes on BBC Two, meaning there's a whole eight days before we can get our next slice of Walford drama. Well, it turns out that Metro readers are not impressed. In fact, at the time of writing, a whopping 7.4k of you shared your opinion on our Facebook page last night, when we asked: 'Should soaps be moved for sport?' 802 soap fans even dealt an angry reaction. Brutal. Taking to the comments section, Russ Southgate fumed: 'I hate the summer. Tedious football, Olympics drivel, Wimbledon ping pong and all the other boring sport. Much rather have Emmerdale any day!' 'Put all sport on a channel of its own,' ordered Suzanne Dawson. Nadine Rivers reckoned things were starting to get a little samey. 'Why is the same game of tennis on bbc1 and bbc2?' they questioned. A truly mortified Ann Evans said: 'NOOOO leave our soaps alone !!!' Nigel Simmonds fancied himself as a channel controller, suggesting a nifty solution to the problem: 'Emmerdale & Corrie could easily be put on ITV2/3 or 4 instead.. and Eastenders could be on BBC3.' Carole Harris didn't think that our favourite genre should be the one to move: 'They should have a Sports channel then we can watch our soaps.' It goes without saying that both the soaps and sports coverage are culturally significant to the UK. But the fans remain divided. It seems us Brits aren't the only ones to be facing an issue with the two, as investment in Australian television production and sports was addressed by former Neighbours star Elaine Smith when she spoke to us this week. 'We're going through a difficult time at the moment,' she said. 'I think there's a huge amount the Australian government could be doing for the arts because it's not well supported in this country.

More Trending She added: 'There's so much more that can be done and it's why I became quite passionate about teaching drama. 'We have to invest in the kids and get them engaged in the same way we do with sports. Whether that be painting, music, dance, design or theatre.

Umeda is hosting a month-long summer festival with Bon Odori, live music and art
Summer in Japan means traditional festivals, yukata (light, casual summer kimono) and street performances. And you can enjoy them all in Osaka's bustling Umeda district, home to the city's main transport hub, striking skyscrapers and world-class shopping. Running throughout the month of July, the annual Umeda Yukata Festival features a vibrant line-up of events and activities held across the area's key locations, including Grand Front Osaka and Osaka Station City, to name just a few. While the entire month has something to offer, the main highlights take place around Umekita Plaza (the public square at Grand Front Osaka) over the weekend of July 19-20. Bon Odori dancing and live performances The festival's standout event is undoubtedly the Yukata de Bon Odori on July 19-20. Led by the Kita Ward Regional Women's Association, this joyous celebration invites everyone to come together for some traditional Japanese street dancing. The event is free and open to all. Just head to the yagura stage at Umekita Plaza between 6pm and 8pm, and follow the dancers as classic Japanese tunes fill the air. If you do only one thing during your time in Japan this summer, make it a Bon Odori festival. It's the quintessential and most iconic of all Japanese summer celebrations. Also over the same weekend, join in a traditional water-sprinkling ritual to symbolically cool the streets. Be sure to gather at Umekita Plaza on Saturday July 19 by 4.20pm to take part. If you're after laid-back summer vibes, catch an evening of live music at Umekita Plaza on Friday July 18 from 5pm to 9pm, featuring buskers and gospel choirs from the Osaka School of Music. Then, over the weekend, Shibashima High School's Wadaiko Club will pump up the energy further with powerful taiko drumming performances. Month-long highlights To fully embrace the spirit of summer, drop by the Marutto Yukata Festival at Umekita Ship Hall, where you can step into a full yukata ensemble, the unofficial uniform of the Japanese summer. Rent a yukata, have it styled professionally – complete with hair and make-up – and enjoy strolling through the area in true seasonal fashion. Last but not least, for the cutest photo opportunity, don't miss Ted Hyber, the 3.5-metre-tall green teddy bear installation by French contemporary artist Fabrice Hyber. You'll find him beside the water feature at Umekita Plaza. A local icon since 2018, when he was installed to commemorate Grand Front Osaka's 5th anniversary, Ted is known for dressing up to suit the season. And this summer, he's donning a colourful yukata just for the occasion. For event details and the full schedule, check out the Umeda Yukata Festival website.

Neighbours fans say 'this is so sad' as TV legend makes 'last time' announcement
Neighbours cast member Annie Jones has taken to social media to document her final journey to Ramsay Street as she films scenes as Jane Harris for the last ever episdoe Neighbours legend Annie Jones has taken to social media to post a selfie from her last journey to Ramsay Street. The 58-year-old actress plays Jane Harris in the long-running Australian soap which is coming to an end for the second time. Annie logged into her Instagram page to share a snap in the car which she captioned: "On our way to Ramsay. St for the LAST time." Unsurprisingly, her emotional update was inundated with supportive message from fans who are heartbroken that the show is ending. One fan penned: "So sad it is ending again. Enjoy your last day of filming and I really hope it will be saved again and come back. I have watched it since the beginning and I'm 72 now and not ashamed to say I love it. So going to miss you all, I watch it at 5.30 like the old days. Hope you all find work again but still hope Neighbours will get saved." Another added: "That is so sad, sending best wishes to all of you wonderful cast and crew who have given us so much through our favourite show. This cannot be the end #saveneighbours." A third person agreed: "Let's really really hope it is not goodbye forever,it is too good a show not to be saved, thank you and all the cast and crew over the years for giving us fans so much joy when watching." A fourth person wrote: "This is so sad. I've watched right from the beginning. Still hoping somewhere it will be picked up xx." It was announced earlier this year that Neighbours had been axed just two years after moving to Amazon Freevee. The daytime TV staple was saved by the streaming platform in 2022 just months after its finale aired on Channel 5, who had axed it earlier that year. In late 1985, original producers Seven Network dropped it after eight months due to poor ratings. However, ival channel Network 10 saw potential and it returned two months later, with a huge publicity campaign and introduction of mega stars Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Guy Pearce as new teenage characters Charlene, Scott and Mike. Kylie and Jason returned for the finale on Channel 5 in 2022 but they will not appear in the last episode of the Amazon Freevee era, it has been confirmed. The last episode is set to air in December and shoe producer Jason Herbison has previously opened up about what to expect for the last instalment. "I've already written it, and I would say that I definitely am not going to try and compete with that finale', he told Back to the Bay, noting the 2022 episode. "I haven't picked up the phone to Jason [Donovan] and Kylie [Minogue] and Guy [Pierce] again. I've left them alone, but it will be very similar in tone. "I think it's a very warm, hopeful tone, but it's also a little bit different. There are things about it that I think might remind people of the previous finale, but it's also very different.
