Melbourne's hottest new gallery restaurant is all about platforming rising-star chefs
Contemporary$$$$
Built on the premise of platforming young chefs, Parkville restaurant Residence is essentially an incubator, where every year a new rising-star chef will get the opportunity to execute their own dining concept before passing the baton on. The 60-seater, run by Nathen Doyle (Heartattack and Vine, Sunhands) and Cameron Earl (Carlton Wine Room), is in the Potter Museum of Art at the University of Melbourne's Parkville campus.
The first chef in residence is British-born Robbie Noble, whose CV spans Michelin-starred Northcote in England; three-hatted fine diner Vue de Monde; and Clamato, one of the coolest wine bars in Paris. Called Cherrywood, Noble's venue is all about 'refined country cooking' that's nostalgic for his upbringing in West Yorkshire but unafraid of fancy flourishes.
You're going to want to start with a cup of tea. Well, sort of. Listed on the menu as 'Mum's roast chicken', it is in fact a broth that's golden-hued and deeply flavoursome, poured tableside from a retro teapot. Despite a few cheffy additions, including tarragon oil and black garlic, the flavour still channels the original dish.
Love oysters? Love Welsh rarebit? Get the best of both worlds in one bite: Sydney rock oysters served baked, cheesy and Worcestershire-sauced. (If you prefer, you can have yours natural with verjuice granita). Continuing the sea theme, sardine fillets are soused in mezcal, with wafer-thin slices of cucumber layered between. More rustic is the smoked bone marrow with oxtail marmalade – add on pudgy sourdough rolls so you can swipe through all the sauciness.
For a more traditional sweet finish, there's the leatherwood honey tartlet with folds of preserved persimmon. Or you can stay on the savoury train with one of the best-on-ground dishes: a wedge of beautifully burnished leek tarte tatin with a (similarly sized) wedge of 18-month-aged comte cheese.
Good to know: From 8am on weekdays and 11am on Saturdays, Residence also operates as a cafe, with Assembly coffee and tea, Iris pastries, a few sangers and salads, and a small retail area.

Pop star Jessie J shares positive news in health battle
Pop star Jessie J's cancer has not spread following her recent mastectomy. The 37-year-old British singer and former The Voice Australia judge has taken to social media to share a positive health update amid her ongoing cancer battle. In a video posted on Instagram, Sky - Jessie's two-year-old son - says: "Mummy is going to be OK." Jessie captioned the video: "And…I AM OK" "Results = I have NO cancer spread. "Happy tears are real. "Thank YOU for the prayers, the love, the well wishes, the joy and all the positive energy." Jessie then provided some context to her son's video message. She explained: "This video is from the night before my surgery. We called it baby boy. You are my biggest ray of light and with you in my life the darkness will never win." "Lots of healing to go and one more surgery to make these cousins look more like sisters. But for now it's gratitude time and I am changing my name to The LopJess monster (sic)" Jessie first shared news of her cancer diagnosis via an Instagram post on June 3. The chart-topping pop star admitted at the time that she'd been "going back and forth" over whether to share the news with the public. She said in a video message: "I want to share it with my fans and the people that care about me, and also I'm a sharer. I've always shared everything that I go through in my life. Before No Secrets came out, I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. "I'm highlighting the word early. Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding on to the word early. I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period." Jessie confessed at the time that she was still trying to process the news herself. However, she ultimately felt it was important that she shared the news with her fans. The Price Tag hitmaker said: "I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories."

Sabrina Carpenter shares why Sharpest Tool is a song that is 'really special' to her at BST Hyde Park in London
Sabrina Carpenter bared her soul at her BST Hyde Park show telling fans she has learned a lot about herself as a person from conversations she "didn't get to have with people". The pop superstar performed two headline sets at the music festival in London and during her second night on Sunday (06.07.25) she took a moment to speak candidly with her "Carpenters" about the songs which have a deeper meaning for her. Before performing an acoustic version of Sharpest Tool, Sabrina admitted the track was "really special" to her because of how writing it helped her process the end of a relationship with an ex-boyfriend. She said: "I wanted to sing a song for you guys that's a little bit different to how I normally do it on tour. Probably for some of you this is the first time I've ever met you guys. We played a few shows at The O2 not so long ago and I think some of you were there. "This song is really, really special to me, I want to sing it in this way because I feel I can be so much closer to you guys. "When I wrote this song, I was really, really in my head. Sometimes when you're writing songs they're not always going to be the most confident and relatable songs, they're going to be a little bit insecure, they're going to be things that maybe you're going to be scared to put in a song. When I was writing this I was in the middle of a situation where I really wanted to have a conversation with someone that I knew was never going to happen. I kept asking myself, 'Why do I feel like I need to have this conversation with this person so much in order to feel like I can move on and feel whole?' "That gave me a big realisation that some of the conversations that taught me the most were the ones I didn't get to have with people and I had to give myself those answers. It's called Sharpest Tool." Sharpest Tool features on her hit album Short n' Sweet, and Sabrina previously revealed that the LP's title was inspired by her past romances. In an interview with Apple Music, Sabrina - whose ex-boyfriends include singer Shawn Mendes, actor Joshua Bassett and Saltburn star Barry Keoghan - said: "I called it Short n' Sweet for multiple reasons. "I thought about some of these relationships and how some of them were the shortest I've ever had, and they affected me the most.' Elsewhere during her set on Sunday evening, Sabrina paid tribute to her fans for enduring a thunderstorm during the afternoon to get the best spot to see her. She said: "We really turned that weather around didn't we. Raise your hand if you were damp earlier. Guys it's really, really sweet of you to wait outside, I know you're used to this because this is your land, but seriously thank you, that means so much to me." And before singing Coincidence, Sabrina thanked the British crowd for making her a headliner just two years since she supported BLACKPINK at BST Hyde Park. She gushed: "London, I actually don't understand how this is possible but you guys sold out two nights, 65,000 people at Hyde Park. "I believe two years ago I was playing a show here for about 5,000 people and before that I was opening for many different talented artists and I was just, like, dreaming of this day and this moment. I am just so grateful for everybody who came here." Sabrina's set was packed with hits, including Taste, new single Manchild and Please Please Please. For her performance of Bed Chem, the 26-year-old singer frolicked with her dancers on a bed as the song switched to Ginuwine's Pony for a raunchy dance routine. At one point, Sabrina cryptically urged her fans to "howl" in unison before she introduced legendary band Duran Duran on stage and performed a duet of Hungry Like the Wolf with Simon Le Bon. Sabrina closed her show with global smash single Espresso complete with fireworks lighting up the London night sky. American Express presents BST Hyde Park continues this week with sporting event PDC Presents Hyde Park Darts on Tuesday (08.07.25), Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts on Friday (11.07.25), Stevie Wonder on Saturday (12.07.25) and Jeff Lynne's ELO on Sunday (13.07.25). As well as the music other highlights at the event include the House of Peroni bar which brings a taste of the Amalfi coast's blissful shores to Hyde Park, food stalls and funfair rides.
