What to expect at Melbourne's latest European bistro by the Tipo 00 crew
Previous SlideNext Slide
European$$$$
Harriot, the Conferre Group (Tipo 00, Osteria Ilaria, Figlia and Grana)'s fifth venue, is its first not to identify as Italian. Its identity is broadly European, fusing the best parts of the team's favourite wine bars and neo-bistros in London, France, Italy and Spain – venues that marry classical cooking with modern flourishes while exuding an effortless cool.
Chef James Kelly (Embla)'s offering will look slightly different every week, but stars of his opening menu include a rye tartlet filled with fermented porcini mayonnaise and bluefin tuna; and lamb sweetbreads, cooked sous vide in brown butter and finished in a grenobloise-like sauce with the addition of finger lime.
Pig's-head terrine is the tip of the iceberg in Kelly's commitment to whole-animal butchery, one of many uses for the McIvor Farm pigs he sources. Dark-crusted sourdough baked in the wood-burning oven, and two types of house-made pasta are anchor items. You might also find gnocchi in swirls of cavolo-nero puree and comte cream with a generous shaving of black truffle, and spanner-crab ravioli with a bisque that uses fermented pumpkin in place of tomato.

North 54, a modern Vietnamese snack bar from an emerging cooking talent, is coming to Leederville this winter
In his short yet action-packed career as a chef, Bac Pham has cooked many cuisines. He's cooked modern Australian at State Buildings' bustling Petition Kitchen. He's dabbled in Italian cucina at Swanbourne wine bar Vinotto. He's even helped advance the new-wave bowlo food movement with the Special Delivery crew at Doubleview Bowling Club. This July, Pham finally gets to focus full-time on the flavours of his heritage when he opens North 54: a fresh-faced, 25-seat eatery in Leederville serving Vietnamese food. Vietnamese food, it's worth mentioning, as viewed through the lens and life story of a Vietnamese-born, Australian-raised latecomer to the cooking game. 'It's authentic, but it's definitely not traditional [Vietnamese cooking],' says Pham. 'I'm cooking traditional recipes but not doing them the traditional way.

I feel like I'm ready...': Kelly Osbourne 'seriously' thinking about doing her own reality TV show
Kelly Osbourne is "seriously" considering a reality TV comeback. The 40-year-old actress-and-singer - who shot to fame in the reality programme The Osbournes when she was 17 - has had "about three offers" from TV networks to do her own reality TV show, and Kelly feels like she can "handle" the scrutiny better now she is older. In an interview with the new issue of Britain's HELLO! magazine, Kelly revealed: "I've had about three offers to do a reality show based on me, which I'm seriously thinking about doing. "I feel like I'm ready to do reality again. I know how to handle myself, I know what comes along with it and I know that the more honest you are, the less people have on you." Kelly says her own TV show will allow her to be known for more than Ozzy Osbourne's daughter. She added: "I want to make my mark on the world. I've been Ozzy's daughter for a very long time, and now it's time for me to do what I want to do." But however busy her work schedule is, Kelly insisted she will always be the one to look after her and Sid Wilson's three-year-old son Sidney. She said: "I don't want anyone else to raise my kid; I'm going to do it." Kelly dreams of having a large family. She said: "I want at least one more. "I want to have as many kids as I can, and then adopt." But during her pregnancy, Kelly "hid from the world" because she was worried about being mocked about her weight. She explained: "I didn't leave the house for nine months because I didn't want what happened to Jessica Simpson to happen to me (trolling about her body). "I thought it was so evil. So I just hung out with my dad for nine months, and it was great. I did hide from the world because of that. "Honestly, he was amazing. He used to say, 'You look like a house.' My mum [Sharon Osbourne] had to tell him to stop saying how big I was. "I was 220lb and on my small frame, I literally couldn't walk through a doorway. "I had gestational diabetes and was so over being pregnant by the time it was done."
