Perth's best steak sandwich: Carrington's Bar & Grill defends title for second year
Carrington's Bar & Grill in Hamilton Hill has taken home the prize for best steak sandwich in Perth for the second year in a row, proving that a 'classic' take on the sandwich can be the best. After winning last year with their creamy, smokey TNT sandwich, the team returned in 2025 with bold new creation The Wild Thing, a tribute to the 1960s rock classic and a reinvention of the classic pub steak sandwich. Chef Jaspreet Singh said the 13-minute cook-off competition was full of pressure, especially since he wanted to win back-to-back. Mr Singh described the steak sandwich as very innovative and stood out thanks to the mixture of flavours. 'We had two different types of bacon in the steak sandwich; one was beef bacon that you don't see very often in the steak sandwiches,' he said. 'Normally people use pork bacon, so I use beef bacon, which is like cured beef brisket that was thinly sliced, cured with black cracked pepper; it is a really good texture, 'And then you have second bacon, candy bacon, which is marinated in honey and brown sugar and honey whiskey. So it'll give you sweetness.' Having sold more than 600 of the steak sandwiches already, Mr Singh said customer feedback was 'out of this world'. 'We really work hard for the steak sandwiches; it shows the passion and the commitment we have for the industry.' he said. The Wild Thing will set meat lovers back $29.50 and has 200g of scotch fillet, candy bacon, beef bacon, Swiss cheese, rocket, tomato, onion, homemade barbecue sauce and Turkish bread served with a side of fried pickle and McCain beer-battered chips. Carrington's Bar & Grill was up against Print Hall in the CBD, The Central in Butler and The Last Local in Canning Vale. AHA (WA) CEO and chief steak sandwich judge Bradley Woods said the standard of all the finalists was nothing short of exceptional. 'These talented chefs have elevated the humble steak sandwich to new heights, proving it remains a firm favourite on pub menus and a true showcase of culinary creativity,' he said. 'The competition celebrates great food as well as shining a spotlight on the passion, innovation and skill within WA's hospitality sector, supporting venues, engaging customers and driving foot traffic.' Last year, Carrington's took home the prize with a completely different recipe, which was a smokey sandwich that had scotch fillet and was layered with crispy bacon, bourbon infused toffee onion, rocket, zesty barbecue aioli and roasted capsicum blend in a Turkish panini with peri peri chips. 'This year's sandwich is completely different than the TNT,' Mr Singh said. 'We wanted to do something classic this year.' With two titles under their belt, the Carrington Bar & Grill team already have their eyes set on a three-peat. 'It's a real booster for me and my team ... we're just going to have to do better next year.' he said. The Australian Hotels Association WA and Little Creatures WA's Best Steak Sandwich competition was at the Crown Towers ballroom as part of the 2025 AHA hospitality expedition and has been running for 18 years.

SpaceX Starship rocket explodes in setback to Musk's Mars mission
Flames rise as a SpaceX rocket explodes in Brownsville, Texas, U.S., June 18, 2025, in this screengrab obtained from a social media video. TheRocketFuture via X/via REUTERS By Jaspreet Singh and Cassell Bryan-Low SpaceX's massive Starship spacecraft exploded into a dramatic fireball during testing in Texas late on Wednesday, the latest in a series of setbacks for billionaire Elon Musk's Mars rocket program. The explosion occurred around 11 p.m. local time while Starship was on a test stand at its Brownsville, Texas Starbase while preparing for the tenth test flight, SpaceX said in a post on Musk's social-media platform X. The company attributed it to a "major anomaly" and said all personnel were safe. Its engineering teams were investigating the incident, and it was coordinating with local, state and federal agencies regarding environmental and safety impacts, the company said. "Preliminary data suggests that a nitrogen COPV in the payload bay failed below its proof pressure," Musk said in a post on X, in a reference to a nitrogen gas storage unit known as a Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessel. "If further investigation confirms that this is what happened, it is the first time ever for this design," he continued. The Starship rocket appeared to experience at least two explosions in quick succession, lighting up the night sky and sending debris flying, according to video capturing the moment it exploded. The 400-foot (122-meter) tall Starship rocket system is at the core of Musk's goal of sending humans to Mars. But it has been beset by a string of failures this year. In late May, SpaceX's Starship rocket spun out of control about halfway through a flight without achieving some of its most important testing goals. The Starship lifted off from SpaceX's Starbase, Texas, launch site, flying beyond the point of two previous explosive attempts earlier this year that sent debris streaking over Caribbean islands and forced dozens of airliners to divert course. Two months earlier, the spacecraft exploded in space minutes after lifting off from Texas, prompting the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to halt air traffic in parts of Florida. Videos on social media showed fiery debris streaking through the dusk skies near South Florida and the Bahamas after Starship broke up in space shortly after it began to spin uncontrollably with its engines cut off, a SpaceX live stream of the mission showed. Musk called that explosion "a minor setback." The FAA said earlier this month that it had closed an agency-required investigation into the mishap, citing the probable cause as a hardware failure in one of the engines. SpaceX identified eight corrective actions to prevent a recurrence and the FAA said it verified SpaceX implemented those prior to the late May Starship mission. In January, a Starship rocket broke up in space minutes after launching from Texas, raining debris over Caribbean islands and causing minor damage to a car in the Turks and Caicos Islands. © Thomson Reuters 2025.

5 Most Impactful Financial Changes To Make Today, According to Jaspreet Singh
A Pew Research Center survey found that only 37% of Americans believed their finances would be in better shape within one year. Many reported struggling to cover their medical care or housing costs and needing to get loans from loved ones. Explore Next: Check Out: If you're unhappy with your situation, you need to figure out exactly what to focus on so you can become more financially secure. This likely involves going beyond eliminating small, frequent expenses, like your daily premium coffee. A YouTube video from money expert Jaspreet Singh explained five changes that will have the biggest impact on your finances — start making these moves today. Singh said it's common to unknowingly pay too much in fees for your retirement account. Various funds have an expense ratio that you pay for annually, depending on your earnings and investments. While the fee might seem small, it could cost you hundreds of thousands or even millions. Singh gave examples of the VFIAX and GFACX funds with respective expense ratios of 0.04% and 1.36% and average returns of 12.5% and 12.6%. If you spent 30 years investing $1,000 per month in those funds, you'd reach $3.56 million with VFIAX versus $2.7 million with GFACX. That difference shows it's crucial to know what you're paying and change investments if needed. Trending Now: 'If you are paying higher fees, make sure the returns are justifying the fees,' Singh said. 'Because what we've seen through history is that, in general, high-fee accounts do not outperform the lower cost, lower fee, passively managed accounts when you look at it over the long run.' A report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics identified housing, transportation, food and health care as some of the largest household expenses in 2023. While you might think of cutting back on the less important stuff, Singh recommended targeting the major expenses if you're financially strained. For example, he said you could look for a cheaper place or vehicle and invest the savings. Other options could include splitting costs with a roommate and using alternative transportation, like carpooling or taking the bus. According to Singh, you might save up to $1,000 each month if you're strategic with your cuts. After you've built up wealth, you'll find it more realistic to spend money on fancier things without stress. Increasing your income goes hand in hand with cutting expenses to build wealth more efficiently. Singh explained that even getting your employer to offer a $5,000 raise has a major long-term impact when you look at the compound interest potential. He gave an example of investing your $5,000 raise every year for 30 years and getting a 10% average return, which he said would get you to about $1 million. If you change the timeline to 40 years, you'd reach about $2.4 million. 'This is the power of asking for that raise sooner rather than later and then taking that additional money and putting it to work,' Singh added. Getting yourself into a better financial position requires rethinking how you use your paycheck so that your money goes to work and makes you richer. Singh laid out three steps to take. First, he said you need to track your spending so you know where your pay is going every month. A budgeting app or a simple spreadsheet with your income and expenses will do the job. Singh recommended using categories for expenses, which you can identify from financial statements and noting the money you invested, gave or saved. After that, consider using the 75/15/10 plan to prevent overspending and ensure you're working toward your money goals. Singh explained that this limits your spending to 75% of your earnings and requires investing a minimum of 15% and saving at least 10%. With your plan in place, you can focus on investing as much as possible to build your wealth. That means making smart decisions with any extra money you get as well. 'One common trait that you will find amongst all successful people is that they were willing to take a risk on themselves,' Singh said. For you, this might look like finally getting started with investing, making your business dream a reality or getting a degree that helps you land a higher-paying job you love. It could also be as simple as getting a book that educates you on investing or offers career tips. Singh explained that this kind of risk-taking isn't easy but is worth it, so you should trust yourself and not let failure discourage you. He gave the example of how his parents wanted him to become a doctor from a young age, yet he found different opportunities as an entrepreneur and content creator.
