    It’s 5am in Hanoi’s Long Bien market. A boy sits in front of his mother on a motorbike, his sleepy head resting on a pillow folded over the handlebars. They’re puttering at walking pace through the sporadically neon-lit perimeter road of this all-night wholesale market, straining bags of plucked chickens evenly distributed on either side of the back wheel. Nearby, a woman sits surrounded by a three-sided wall of pineapples, a perfectly groomed Pomeranian sitting pertly at her feet. There are hug

    It would be hard to overstate the importance of Shark Fin Inn to Melbourne. The double-storey Cantonese institution has been a consistent drawcard up the top of Little Bourke Street since 1982, its red frontage and octagonal windows gleaming with the promise of prawn dumplings. Hong Kong-born owner Gabriel Chan, now 66, has been here from the beginning, joined in 1989 by his siblings Martin and Vanessa. Many staff members have been here for decades too, in some cases looking after the great-gran

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    As homemade snacks and easy meals go, there aren’t many that beat nachos.

So what are the nachos basics and are there any hacks or rules? They were invented in the northern Mexico town of Piedras Negras in 1943 by a waiter called Ignacio “Nacho” Anaya. A gaggle of US Army wives descended on his restaurant before the chef a

    The crew behind Daylesford’s much-loved food store and bottle shop Winespeake Cellar & Deli have opened Leggatt St Wine Bar, an all-day indoor-outdoor spot overlooking Lake Daylesford. “It’s a place for people who enjoy thoughtful produce and wines, like we do at Winespeake,” says owner Jen Latta. “We’re bringing that energy to the lake.” The menu is snacky, with wood-fired focaccia, gildas, cheese platters and mortadella skewers with fior di latte and pesto. There’s also pâté (duck but also b

    ‘I’m very emotional’: Good Food great Roslyn Grundy reflects on 34 years of restaurants and recipes (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    It’s Roslyn Grundy’s last day at work, and we’re having lunch to mark the occasion. The veteran editor is clearly not yet off duty. “We should order something green,” she says, looking over the menu at Roma, one of Melbourne’s hottest openings for 2026. “If everything’s too brown, it will be a boring photo.” She’s right, of course, her commitment to the best possible story persisting until the cusp of retirement. After 37 years with The Age, many of them also with The Sydney Morning Herald and t
