A Victorian institution has made the shock announcement that it's closing its doors later this week. The original La Porchetta has been serving up pizza and pasta since 1985, but the family behind it all says it's made a bittersweet decision to move on. @NathanJCurrie #9News

Got to chat to Kouta for this story 🤩 theage.com.au/goodfood/tips-…

@SzelingGood I'll be there too!

@SzelingGood DMd!

@SzelingGood You're in Brisbane?

@SzelingGood Yep 👍

St Kilda restaurant Donovans is changing owners for the first time since it opened in 1997. On August 31, founders Gail & Kevin Donovan will hand over the beachfront business to their “adopted son” Nick Parkhouse, the restaurant’s general manager. theage.com.au/goodfood/melbo…

@carlofsweden Good point!

New decorations for the restaurant

I read @Eater constantly, so I'm thrilled to have written my 1st story for the site. It's a mega-sized article, too, covering '38 Essential Sydney Restaurants'! The city's food scene is so incredibly diverse – there is so much more to it than avocado toast eater.com/maps/best-rest…

Come join me in a conversation preview of Rachel's Farm, the hopeful new film from Rachel Ward about climate change and regenerative farming. I'm moderating a chat with Rachel, @joostbakk, @Mon4Kooyong & Maree Lowes @MadmanFilms madman.com.au/rachels-farm/
