Who wants to be a Millionaire made its British TV debut 26 years ago today, and none of us have won it yet. Anyway, let’s get into it.

The Headlines

• Posh crumpets and levelled-up scotch eggs are on offer at Melbourne’s newest opening. Reed House, owned by ex-Ottolenghi chefs, brings British classics to the streets of Melbourne.

• If you find yourself awake at 3a.m. tomorrow morning, watch Aussie Alex de Minaur take on British heart-throb Jack Draper in the quarter-finals of the US Open. Our money’s on Jack.

• And finally, just a little warning: there is Christmas stuff in Big W already.

Where to Eat

With a backpacker budget friendly Wednesday night offer, $35 can get you gnocchi, wine and live jazz at Rossi in Prahran. It has a sexy interior, a divine drinks menu and tiramisu served table side.

If gnocchi isn’t tickling your tastebuds, they also host Aperitivo Hour every day from 12-6 with $9 cocktails.

Where to Work

Moondog Brewing is searching for a new cohort of all-rounders. The start date is in a few weeks, so you can enjoy the last of the wind and start working five days a week when the sun arrives. Key requirements include good chat and the ability to sling froths at the bar, so make of that what you will.

Where to Live

If you’re currently stuck in hostels and need to escape asap, this Fitzroy townhouse could be the one. There’s a garage space if you need somewhere to park your ute and a weekly communal clean to look forward to. Core selling point: the neat backyard corner, whatever that means.

Where to Go

St Kilda’s Open House Party is sounding a lot like a freshers’ event but actually looks quite good. Free entry, $5 drinks, DJs till 3 and self-proclaimed ‘cheap thrills’. Register here for a free drink on arrival.
