A new Japanese food truck called Tomari Sachi has set up in Queanbeyan, parked at New Planet Supermarket in West Queanbeyan. The truck is run by Zilla Tam and Eddie Cho, who are best known for their McKellar restaurant Raijin. Raijin closed on short notice after its ageing building was deemed no longer up to code, and the owners plan renovations. The menu offers karaage chicken, takoyaki, ramen, Japanese curry and Japanese ice creams. The truck is open Monday to Friday from 5 pm to 9 pm, with Saturday lunch from 11 am and dinner from 5 pm.
The City of Wanneroo's Food Truck Program is back, with food truck events planned at seven locations from Girrawheen in the south to Two Rocks in the north. The family-friendly evenings run from 4.30pm or 5.00pm, depending on the location, and feature a range of cuisines. Events are held fortnightly or monthly, and menus may vary between events. Event details, including dates and coordinators, are listed for each park.
The team behind Fav Cup Cafe has opened Fav Bowls, a chicken-centric Thai street food shop in Canberra. The two venues share a kitchen, with Fav Bowls facing the central courtyard of Hobart Place. Co-owners Wilairak Wutthiudomlert, Piyada Siribunchakit and Praewpitcha Chinsamai, all from Thailand, built the menu around chicken. Dishes include chicken pad Thai, massaman curry and shredded chicken noodles. The shop is open from 11 am to 9 pm, Monday to Friday.

A fire has destroyed the Marche Couvert des Enfants Rouges, Paris's oldest covered food market, in the Marais district. Emergency services brought the blaze under control after it was first reported around 3am on Monday. The metal structure partially collapsed, and officials said nothing remains of the market. Neighbouring buildings were not affected. The market, which dates from 1615 and was listed as a historical monument in 1982, may be given a new life elsewhere in Paris. Authorities say temporary locations will be found for its businesses, and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
