Chef Val Cantú and his team at Californios in San Francisco have earned a historic third Michelin star, the first for a Mexican restaurant worldwide. This achievement validates the idea that Mexican cuisine can offer an elevated dining experience. Cantú says he and his 40-person staff have been feeling “a little bit more confidence in their step” after the accolade. Cantú co-founded the restaurant after asking himself, “Why is no one doing Mexican cuisine and treating it with like extreme care?” He received his first star when Californios opened in 2015 and the second in 2018. The Michelin Guide praised its innovative approach, blending Mexican culture with California ingredients.
Consumers already feeling pinched since the Iran war started may feel more pain after oil prices pushed past $100 a barrel. The elevated price reached on Thursday marked a turn from falling oil prices when hostilities between the U.S. and Iran waned in June. The last time international standard Brent crude hit $100 a barrel was in May. Companies that produce and sell fresh food, school supplies and anything that gets shipped using fuel reported cost impacts from an earlier spike in energy prices. They’re likely to continue passing some of their increased expenses to consumers.

The Louvre's Apollo gallery is reopening to the public for the first time since last year's crown jewels heist. The museum has removed the collections and precious jewels, returning the gallery to its original ceremonial purpose. Security at the Paris museum has been boosted with new surveillance cameras and anti-intrusion systems. On the day of the heist, thieves took less than eight minutes to steal the 88 million euro trove. Security improvement is a priority of the decade-long “Louvre New Renaissance” plan, launched last year, to modernize infrastructure and ease crowding.
President Donald Trump says Trump Accounts could lift children out of poverty and help more Americans invest in the stock market. But some parents are still waiting for the money. Trump promoted the accounts at a rally in Georgia on Wednesday. Trump Accounts offer $1,000 to every child born during his second term. The accounts went live July 4. They can be opened for any child under 18, with contributions from family and others. The money is invested and can be accessed at 18. Some parents say they were told the money could take weeks to arrive. The Treasury Department says most families wait only one or two days.
