In the town of Rockhampton, there stood a small cafe named Tiki. It was a modest place, known for its unassuming menu. Yet, the locals spoke of a dish that seemed almost legendary: the perfect potato scallop. One day, a traveler passed through, drawn by tales of the famed scallop. Skeptical of the whispers, he decided to visit Tiki Cafe to judge for himself. As he approached the counter, the old cook behind it smiled knowingly, as if he had seen this scene play out countless times before. The traveler ordered a single scallop, and soon it arrived. He examined it closely, noting its golden, crispy exterior, its round perfection, and the subtle aroma of the sea salt blowing sweetly in the breeze. He took a bite. The potato's battered crust gave way to a tender, warm center that melted on his tongue. In that moment, the traveler was transported—not just to the flavours of this golden potato snack, but to memories of simpler times, of family gatherings, and of the comfort found in the unpretentious. When he finished, the traveler approached the cook and said, “I have tasted many fine dishes in my life, but never something so humble that carried such profound meaning. What is your secret?” The old cook chuckled softly and replied, “There is no secret, friend. The potato is simple, the oil is fresh, and the hands that make it are steady. What you taste is not just food, but the care and patience in its making. The world is full of rich flavors, but sometimes, the simplest things, made with the greatest care, leave the deepest mark.” The traveler nodded, understanding that it was not the scallop itself that was perfect, but the love and attention that went into creating it. He left Rockhampton with a full heart, carrying the lesson that true greatness often lies in the simplest of things, made with care and intention. And in that, he found wisdom to last a lifetime.

Grabbed breakfast from here while I waited for my car service. Had the scrambled eggs and tomatoes with added bacon and sausage, IT WAS AMAZING, yummy and fresh and eggs where nice and fluffy. Had iced chocolate to drink and it was iced cold and yummy too. Amazing food and staff 10/10 so glad I stopped in an definitely be back, think I found my new favourite place although be warned you may need a crane to carry you out.
