Mate, don't get me started on the quality of food in Hervey Bay. Actually, let's start. Just say that if you have low expectations, you won't be disappointed. As for the restaurant that you mentioned, I agree. This is a French restaurant, and when I dined there I went away thinking that I have better (and cheaper) French food on my menu, and I work at a Chinese cafe! We used to have Grinders "coffee". When that became unpalatable, the owners asked me if I had any suggestions, knowing that I'm a bit of a caffiene nut. Naturally I suggested using a well regarded local roaster. I suggested Pioneer Coffee, having sampled a few blends at home and being impressed. But they had already made up their minds to use Piazzo D'oro, as they are very good friends with the local distributor. Fortunately, the coffee tastes nice if you pack it really tightly. Sometimes the mouses tail turns to slight constipation, but that's the best way to get the most from this brand. If you're in Hervey Bay again, stop in to Simply Wok for breakfast or lunch and say g'day.
