Coal Loader Cafe

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was a breezing Sunday and the sun was a gigatonne of shining gold. My family and I were heading towards the Coal Loader Cafe after our recent endeavor at the Coal Loader: a peaceful area encompassed by cuddly cute plants and an equally great space for scooter rides. This paradise is also home to a naval base, HMAS Waterhen.

It was a hustling, buzzy lunchtime in the cafe: there was only one table available! An interesting sign was nailed to the cafe labeling the most sustainable ways of transportation from coal based to walking. My eyes were affixed to the sign until I sat down. After ordering our meal, I noticed a hand painting which strongly elicited John Russell’s The Rough Sea. Perhaps the shop owner is engaged, fascinated, and compelled by Russell’s work?

Shortly after, our chicken and chips came. “These chips are better than McDonald's!" Said Jeein after he took a nibble out of his small chip. After a few chips were slowly and painfully nibbled by my brothers, a series of Snort snort and grunt grunt echoed in my eardrums. "Get off of me!" Said Jeein. "Wait, I'm not even doing anything." "That's my most delicate and exquisite chip!" What followed were threatening snarls displayed on my brothers face. My brothers were always pranking on each other.

The cafe owner was nearby and noticed my little brothers. I believe the owner thought he could maybe help my brothers finish their meal satisfactorily. Therefore, the cafe owner said in a very eloquent voice as if he were Alexander Hamilton to my brothers, “If you are unable to finish your meal, working in the kitchen is inevitable and kitchen is very hot!” When he used his hand to mimic a fan, my brothers started to gobble up their food in a supersonic fashion. Their plates were polished clean one by one. The owner was my brother's hero. He also resembled an anime character as he had twinkling and round eyes. The owner also gave my brothers and I reward cookies after digesting our meal.

Thus, dear parents, if you have kids who usually pick at their food, I highly recommend you go to the Coal Loader Cafe as the cafe owner will work his magic on your kids. I’d also like to thank the cafe owner for the generosity and kindness bestowed to my brothers and I. Thank you for embellishing my day!
