Weston cafe torched

Oh no! Where will I get my bacon and egg rolls from now?
Possible cause could be heat from friction. The type of heat you get by rubbing a loan agreement against an insurance policy.

Evidently the presence of wokked noodles negates the quality of being a cafe.
$100K sounds like a fair amount of damage, hope they can get back into their crease soon (They did a pretty good steak sandwich).

So what purpose does your comment serve exactly? Are you attempting to point out ACT Police media don’t understand how to describe a business accurately? Or do u simply feel the need to make erroneous comments to make yourself seem intelligent because you post on an opinions forum?

And hamburgers, steak sandwiches, fish and chips, sandwiches, desserts etc. So yeah, a cafe by most definitions of the word.
A rival noodle bar cum coffee shop perhaps?
Would hardly call AD’s a cafe…. more like a chinese fast food that also serves coffee and cake.
