POTATO cakes at Mick and Dee Simms’ Pyramid Hill Bakery and Cafe have been given top marks by those in the know.
A random visit from the Potato Cake Appreciation Society last week has seen the store’s cakes score highly on the taste test.
“On this quiet Wednesday arvo a few people darted in and out of the business and I was soon on my way with an oil soaked brown paper bag,” the connoisseur has since told fellow fans.
“These fresh and hot discus chips didn’t look like the average, cheap pre-produced cakes, as a crunchy yet flaky batter bubbled over the surface of the cake.
“Each cake was still slippery with oil, and each bite revealed a single slice of potato in the centre, fresh and fluffy, well cooked and soft. These were generous in size and width, and thickened bubbles of batter added textural extra crunch.
“Not many shops can be a town’s cafe, baker, pizzeria, and fish and chip shop, but these guys are doing a pretty good job.”
The reviewer rated Pyramid Hill’s potato cakes highly at eight out of 10.
