We’re very sorry that we haven’t been able to reply to everyone’s comments and questions in a timely manner. At the moment, almost all of my time is being spent making potato cakes — every day I’m peeling potatoes, slicing potatoes, and preparing them for you!

First of all, as far as we know, we haven’t come across any local potato farmers growing potatoes in Drysdale. In the past five years, we also haven’t had any local potato growers come to us to introduce or sell their potatoes.

If you know of any local potato farmers in the Drysdale area, please let us know and recommend them to us. We would absolutely love to support and work with local businesses whenever we can.

Secondly, we can accept pre-orders for small batches of freshly cut chips. However, the price will be a little higher, and we can only offer one size — Small Chips.

Personally, I also feel that fresh potato chips don’t have quite the same texture and consistency as frozen chips, which is why we continue to put so much effort into finding and preparing the best potatoes for our customers.

Finally, thank you so much to everyone for your support, patience and understanding. We really appreciate it! ❤️

We’re very excited to have found an amazing potato farm, Yeoview Potatoes, near Colac.

It’s quite a drive from Geelong, but honestly, it’s well worth the trip. 🥔

Dan from Yeoview Potatoes is a fantastic farmer. He took the time to show me around his warehouse, his large-scale planting and harvesting machinery, and explained the different varieties of potatoes, their characteristics, and what makes each one special.

It was great to see firsthand how much knowledge, experience and passion goes into growing quality potatoes.

We’re really looking forward to working with Yeoview Potatoes and bringing their beautiful Australian-grown potatoes to our customers. We hope this partnership will help us deliver the best possible taste and quality, and give our customers an even better experience with every bite.

Great potatoes start with great farmers. 🌱🥔
Thank you, Dan and Yeoview Potatoes!

Does anyone know these kids? They did such an amazing job! 👏

I’d love to give them a big round of applause and present them with our Best High Kick Award! 🏆

I really hope their parents can bring them into our shop so we can give them their little award in person.

Wishing these wonderful kids lots of fun, happiness, and laughter!

The seafood market has become increasingly confusing in recent years. Nowadays, many different shark species are sold under the name “gummy”, including products labelled as South African Gummy, Indonesian Gummy, and many others. However, true Australian Gummy Shark is native to Australian waters.

Unfortunately, it is very common for fish and chip shop owners to purchase shark products at “gummy” prices, only to discover that they are not actually receiving genuine Australian Gummy Shark. We genuinely feel sorry for businesses that have unknowingly paid premium prices for an inferior product.

On the other hand, some businesses knowingly buy much cheaper non-gummy shark, yet continue to advertise it as “gummy” to earn much higher profits without taking any responsibility. Because the seafood wholesalers’ invoices are often labelled simply as “gummy”, it becomes very difficult for customers to know the difference.

So if you’ve ever eaten “gummy” somewhere and felt that it didn’t taste like real gummy shark, don’t doubt your own palate—it may very well not have been genuine gummy at all. Just look at the price shown in the photo. At that cost, it simply isn’t possible for it to be authentic Australian Gummy Shark.

At our shop, we have chosen Talley’s School Shark from New Zealand instead. We specifically select the smallest legally and sustainably caught fish because they provide a delicate, tender texture that is remarkably close to genuine Australian Gummy Shark. They are also exceptionally fresh, as they are caught and processed during the fishing season.

Although this premium product is not inexpensive, we have built a strong relationship with our supplier. By purchasing in large volumes, we are able to reduce our costs and pass those savings directly on to our local community—without compromising on quality, freshness, or honesty.

We are a small family-owned business trying our best to serve our local community. With rising rent, increasing food costs, and higher operating expenses, every order matters to us. We kindly ask customers not to place orders and then fail to collect them, or make false complaints or abusive comments in an attempt to receive free food. These actions have a real impact on our small business and the families who depend on it.

To keep our prices affordable while maintaining the quality that our customers expect, we have to carefully manage our stock, minimise food waste, and keep staffing costs as low as possible.

Unlike some larger fish and chip shops that can afford to employ multiple full-time staff, operate seven days a week, and have recently sold for around half a million dollars, we simply don’t have those resources. One reason they can do that is because they charge significantly more—for example, around $12 for a single piece of fish.

We have chosen a different path: offering good quality food at fair prices for our community. We sincerely appreciate the support, understanding, and kindness of our loyal customers. Your support allows small family businesses like ours to continue serving the community, while also creating valuable job opportunities for local young people. Every order you place helps us keep local jobs, support local families, and give young people in our community a chance to gain work experience and develop important life skills.

Thank you for supporting local.
