Rise Against Pancake Queen.

So I wrote this while on University holidays when my friends and I went away for a bit, and I only just found it again! It was my practise for Journalism.

Rise Against Pancake Queen:

Customers unhappy with the wait times at local pancake chain have decided to take on the Pancake Queen at her own game. Starting a nearby all day breakfast diner.

“The Two Hour Wait for breakfast was just ridiculous.” Claimed one unhappy customer, storming out of the Pancake Queen with small children in tow.

“Pancake Paradise was opened because we wanted to feed people with good healthy food so they could have the best possible start to their day without the hassle of waiting for long periods of time.” The Primary investor spoke anonymously to us within their own restaurant, a coffee clutched between her hands.

“I wish Pancake Paradise all the best with what they are trying to do, but there is a reason we are called the Pancake Queen. We have loyal customers who know we are the best, which is why the wait times are slowly getting longer. Good quality takes time, and we’re very thankful for those who understand this concept.” The Pancake Queen herself said, inviting us behind the scenes where chefs manned multiple stoves each, pancakes flipping through the air every few seconds. Plates laden disappearing out the doors as soon as they were loaded.

“Right now we have just started this venture, I would like to let our results speak for themselves.” The Owner of Pancake Paradise, Phillip Jones, spared only a second to talk to us, between taking orders and running plates out.

Judging by the large sign in the window of Pancake Paradise that the start-up company was still searching for waitstaff. It is off to a promising start, only time will tell if it can hold up against Pancake Queen.

Pancake Paradise is open from 6am until 4pm, with both indoor and outdoor seating. A wide variety of drinks and breakfasts are available. Pancake Paradise can be found at 125 Mokoia Road.

Pancake Queen is open from 6am until noon. They only offer Pancakes, and these are available for takeaway or eat in. Located at 65 Apple Tree Lane.

Note: This story is a gross exaggeration of events that took place while I was on holiday. Both these places to not exist, therefore, please do not try to visit them. In the defence of Pancake Queen, she was unsure of how to work the stove top in the place we were staying.
