Spag bol & salad.
Ever since tropfest (used to go every year many many moons ago) I’ve always wanted to check out Tropicana Caffe, last night I finally did! I wasn’t expecting anything special (which was part of the fun of it), ordering off a lightbox was interesting, and having lots of big TV’s play music videos made me feel like I was in a 24hr restaurant at 3am in the morning.
Cutlery came in pre-packaged paper bags which then made me feel like I was in an airport lounge. Looking around at the other patrons I spotted lots of older ladies sporting arty frizzy hairstyles and thick frames glasses.
Lighting inside the cafe was an off-putting blue due tot he fluorescent tubes used in the kitchen, but people watching both inside and out was fun and the meal was reliable and un-pretentious. Loved it :)
