S3 | Episode 113 | 19th November | All your favourites + Brad Fyfe from Solunar

Everyone wanted to have a say, and for someone who used to be quite hesitant to come in for a chat in front of a microphone, Ben Rogers from Pioneer Ford certainly doesn't take much convincing now. As soon as he found out we were in the studio on Wednesday this week he was straight over the road from the dealership to for a quick spot to send a shout out. Don't get me wrong, we love having Ben on, especially when Charlie is here because I have a team mate. It's just funny how quickly one develops confidence in front of the microphone with a bit of practise. Brad Fyfe from Solunar is our Mildura Living Weekly feature this week and I'm so thrilled he is. I LOVE his food. Now if you you haven’t heard of Solunar, don’t worry, I hadn’t either, until Toni brought dumplings and the Yunnan salad in for a lunch a few weeks ago. So when Toni mentioned that Brad was coming in I was obviously excited for the research that had to be conducted! I like to go into these conversations well prepared and nothing says "prep" with a chef than eating lots of his food! Since this conversation I have been into Solunar the man who owns the show is running the show. Today Brad was behind the counter so I got the full tour of the facility and met the staff. When meeting all of their smiling happy faces I asked if he was struggling to find staff, and pleasantly he said not really. Rather than advertise actual positions, he advertises for good people and hence, he has the team he has now. The food was also incredible. I rate my food by level of profanity that comes out of my mouth after the first bite, and let me tell you that this was not suitable for a family show such as this and I am lucky I was alone at the time.
