It’s official “MONDAY is the new SUNDAY!”

Being in business, especially a retail fast food outlet like ours, can be a real balancing act as you to try to achieve a’ work’ (delivering a consistently great service that keeps our customers satisfied) versus ‘life’ balance (for ‘life’ read: ‘time to sleep, recharge and stay connected with family and friends’).

GOOD RIDDANCE 2020! Here’s to a COVID-free 2021 for everyone!

Yes, we’re open Good Friday!

This bloody horrible COVID-19 virus has really chucked a spanner in the works for us this Easter, but we’re determined to keep going: keep supplying our tempting taste treats for our army of supporters out there. We’re certainly not going to let a ‘germ’ get the better of us. However, this year Easter isn’t going to be the same and we’ve had to make some changes to ensure the health & safety of the community as well as our team.

COVID Update: A positive message from our family to yours.

COVID Update: A positive message from our family to yours. 1Hey Everyone,

I wondered if I could ask for a minute of your time. Over recent weeks here in WA our lives, and the health and well-being of our families, has been thrown into turmoil through the threat of the Covid19 virus. We all face the same uncertainty and worry about future developments. But, as a collective, the one positive thing we can all do is be as prepared as we can to meet this looming challenge head-on.

To that end, I have been in discussion with my crew about what we can do, as a company and individuals, to safeguard of our customers and team members by minimizing our risk of exposure to this virus. The high standards of cleanliness we have always maintained in our kitchen, storage and serving areas, has made it easier for us to ramp up our level of awareness and commitment to creating an even more hygienic environment.

Some of the additional steps we have taken include the installation of hand soap dispensers for customers, increased frequency of cleaning of all areas (including wiping down of food preparation and serving stations) as well as re-briefing staff on all mandatory sanitation and hygiene requirements.

These are difficult times for us all, but now, more than ever, it’s vital that small businesses like ours and the community that we serve, work together to support each other.

That being said, if you or anyone you know is struggling in our community – please let us know so that we may be able to offer some sort of assistance and support. An act of kindness costs nothing but gives so much hope in return.

In order to minimize unnecessary contact, can we suggest you consider the following:

 Minimize the exchange of cash by using contactless payment or eftpos.
 Ordering online and pre-pay by card to reduce wait times and exposure in store
 Take advantage of our drive-thru service
Place your order by phone 9255-3099
 Place an order through our UberEats delivery service

Finally, I’d like to thank you for all your support over the years and we hope that everyone takes care during this difficult time.

Stay safe and well,
Rino Saccoccia

How the yanks made a hash of our humble potato scallop

In some states it’s known as a ‘potato scallop’, in others it’s a ‘potato cake’, and for years the debate has been bantered back and forward between protagonists. “It might be a ‘scallop’ of potato but let’s not confuse it with a serve of scallops! That’s a totally different kettle of, well fish.” “How can you call it a ‘cake’ when you don’t bake it, you deep fry it?”

How the yanks made a hash of our humble potato scallop 7Whatever you call it, this humble little potato product has been an Australian fast food favourite and taste-tempting staple for longer than we care to remember. So it was a moment of shock and horror when Capt’n Snappy saw an online article about what the Yanks are doing to our perfect potato scallop or should we say, ‘The Original Australian Battered Potatoes’ as they have been dubbed by our demented American amigos!

While the name itself is a worry, what they are doing to them is enough to make you choke on your Aussie Weeties (god only knows what they might do if they got their hands on our Aussie wheat -based breakfast icon). They are slathering them with ranch dressing. Yes, that’s right. Ranch dressing? Is nothing sacred? But that’s not the end of their sacrilege. They’re adding insult to injury by smothering it with melted cheese and bacon.

Fair suck of the sav Uncle Sam! Yes, we’ve been known to add salt to ours(great flavour enhancer that goes with everything – even ice cream) , vinegar and OK, tomato sauce, but never ketchup.

The Yanks apparently sell them like that at their State Fairs, which we think is a totally un-fair way to treat our little tatty morsel. And they apparently can’t get enough of them. They’re disappearing from the fair booths faster than an Eagles supporter walking through Fremantle! Guess there is no accounting for taste.

We know the big production number Yanks make about their hot dogs and that’s OK, because they invented them, along with baseball, that game that’s sort of like cricket without the ‘dah-dat-da-dah’ organ music and ‘Take me out to the ball game’ singing, but why did they have to focus their dastardly dietary habits on one of our all-time favourite snacks?

Couldn’t they have just left it as it is? They’ve insulted our fish n chips, saying that they reduce the effects of the flu vaccine. Haven’t they done enough damage? C’mon America, we don’t try and mess with your Ribs or interfere with your Mum’s homemade apple pie, so please, take a step back, move away from the potato scallops, or cakes, and turn your talents  to stuffing up all things  Italian, or better still, focus on those fullas across the ditch,  we hear they do some strange things involving lamb!

The good oil on our Fish ‘n Chips

The good oil on our Fish 'n Chips 11Cap’n Snappy doesn’t get ‘snappy’ too often but when someone maligns the yummy fish ‘n chips that All Aboard has served up to happy customers for over 20 years, his gets his scales up and goes into fighting mode.

Apparently, some bunch of Yanks at a big-name US university who get grants at the drop of a hat to investigate the effect of Donald Trump’s yellow wig on nesting albino albatrosses, undertook a study on the effects of fish ‘n chips on the flu vaccine. Of course, makes sense doesn’t it? Yanks studying fish ‘n chips – a meal they know as much about as the rules of our footy!

Apparently, these so-called scientists have come up with a finding that the additive used in the making of an Aussie food icon may hinder trhe effectiveness of flu vaccines. The study was conducted on rats and mice, mind you. While no humans were apparently harmed in the undertaking of the experiment, you have to wonder where on earth the idea for this study originated and what sort of imbecile decided it would be a good idea!

Just to set the record straight, at All Aboard Seafoods, Cap’n Snappy and his crew only use premium high-oleic canola vegetable oil in our cooking. It’s high in mono-unsaturated fats, low in saturated ‘bad’ fats and is made from premium canola seeds. The oil in our cookers is recycled weekly with the old oil disposed of responsibly through Auscol, a specialist in environmental recycling of waste oil and other products.

Are you getting the picture? One of the few remaining special Friday night and weekend treats Perth families still get to enjoy is being besmirched by a half-baked study by a bunch of individuals who should maybe stick to testing hot dogs before they start sticking their noses into an Aussie staple.

Now we are not saying you should eat fish ‘n chips every night, but as a treat everyone knows you can’t beat the eager anticipation of the unmistakable smell and taste, when Mum or Dad say, “let’s have fish ‘n chips tonight”.

So, we would like to ask you why you love fish ‘n chips and more importantly, what you love about the fish ‘n chips you get from Cap’n Snappy and his crew at All Aboard Seafood? The best response will receive a family feast of our yummy fish ‘n chips.

Oh, and could we suggest that the boffins at Michigan State University stick to what they know and perhaps commission a study on why scientists, with too much time on their hands, undertake mindless rats and mice studies that nobody takes seriously or would ever consider giving up their favourite Friday night for.
