One of my favorite places in YSW!

It's open from something like 6am till around 7pm, selling way over 50 sandwich/drink sets in the morning, being the main breakfast/lunch provider to our office workers, together with Green Cottage...

Great juices, hot dogs, baked potatoes with any topping, but also salads. My current lunch favorites:
Tuna Fish Croissant and Cream Cheese Blueberry Bagel!

Cheapest fruits ($2) & soft drinks ($5) of any restaurant I know; and very friendly, professional service from hotel-trained Ah-Can.

Great people-watching at this cross-section of main Street and Back Street, when sitting inside. See my "Watching Lamma Passing By..." story.

Below are a few ad posters I created for their displays recently, just as a little friendly favor:

Whenever I walk pass that road, I always stop by for a Mango-Coconut milk drink for $15. And to go with a $8 saliva-teasing-as-French-kiss-beef-satay from the opposite shop. The toll adds up to $23, pretty expensive walk for this humble dog. Can somebody advise how I can walk to the beach from the main road without using that road leading to Pizza Milano? Appreciate!

Tropicana must be the best spot to watch pretty ladies in the morning!

Amazing fact, confirmed by Ah-Can in Tropicana:
About 85% of his very numerous customers in the morning (6-8:30am) are FEMALE!.

They're picking up one of the about 15 types of sandwiches & coffee/tea/fruit juice ($20), power-dressed and in a hurry on their way to the ferry to the office.

MOST of the customers are not Chinese, but many other Western & Asian nationalities.
Many of them are very pretty, and Ah-Can has his ways of making them smile...
(I'm allowed to watch, as Lamma-Po is watching with me occasionally during breakfast. Ah-Can was thinking of charging us admission...)

I wonder why, but you can see it for yourself. Often there are 5-10 female customers in a row.

And in Aroy Thai most of the customers are male, often served by a Thai woman...
:lol:

let's see if ah-can goes on leave for a couple of days and the lovely mrs ah-can takes over, will the demography of their patrons change? perhaps then, lamma-po would be there every morning?

I've found out what's really attracting so many people to Tropicana!

It's Barney, the cute, caramel-colored dog with the droopy eyes and kid-friendly manner! So many people cannot walk by without greeting and petting him, it seems. It's really amazing! If I'd be THAT popular...

It's not even Ah-Can's dog, he belongs to Golding of the former Golding bathroom appliances shop, now home to Emily's Ice-cream Parlor.

The only fee he charges for attracting the crowds and being the mascot of Tropicana is an occasional snack!

I just found the best-value, sweetest fruit salad in the village:

Besides the fresh fruit juice, the sandwiches in the morning are also bloody well made. Nice job ah Can!
