Parkes Phoenix

Our Bloke – Craig Smith

October 13, 2016 By Maggi Barnard

Craig Smith

How long have you lived in Parkes? My wife and I moved to Parkes in March 2004 from Sydney. My father’s company was going to move here when I was 9 but it never eventuated.

What do you enjoy the most about living in Parkes? I enjoy the simplistic lifestyle and a slower pace that goes with it. At times my life can be hectic and it is nice to live in an environment that is peaceful and relaxing.

What do you do for work? I own and operate the Dish Cafe, Dish Catering Co and Dish Foods.

What do you enjoy most about your work? I get bored really easy and need lots of diversity. My work brings that everyday.

What makes your day? Having a problem that needs some thought and solving it. Not always smart enough to solve it myself and often need to rely on one of the many females in my daily life.

How do you like your coffee? I used to drink a lot of coffee – not convinced it was doing me good, so took up tea. Peppermint at work, normal at home.
