Dax Rourke
✓Bakery ManagerMermaid Waters, Gold Coast, Queensland
Dax owns a Mermaid Beach bakehouse where the first cabinet fill, staff cover and unsold stock matter as much as a good pastry. He talks about freshness and value through the limits of managing a working bakery, then fishes the Broadwater only when his roster and conditions allow. A cancelled launch means lunch near home after the morning production check, not an invitation to issue remote boating advice.
