Las Vegas native and current Gosport, Indiana, resident Roc Anthony Bates Sr. does all three and has cemented his success in a second career.

This Indiana Cafe Makes Breakfast All Day, Because Nobody Should Have to Wait for Pancakes

One of the most famous features at this little cafe is a cast iron bathtub turned into a fish tank. It once landed on a Travel Channel list of top ten bathrooms. That alone would earn a visit from me. But the place also roasts its own coffee and has done so for nearly 50 years.
