Lama menyepi tak update blog ni but a lot has happened. Alhamdullillah tempahan kuih muih dan hidangan makanan kami menerima banyak sambutan dan many a times we have to wake up at 4.00am in the morning just to complete the orders on time. Kita terima tempahan Lopis yang banyak untuk jamuan, kuih Puteri tak payah cakaplah, banyak sampai kadang-kadang saya tak larat nak menghantarnya. Our Soto is a hit and orders kept coming even on weekdays. Kalau weekends memanglah banyak. We buy spaghetti by hundred packs for Laksa, so too nasi empit. Our problem now is not orders but production. It simply cannot cope with the demand. I know I must do something but I have come to realize that reliable manpower is in acute shortage. Every industry is faced with this problem. To move forward we have to overcome this problem, which it is right now. Wish we have robots to handle the manual labour.
Having a spot at Tesco, Mutiara Damansara have to be put on hold for the time being. The location that was offered us is unsuitable for F & B business. We cannot be together with carpet sellers and clothing vendors. I don't want the food to be contaminated by flying dust, micro fiber and what else. Even if the food is protected in plastic containers and display counters I simply don't feel good doing it. Carrefour Kota Damansara is still being renovated. They have moved their launch forward again and I have no clear indication as to when the F & B kiosk will be open. We wanted the food court which will allow us to move in immediately but again the operator is telling us what we can sell and what we can't sell in order to protect the existing vendors. Every which way we turn we are being obstructed with one thing or the other. It upsets me but I am dead set in locating our first kiosk in a shopping or hypermarket area. Oh yes....budget is a major constraint too.
We shall overcome, how....I really don't know. Insyallah! If you are reading this post and you feel like giving our kuih, pastries, hidangan and cookies a try, please don't be put off by this post. We would love doing it for you anytime any day......so call us ok. The numbers are 012-2986595 Mustapha, 013-2047262 Salmah.
