Restaurant news:
Part 1
ASTV:When did you come to Canada? Would you please tell us how you felt about Canada at the beginning?
Owner: I came to Canada in 2006 all alone, and I felt so strange in the city as I couldn’t speak fluent English. It was hard for me to fit in.
Part 2
ASTV:When did you start your business? What was the greatest challenge when you tried to start your business? And how did you overcome it? Please brief to us how you managed to start the restaurant.
Owner: I started to work as a chef in a restaurant in 2006, and I used to run a sushi bar. But I didn’t have a real restaurant of my own until 2010.
The greatest challenge I met must be that I was never engaged in management before and I was not experienced enough, so I didn’t do so well in many aspects. That’s what I found most demanding. However, I managed to seek my own experience as I tried to run the restaurant, thus overcome my fear of the future.
Part 3
ASTV:When did the restaurant start business? Why do you think you can succeed today? What’s the key to your success? And what’s most special about your restaurant?
Owner:My restaurant started in 2010, and I think what’s most special about it is that I always try my best to serve pleasant dishes to my customers.
Part 4
ASTV:The rise of commodity price and labor leads to higher cost of running a restaurant. How would you handle such a situation?
Owner:I would try my best to reduce unnecessary wastes and save costs.
Part 5
ASTV:Many successful entrepreneurs will choose to conduct philanthropy, like offering donations to some hospitals and schools. What do you think of this?
Owner:I don’t conduct philanthropy regularly, but whenever someone needs help, I’ll do whatever I can.
Part 6
ASTV:Congratulations again to you and your restaurant for winning the honor of “the Best Asian Food in Canada 2013”. How do you feel about it?
Owner:Thanks for your support to my restaurant. We’ll keep working and improving, satisfying more customers.
