Thanks to dear Brothers here ! Thanks everyone ! The new shop is at the new Driving Range (under renovation now) at Orchid Country Club @ Yishun . My new Boss is a customer whom i had served before & he wanted to open a Restaurant for his Retirement plan ba ... ? This new Restaurant is undergoing a 5 Star Fine Dining Renovation & business operation is expected to start around May 2009 . Now the contractors are tearing down the whole 'old' shop & doing the new one . For the time being i almost go KO every time i go sleep & hardly can wake up because the day time i have to be busy with the planning of menu , doing research about the Japanese Food Market now , meetings with my good partner who is the Big Head there on Equipments Layout & Manpower etc ... While still have to go on driving from the evening till late night ... Because after all , i am still a Taxi driver now & the contract with the company is not finished yet . The Car Rental still have to pay everyday ... Though the new shop supported me a bit of the car rental money , but they did not support my energy la ... But it will be over soon ... Though i will loose a bit of money for the rental & lesser income till i return the Taxi , i have to reserve my energy & spirit level high for my upcoming 'Career' . >>> Hi kelvin81 , i believed i am the only Taxi Driver here using Alpha & since its Galdor who spoke of me , that must be me already ! Can see a few photos of the OCC Pano Landscape at my Pano-Ming Section . A Good place for Landscape & i realised that there are many creepy crawlies too ! |

Sounds good ? Its just a paid job but its far better than the previous ones . Setting up is usually one of the difficult part , especially from a shop that need to start from scratch & basically nothing else can be used ... Have to plan the bits & pieces carefully before the operation starts , then come the most difficult moments ... How to bring in customers & boost the sales , otherwise , no matter how good i am or the team is , without good business , its all no use ...The Team have no 'Share' from the shop & i am just overall looking after the kitchen & helping out my Head above . Work is just work & always doing my best for everything , only worry about those 'Black & Dark Sides' of other people from around me whom had backstabbed me so much before ... Hopefully they had turned over a new leaf & only work hard for their Boss , and don't disturb me . Here , i will be able to present my own cuisine , my style , my taste , my way ... For what i had learnt over the years , this is the time i can prove to my Masters & the Market , my 'Mugen Ryori' !
