Well, to anyone who is interested in going down F&B line, please bear in mind is a hell of a job.
You have to prepare for long hours, insufficient rest and sleep, no REAL off days (If you are the boss, then you better be there, can't expect the ship to sail without its captain!), sleepless nights, tired feet and hands etc.
If you are prepared for the stress on your body and mind, then please prepare at least RM200,000 at THE MINIMUM for a small cafe.
Even if you don't do much renovation, you need money and cashflow to sustain you for at least 3 to 6 months.
If you are thinking opening up a cafe or restaurant just because you want to be your boss, forget it. You have to be the best EMPLOYEE in your restaurant.
You are the first one to arrive in the morning, the last one to leave.
You should be the first one to calm down a complaining guest, the person they will blame on the most for their bad experience.
Overall, owning a restaurant is no joke, only if you had to passion to service you can last.
Opening cafe or kopitiam, any experience?
