Living the dream ………………..

I don’t often write on this blog, mainly now because there are others I do write on and for, but I suppose I need to just put some fingers to keys and say there is a new blog,  adventures of a restaurateur in the far east. To steal from the blog….

I have been retired for some time and life got well a tad boring (travelling to far flung places around the world every month), so I hatched a plan in late 2010 to realize a dream, have a restaurant. Now the really funny thing is I used to be an engineer and could not spell engineer , of course I can now with the help of F7. I now also realize I can not spell restaurant (with out the help of F7), I think this may well be an expensive way of learning how to spell that word!

Anyway yes I have entered in to the mad world of cooking, counting peas and costing them, most of my staff can not speak a word of English, my Chinese …. Oh, I forgot to mention, yes I like a challenge, so my choice was to go to some place where they don’t speak English and employ local people that have not been out of the country,  to cook …. wait for it ….. western food,  from countries I have never lived in … barking?, yes I am … but I am living the dream ….  so this is my way of sharing experience, sit back , have your morning coffee and see life can be great, if you just look at it from the correct perspective.
