sunday brunch again!!!

I have gone from cooking 3 times a week to cooking at B bakery now every night except Mondays - when we rest n Sundays - Brunch.
From 50 dollar set dinners to now an entire ala carte menu.
From importing french produce to now shopping at tekka market every other mornings.
From no sandwiches to sandwiches
From no pastas to now I have 5 pasta items in my current menu
From table settings to now, no settings....
Think I have tried almost anything n everything there is to try except lower down our prices which means lowering our quality of ingredients.
Still n this is not a cry for help....there r no customers....iamartisan......gosh...the other day, a fren stopped by n in the mist of our conversation, she/he said...I support local artist...what does that mean? I'm still wondering when any of our local stars will ever make it international.  My Dad's quite familiar with the local art scene. just the other day we were have our min chat, huffing n puffing away on our cigarettes...
He said there are so many talented artist that have been n are still struggling to make ends meet. Most of them quietly painting away in the silence of their home studio...I'm not comparing myself to a true blue artist...But just to give u another example of a case n point situation....
3 customers came in...they asked for the tom yam pasta that B bakery serves for their lunch customers...they asked if I could make them the same pasta...I couldn't, first.. I didn't want to , n second, I didn't know where the mis en plus was anyway.... They left...they came back anyways later...I went out to chat with them...they said they came back for the coffee..heartbreaker...not really though, cus the coffee there really is second to none...I asked them , what they liked for dinner....we talked n talked n talked about comfort food type meals...about hearty soups n stews....n then they talked about where they like to visit....BANGKOK!!!
CAN THE REAL SLIM SHADY PLEASE STANDUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean you dont walk into a gallery or art studio....look at a piece in watercolor n go ...can u do the same for me but in crayons!!!!!
CAN THE REAL SLIM SHADY PLEASE STANDUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where's the respect n appreciation for what the individual is trying to do here???

Thats what kills the cat!!
