Death of our inventions
Cheese Pork
Chocobo Egg
and our copycat items
Batter Fish
Breaded Fish
Chicken Cutlet
Pork Cutlet
basically, anything which goes into boiling oil in case I left out any.
Goodbye and it was fun while it lasts.
The rusty brain is creaking for legit items to replace these... suggestions welcome

More good (bad) news.
After a meeting with the school folks...
For us, it's still business as usual.
Obviously we have to revamp the menu, so we seek your kind understanding during the transition period, it is really difficult to get things changed within a short period of time because we are mass producing and not cooking for a small family.
So hope you guys and gals will be able to accept the healthier options as we roll them out slowly alright?
It's good (bad) news, depending how you look at it.No, we are not supposed to fry anything on anyday anymore.
Period.

Might as well...
The school wants nothing 'fried' on the menu on everyMon, Wed, Fri. The boss (drinks stall) feels the pressure and relay the message. Of course we too feel the pressure now and for everyone's sake:
School: Happy the stalls comply with standards
Boss: Happy that school doesn't give him pressure
Students: Health will improve, supposedly
Us: Ok, if we please everyone, we ought to feel happy too right?

Change of menu, soon
School complained we are 'frying too much'
So some items of this nature will be taken out on certain days, the similar way it was to dyfunctional items like french fries and popcorn chicks.
In the meantime, help us by giving suggestions what 'non fried' items we can add to the menu?

The usual quantity is around 30.
Hope it will be sold out, don't want to bring any home.

Blog url
The blog url written on the glass front of the stall has been mischieviously wiped off.
Haha.
I wondered what happened. Any clues for us?
Too lazy to write it back though

Pop Corn Chicken - The Banned
It was crazy.
The demand was definitely more than what we can possibly supply.
Unless we buy a meat cutting machine.
Back then, the canteen lease was up for tender. We weren't sure if we would be around the following year. If a new operator won the bid then, we might or might not be able to continue our operation. With all the uncertainties back then, investing in a machine was probably the last thing on our minds.
So, it was down to hardcore manual meat slicing. We prepared the popcorn chicken by tubs (those blue Bestfood tubs). We prefered to use chicken drumstick meat rather than chicken breast.
Bad mistake.
Chicken drumstick meat was a lot more 'slippery' and difficult to cut, especially the skin. Well, it took a fast hand about 30 mins to fill 1 tub and an average helping hand 1 hour to do the same. To fill half a dozen of those requires about 3 -6 hours (depending who does it) of pure meat cutting after 'office hours'
All 6 tubs would typically be sold in 1 hour with angry customers yelling for more. Not that we were unhappy with good business, we were at a loss of what to do to meet the demands.
Unluckily for us, (and maybe the customers) this item was soon banned from the menu. Personally I am not sure what happened, but it probably doesn't matter.
If it is disallowed, it is disallowed. Case closed but it was fun while it lasts. Hope you guys and girls enjoyed it.
