As much as I try to isolate myself both literally and figuratively to mirror the likes of the Caped Crusader, I noticed that the Batman is never truly alone. He always had help, regardless whether it was Alfred, Robin, the Justice League or even the Joker. Batman is never alone. This section is dedicated to the many members of my Bat-Family, who are near and dear to me in my pursuit for greater knowledge through this project. First, to my parents, Mummy and Daddy, I love you. Thank you for consoling me during my defeats and successes and loving me unconditionally 9500 miles away. To my kor (brother), Jet, sometimes I think you should be here pursuing the graduate degree instead of me. Thank you for your colorful ideas that more often than not, spark and ignite my writing and thinking. To my graduate mentors, Dr. Li Miao, Dr. Ben Goh and Chef Tiffany Poe, I am blessed to have the opportunity to learn from the best and work with the best.

Lock in client loyalty. Remember, you aren’t the only one facing economic hard times. What can you do to serve your best clients? Call and ask! 2. Make time for Face Time. It’s easy to slip into the habit of staying in the kitchen and doing business by phone and email. Visit the front of the house and visit with guests. Listen for opportunities where you can offer a solution for their problems. 3. See a Need and Fill It. When global economies are hurting, sometimes luxuries are the first to go. However, if there’s a need, there’s usually money to pay for a solution. Can you create products or add-on items that fill a need? 4. Create package options. In hearty economic times, there’s more to go around. When companies face downturns, slashing expenses is one of the first things companies do. To stand out from others, create package deals that offer lots of value-add for the dollar. This way you will stand out as a good deal. 5. Do more for less. The financial news is grim, but there are opportunities We aren’t talking about giving away the farm. We are talking for those in foodservice that keep their eye on the prize about doing just slightly more for the same amount.
