  • Introduction
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION This study has been conducted at three Malay restaurants in Malaysia to investigate how restaurant customers experienced the factors that influence satisfaction in order to propose a conceptual framework of the customer satisfaction dining experience. The participants involved in the study were mainly restaurant customers to three Malay restaurants. Through the qualitative research method, comprising inductive analysis and multiple data collection techniques (i.e. in-depth interviews, observations and document) with a broad range of customers and insiders (restaurant manager and staff of restaurant front house department), a conceptual framework of the customer satisfaction dining experience was generated. The focus of discussion (Chapter 6) highlights the process and practices of customer dining experience, which in turns provides implications for restaurant management. This chapter contains of the academic context, overview of the study and outline of the thesis. 1.2 THE ACADEMIC CONTEXT The early 1970s saw the emergence of customer satisfaction as a legitimate field of inquiry (Barsky, 1992) and the volume of consumer satisfaction research had increased significantly during the previous four decades (Pettijohn et al., 1997). The issue of customer satisfaction has received great attention in consumer behaviour studies (Tam, 2000) and is one of the most valuable assets of a company (Gundersen et al., 1996). With regard to the food service industry, success in the industry depends on the delivery of superior quality, as well as the value and satisfaction of customers 1 (Oh, 2000). Most restaurateurs have realised the effect of customer satisfaction on customer loyalty for long-term business survival (Cho and Park, 2001), and have chosen to improve customer satisfaction in an attempt to achieve business goals (Sundaram et al., 1997).

First established in the fourteenth century, it quickly gained fame under the auspices of founder Parameswara, a Sumatran prince. Conquered by the Portuguese, Dutch and British, remnants of their rule can be seen throughout the well-preserved town centre, from Porta de Santiago (the remaining gate of the Portuguese-built A’Famosa fort) to the nearby Dutch-constructed Stadhuys. Malacca’s a small town so exploring it is fairly easy on foot as you’re never too far from tourist-worthy sights.
