The Chef's Transformation

Samia ran a small restaurant in Dhaka. Every day she bought fresh vegetables from the supermarket. Her refrigerator was always organized with ingredients. She was very conscious about carbohydrate amounts in creating healthy food. She measured exact quantities with a tablespoon in every recipe. Controlling cooking temperature was one of her specialties. Her goal was to provide economically affordable but quality food. To reduce expenditure, she bought items from local markets. She changed the menu based on the availability of seasonal foods. Her restaurant achieved considerable success in a short time. Customers started making reservation. Once there was a disagreement with her family because they wanted to increase prices. But Samia's values did not correspond with their ideas. She partially accepted their advice but kept her own principles. routinely she tested new recipes. privately she dreamed of a bigger restaurant. She was very selective in menu selection. One day a famous food critic congratulated her. She succeeded by consistently serving good food. Even though some competitors made inappropriate comments, she didn't give up. Today her restaurant is one of the best in Dhaka.
