“Apart
from using fresh ingredients, I concern about the process of
preserving. I use the best and classical sources to season our food so
as to keep the traditional flavour.” said Mr. Jeon. It is
known that Koreans love to eat preserved starters (known as Kimchi) a
lot and there are several hundred types of Kimchi Koreans like to eat.
Kimchi provided by Myung Dong Ok, such as ginseng stem, octopus Kimchi,
jellyfish Kimchi, mackerel Kimchi, cucumber Kimchi and so on are all
prepared by Mr. Jeon. Therefore they were kept its traditional Korean
flavour.
Then, Mr. Jeon set up a “Express
Korean Fast Food” outlet in
Tsimshatsui. This outlet is operating in quick service mode. It aims to
provide traditional Korean food to the customers who love Korean food
but do not have enough time to visit fine-dining Korean restaurant.
Myung Dong Ok is using Seito
F&B Management System together with Seito Wireless System.
Sam Lo,
the restaurant manager mentioned, “we know Seito has
developed to use PDA to take orders in food and beverage industries. We
also know that Seito is well known to provide a stable and reliable
F&B management system to the market. Therefore, we choose
Seito. Moreover, we also adopted their Seito Wireless System, which
really increase the operation efficiency. Nevertheless, our customers
are quite interested in our PDA terminals and think that we are
providing professional services to them.” The manager added,
“Besides, our staff has different nationality, especially in
our kitchen there are many Korean staff. The system provides Korean display and printing functions.
This not only greatly reduces the misunderstanding on the orders, but
also improves the efficiency of the operation.”
Myung Dong Ok is the first Seito user to use Korean display and
printing function.
