Looking for an advice.

Would it be a good idea to open an indian take away in pattaya catering mainly to all expats.

Food make according to their tastes.

Is it a good idea ?

Would you like to go to such place n get a take away that serves

Chicken Tikka Masala

Chicken Bhuna

Vindoo

Madras

Patia

Etc etc

Looking for sincere advice please

Thanks ?

They already exist -

Tikka Centre and Country Favourites to name just two

Yes please

There's a lot of competition but if you can provide a distinction like really good food, good price, and strategic location, why not?

I have no input on the competitive position in Pattaya, I don't live there.

But, my question is have you ever run a restaurant, or been in the catering business back in your home country?

The restaurant business is brutal, everywhere! I have family members who own, or have owned, restaurants and it's a tough tough business. You can be King of the Hill for a year then be bankrupt the next.

Don't go into catering thinking it's easy, and certainly if you're later in life, don't invest your life saving's. It's a young man/woman business, when you still have the time to pick up the pieces if it fails

Food to die for especially for us ex-pats but you are more likely to lose money than make in Pattaya
