Being Genera Manager of one ven e is a b syeno gh job. So being GM of five, spread over

ocations inc ding Pattaya, Bangkok, Koh Sam iand Ph ket is an even b sier one. However,Ph ketindex.com managed to track down MichaeChick, GM of The Coffee C b Thai and at theirJ ngcey on branch and asked him a few q estionsabo t what is q ick y growing as one of Thai andsmost pop ar hango ts, The Coffee C b.

CaN you tEll us a littlE about yoursElf?My first job was act a y when I was sti at high schoo .I worked part time in a branch of McDona ds in my homeco ntry, A stra ia. When I eft high schoo I contin edworking for them and worked my way p thro gh theranks and I ended p staying there for abo t 10 years.I then eft to join The Coffee C b. I worked for the gro pfor 5 years in A stra ia as Nationa Operations Manager.Then in 2008 I got a phone ca from Bi Heinecke(Chairman of Minor Internationa owners of The CoffeeC b) asking if I wo d be interested in working in Thai and.

At the time I wasnt interested as I was concentratingon something e se and I pretty m ch forgot abo t it.However, twe ve months ater I received a ca fromPa Kenny (CEO of Minor Internationa ) asking meif anything had changed and again asking if I wasinterested in working in Thai and. This time aro nd,there was not so m ch happening for me in A stra ia

so my wife and I came over for a 3 day trip. I hadan interview and in the two days my wife and I hadto spare, we both decided we iked Thai and andfe t Bangkok was somewhere where we co d ive,so I accepted the job. We ret rned to A stra iaand within six weeks we had packed o r bags andmoved o rse ves to Bangkok. There was no brandof The Coffee c b in Thai and when I arrived so itwas going to be my job to a nch the brand here.We opened o r first store here in Ph ket at T rt eVi age, Mai Khao beach in 2009.

CaN you ExplaiN thE CoNCEpt bEhiNd

thE CoffEE Club?The main thing we try to achieve with The CoffeeC b is a re axed environment. However, one ofo r b zz phrases we have been sing recent y is ifesty e dining. When peop e visit one of o rbranches there are no r es or restrictions as towhat yo can eat or when. We offer a day breakfastsand we offer a coho . If peop e want to eat pad thaifor breakfast they can. The idea is to make thingsas simp e as possib e for the cons mer. In mypersona opinion, as a cons mer, nowadays it isgetting harder and harder to have what yo wantwhen yo want. So my phi osophy is the easier yomake the environment for the cons mer the morethey are going to want to come back. We offer s cha arge choice on o r men , coffees and cakes,pastries, chicken dishes, fish dishes, pasta andThai food. In saying we want to be ifesty e, we areopen from 8am nti 12pm and we have a men thatoffers something for anytime d ring that period.

is it thE saME CoNCEpt withiNEaCh braNCh?The concept is fair y consistent thro gho t a of thebranches. The on y one that is a itt e o tside of thisconcept is o r branch at S varnabh mi Airport. Hereit is designed for speed, so its a grab and go concept

beca se everybody there is in a h rry. If I had 10 bahtfor every c stomer I spoke to who to d me they had ap ane to catch I wo d be a rich man. The men is a otmore imited there too.

how doEs CoffEE Club diffEr froM othErCoffEE housEs?like I said before its a abo t the ifesty e option ofhaving what yo want, when yo want it. If yo compare

s p re y to o r coffee competitors, yo cannot fa t whatthey have done for b i ding the coffee profi e here inThai and, b t I serio s y think we offer a m ch betterprod ct. At the same time, o r point of difference is we

offer the extensive food men . When yo ta k abo tresta rant cafe concepts ike B ack Canyon, I g ess weare a ot more modern than they are and I serio s y feeo r q a ity of food is a ot better than theirs too. O rfoc s is a ot more on the western food than the Thaifood and theirs is the other way aro nd. B t that said,we do take o r Thai food very serio s y, the Thai foodhas been designed by Thai chefs and it is a Thai chefsworking in the kitchen.

do you havE a favouritE braNCh loCatioNiN thailaNd aNd why?To be honest I have to say that where we sit now in o rJ ngcey on branch is probab y my favo rite ocation o tof a of them in Thai and. I think its beca se yo can sithere and see whats going on o tside, its a great p acefor peop e watching. I dont ike to be biased b t I a sothink its beca se a ot of the c stomers we have hereare A stra ian, sometimes I think Im sitting in Brisbanewith the amo nt that are here. Its a so nice beca se theywant to come and ta k to yo being a fe ow A ssie, theywant to come and know what yo re doing here and wantto know yo r story. If yo re getting a itt e home sick itsa ways a good c re to come and sit and ta k to a fewfe ow A stra ians.

havE you rEaChEd your targEt of sEvENbraNChEs to bE opEN by ENd 2010?

unfort nate y, we didnt q ite reach that target; we managedto open five branches by the end of ast year. O r target nowis to open five new branches by the end of 2011. We area ready ooking at ocations at Kata and Karon here inPh ket, we are ooking at another 2 ocations in Pattayaand then weve got two ocations in Bangkok that we are

ooking at as we . The strategy for a nching the brand inThai and is primari y to ook at the to rist ocations first; werea y want to get the brand recognition before we try to getthe Thai c stomers so we have to choose caref y the right

ocations in Bangkok. Bangkok is a rea fick e market and yosee so many resta rants come and go beca se they dont

nderstand the market and they dont isten to the cons mer.We are a big company and we have the experience. I thinkthat with Bangkok we wi probab y be ooking at the S kh mvitarea and there is one ocation we are negotiating on at themoment. So watch this space.

do you havE aNy othEr aiMs for thE CoffEEClub thailaNd for 2011?Act a y ast year we took one of o r baristas to A stra iafor The Coffee C bs Internationa Barista of the YearChampionship. He was a g y from Chiang Mai who came toPh ket to work for s here at the store and we trained himand he has now been with s for two years. I knew as soonas saw him work that he was ta ented and I tho ght if wetake him and he can ho d his nerve on the day, and not getto nervo s in the competition s rro ndings, then he had agood chance of winning. Sometimes Ive seen with staffthat when there is press re they wo d rather take a stepbackwards than forwards, b t we rea y enco raged him andhe act a y went on to win the competition. For s that wasamazing and for the peop e from A stra ia and New Zea andit was even more amazing. I dont think they co d be ievethat we had on y been open for a year and a ha f and thevery first barista we bro ght to the competition b ew themaway. So saying that I think o r aim is to go back to A stra iaand repeat that. So I hope he wi go back and defend his tit eand hopef y we can take one more barista from here withhim. Its a great opport nity for someone from Thai and to go

and visit another co ntry as it is something they cannotdo so easi y. Its a so a good story for recr iting staffand giving them s great objective when they come towork for s.

what do you look for whEN hiriNg stafffor your braNChEs?Rea y the most important factor for s is persona ity.The ski s they wi req ire can easi y be trained tothem. Some of the best baristas we have had had noexperience at a at making coffee. unfort nate y, if wehave peop e that come from other coffee brands theyseem to think they know everything there is to knowabo t making coffee, this can bring a bit of a cha enge.They need to have a reasonab y good eve of Eng ishand in a to rist ocation I think its critica they havethis as c stomers, a tho gh on ho iday, get fr stratedvery easi y and they often take this o t on the staff.This is something that rea y bothers me and I wo drather not emp oy someone who has itt e know edgeof Eng ish, not beca se I dont want to, I do it for thembeca se if c stomers end p ye ing at them beca sethey dont nderstand them they are not going to behappy and wi end p eaving the job anyway.

do you plaN to opEN aNy MorE braNChEsiN phukEt, if yEs whErE?like Ive a ready mentioned, we wi definite y ook atthe So thern end of the is and, when weve got a itt e

bit of critica mass we wi possib y ook centra and withregards to the North, possib y aro nd the Chengta ayarea. I think there wo d be a good opport nity in thisarea beca se the expat crowd that are there tend tostay aro nd that area and I dont fee they wo d traveo t j st to come to The Coffee C b. However, if theyhad something there Im s re they wo d fit s into theirro tine.

If yo havent a ready visited The Coffee C b here inPh ket, next time yo re in Patong or Mai Khao beachp ease ook o t for them and stop and have a ook atwhats on offer. There rea y is something for everyoneand the q a ity is a c t above the rest. look o t for newbranches opening soon!!

Cha ong and Patong are two comp ete ydifferent p aces. Patong is an area that is

comp ete y driven by to rism. Cha ong,a tho gh growing rapid y for many years, hassti retained its origina c t re and identity.Yo can sti fee that Cha ong has a senseof comm nity, even tho gh many of itsb sinesses are to rist foc sed. A so the ocapeop e sti have a very strong and deep presencehere, this is something yo wi not fee in Patong.

what do you, as a ChEf, sEE iN vsEtsfuturE?Vset has a dynamic men that wi constant yevo ve and make idea se, not on y of myexperience and the fantastic ingredients wehave avai ab e here, b t a so from the feedbackand reactions we receive from o r g ests. It iso r p an to keep the most pop ar items on themen , b t contin e to introd ce new andexciting dishes. We a so want to providea satisfying dining experience time and timeagain, making Vset not on y a resta rant b tan extraordinary dining destination, and a soto increase recognition both nationa y andinternationa y.

IsThaIFood goodFor you?

Many peop e enjoy Thai food more than any other type of mea . Thereasons for this, Thai food is one of the best tasting foods on the

earth, d e to the fact Thai food has been deve oped for years andin uenced by different cultures. Everyone can nd something theyike to eat as a basic part of Thai c isine. F rthermore, this food

is considered hea thy by many who stick to it, even when takeawaysare taken into acco nt. This is beca se Thai food ses meat of smaanima s, which is ow-fat, s iced and mixed with different vegetab es,creating a hea thy exp osion of taste which make yo r senses gowi d. A so, Thai food is served with nood es or rice, th s being witho ta the harmf s bstances we eat thro gh bread, white f o r etc.Neverthe ess, not to j mp to conc sions, Thai foods hea thy va esdepend on the type of food eaten in the rst place. So, read on to ndwhich Thai c isine wi provide yo with best n trients and east fat.

g b ?There are Thai mea s which are greasy as theycome with pork s ices and other fatty meats.However, there are p enty which are perfect y

ba anced. In fact, Thai food is known for itsba ancing of mea s, s a y, if the main dish isspicy, other dishes wi compensate for that,being mi d and p easant for a h ngry pa ate. Thisba ance has contrib ted to the pop arity of Thaifood since it adds different tastes and variety.

Many Thai recipes se t rmeric, which is a good so rce of antioxidants, trea ting and preventing n mero s diseases andinfections. Thai ginger does wonders for o r digestive system, being a va ab e ingredient in many Thai dishes. Coriander,which is a so sed a ot in Thai kitchens, encompasses both of the va es the previo s two ingredients have, adding some byprotecting yo r heart from many diseases and boosting yo r appetite. Cocon t oi boosts o r imm nity and metabo ism,providing s with price ess omega3 fatty acids. Fina y, emongrass is yet another part of Thai c isine which protects s fromdiseases like cold and u, as well as arthritis, fungal infections and many others.

Therefore, you can only bene t from consuming Thai dishes, since, in many aspects; these are superior to most other.

Being here in Thailand, possibly the most popularchoice of food when dining out is Seafood. Chillthat bottle of white wine and let us take you on theunderwater journey to Seafood Heaven.

Seafood is de ned as edible sh or shell sh. Thevariety of species living under water is incredible,and this is why seafood is a delicacy; once youacquire the taste, is hard to beat.

Most people have tried shrimp at some point, possiblebecause its the most well-known crustacean.

Shrimp is best served warm, grilled with a combination ofgarlic, olive oil, a hint of lemon, some pepper, and somespices of your own preference. But shrimp keeps its tastemost when fried.

Lobster, although expensive, is many sh lovers favourite.The most popular way of cooking lobster is boiling or steamingas this will provide a perfect balance between taste andtenderness. Some chefs prefer to steam lobster becauseboiling it often adds a watery taste that many people whoeat it arent fond of. Lobster may also be barbecued. All thesame, most will eat it in any shape, form or fashion.

Crab has to be the king of seafood. Crab is in much

greater demand than other seafood, which to some extentexplains its price. Crab can be cooked in the same waysas lobster.

Scallops are a delicious shellfish with a delicate taste.Scallops can be prepared in seconds when ash frying overhigh heat. They can be pan seared, boiled, grilled, andsauted. They are delicious any way they are prepared.The scallop has such a great avour it is often prepared andserved very simply so as not to overwhelm the taste of the

scallops.

Seafood is a great addition to any diet. If you are alreadya seafood lover, you do not need convincing. If you haventacquired a avour just yet, then try each one slowly, cooked,boiled or grilled with a sauce or base that will lessen thearoma of, well, sh. Before you know it, you will develop aninsatiable desire to dive in deeper.

Fo ic ar unit Extraction (FuE) is a techniq e sed for gainingdonor hair for Fo ic ar unit Transp antation (FuT), whereseparate fo ic ar nits are harvested direct y from the donorarea, witho t the need for a inear incision. In this hair restorationproced re, a 1-mm p nch is sed to make a sma incision in theskin aro nd the pper part of the fo ic ar nit, which is thenextracted direct y from the sca p.

Fo ic ar unit Transp antation and Fo ic ar unit Extraction aresometimes viewed as being two tota y different proced res. FuE,in fact, is a type of FuT where the fo ic ar nits are taken direct yfrom the sca p, rather than being microscopica y separated froma strip that has a ready been removed. To say it another way, inFo ic ar unit Transp antation, individ a fo ic ar nits can be

obtained in one of two ways; either thro gh sing e-strip harvestingand stereo-microscopic dissection, or thro gh FuE.

Therefore, when comparisons are made between FuT and FuE,what is rea y being compared is the way the fo ic ar graftsare gained (i.e. strip harvesting and dissection vs. direct extraction)rather than p aced into the sca p. However, the harvesting techniq edoes have imp ications for the proced re s ch as the transection(damage) rate, distrib tion of fo ic ar nits, n mber of grafts persession, post-op care and the tota graft yie d.

Beca se FuE does not eave a inear scar, it may be appropriatefor patients who want to wear their hair very short. The proced reis a so good for those who have hea ed poor y from traditiona stripharvesting or who have a very tight sca p. Possib y the most important

function of this technique is to camou age a widenedinear donor scar from a previo s hair transp ant

proced re. In this techniq e, hair is extracted fromthe area aro nd a inear donor scar and then p aceddirect y into it.

Patients differ signi cantly with respect to the easein which fo ic ar nits can be removed from thesca p. In some patients, extraction res ts in

nacceptab e eve s of transaction (damage d e to

c t hair fo ic es).Whi e the FuE has grown in pop arity, arge yd e to the minima y invasive way, the standardstrip excision method is sti the most pop arhair transp ant proc d re

Designers choose uPVC over othermateria s ike a mini m, wood and other avai ab e optionsfor the window and door designs main y d e to its weatherresistant properties as m ch as it offers strength and he psease of se and maintenance.

This is possib ebeca se they are ab e to give good therma ins ationas compared to a min m or wood. D ring the s mmerthey re ect the heat of the sun and keep you cool.
