I'm in the mind of doing one off weekly specials at the Starbeam Restaurant in the very near future. Never the same thing twice, but willing to add one or two to the menu if we get a good response from our customers. I've been saving recipes for years now of things I know we could do fairly easily that, in my opinion, would go over well with many people I believe. I would give a week's heads up for the special of the day on the FB page for the restaurant. The usual 'special' would be enough for 8 to 10 plates of the special, first come first served, until it is gone, 'while it lasts'. I think I would do this on Fridays for those looking for something different. I'll know what works by the response.
This will be my retirement 'hobby' to keep my hand in and using my very good large kitchen here in my Thep Thani place, 2 stoves, 6 burners, 2 crock pots, and all the equipment I need that I have bought over the past couple of years since 'retiring' from active duty in the shop. I basically these days just do the computer ads for the shop every few days. It'll help the restaurant I think, maybe give some an enjoyable dish they can't get elsewhere, and something to look forward to for those wanting something like this. I'd probably do it starting at noon on a Friday each week until the food is gone (hopefully) by that evening's closing time. Like I said 8 or 10 servings and once gone it's done.
Wondering what you all think of the idea.
It would be dishes I feel would go over well with Thais as well as westerners and use ingredients fairly easy for me to obtain here. Many of our Thai customers enjoy our western offerings and are keen for new things to try. We will see.
