Young Can Wok

My eldest sister at her 70's now owns a store in Taman Midah market, good location, well known for her vegetalian food. She likes to introduce food less commonly found in hawker centres and coffee shops. Having no successors to take over the reins, she plans to keep cooking for as long as she can or simply close 'shop' for good when she feels that she is not able to continue.
Lately, I was told that her youngest son expressed interest in learning and taking over the business. Indeed, it is difficult for him first time hawker taking over with the long hours and hot stuffy working enviroment. But it is a good start for him carry on  my sister's business with zero investment and low overheads. Running a hawker stall is also a good way of learning how to operate a small scale business with the upside of being - "I Am The Boss."
