RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Type of Research. Qualitative Research. Objectives. To know the dinning habit in district and familiar with the competitor strategy for formulating the best design. Methodology. Personal experience in dining at competitor shop and observe customers behavior. Result and Insight: Most of the table setting should be in 2 to 4 seats and the colour tone should be fresh and relaxing and a stunning feature should be in the shop.
CHALLENGE: Only 1895 sq ft of the restaurant with a narrow entrance is hard to attract the customer and the concept of tunnel will easily make people feel cramped and suffocated. To balance sense of heaviness of tunnel, wood and light colour is applied to create a peaceful and enjoyable dining experience.
