I'm the owner of a restaurant in the city. It's a kind of theme
restaurant. We specialize in Latin American food, and we serve dishes that are
tasty and also healthy. The restaurant started out quite small, but lately I've
been able to double the amount of space we have and it's doing really well.
Next year I plan to open another restaurant based on the same successful
formula: Maybe we'll serve food from the Caribbean... you know, like Jamaica and
the Virgin Islands as well as Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.
I think the reason the restaurant is successful is that we concentrate on
serving food of the very best quality for a reasonable price. I think
advertising has also been important. We've run ads in magazines aimed at younger
professional types, and the restaurant has become a kind of meeting place for
people.
