Peppers Bakery & Cafe, Ubon Ratchatani

**MeMock** · 12-05-2009, 04:27 PM

Thought it was time to share with you all what has been keeping me busy over the last month or so.

My wife and I in partnership with another couple recently purchased Tony's Bakery.

We closed it down for a few weeks while we renovated, found new staff and implemented a new menu. We opened for business yesterday under the new name of Peppers Bakery & Cafe.

I won't waffle on anymore so will let some photos tell the rest of the story.

Good luck with this Memers...you seem to have a good touch for people-oriented things so hope it's profitable for you in the longterm...

**sabang** · 12-05-2009, 04:42 PM

Best of luck Memock, and congratulations. I'll pop in shortly.
The place looks great- I notice you've made good use of that Kimberley red.
Whens the opening party?

**kingwilly** · 12-05-2009, 04:44 PM

good stuff and good luck mate.

**Thai Pom** · 12-05-2009, 04:47 PM

Looks great, sorry I do know where Tonys is/was !! Address / directions please, Cheers, TP

Best of luck with this project Memock, I'll call in for a latte and and a bit of crumpet next time I am in the area.

**baldrick** · 12-05-2009, 04:53 PM

nice and clean looking place - I have started to see a few Thai owned eateries starting to understand the importance.

looks good

can we have gps co-ords ?

**Chairman Mao** · 12-05-2009, 04:55 PM

Looking great. And those criosants are bloody cheap.

If only I was living in Ubon.

Best of luck with it. Looks like a nice place to chill.

**peterpan** · 12-05-2009, 05:50 PM

Memok, that looks smart, nice colours and decor although don't like those bar stools much but generally, looks great as do the products.

**JoGeAr** · 12-05-2009, 06:00 PM

Very nice. Hope it all goes well.

**Rural Surin** · 12-05-2009, 06:00 PM

A nice added variety to the Ubon eatery scene. Good luck to ya MM!!

**Marmite the Dog** · 12-05-2009, 06:18 PM

Looks great, Mate.

Print some labels out rather than hand writing them as they look pants.

**Spin** · 12-05-2009, 06:57 PM

Nice place, well done! Reminds me a bit of the kiwi cafe in Khon Kaen. They make most of their money from local yuppie types, rather than farangs, I wonder if you might see the same thing there?

**terry57** · 12-05-2009, 07:14 PM

Brilliant matey, good luck with it.

**dirtydog** · 12-05-2009, 07:14 PM

Seems a bit upmarket for Nakhon Nowhere, the local yokels might find it a bit intimidating, although I'm sure the Thais will like it though

**Bexar County Stud** · 12-05-2009, 08:12 PM

Looks great, all the best.

**killerbees** · 12-05-2009, 08:36 PM

That couch looks damn comfortable!

Best of luck...

**Jet Gorgon** · 13-05-2009, 01:42 AM

Looks fab, MeMock. Wishing for great biz for you. Show us a menu, please. Can you deliver?

**nedwalk** · 13-05-2009, 03:42 AM

looks good mate, stick to the tried ane true KISS principle and all should fall into place

**MeMock** · 13-05-2009, 02:52 PM

Sounds great gkbkk, your order will not be a problem but I will need to swap your crumpet order for home made english muffins if that is okay

Agree 100%. Will be buying a printer any day and should have that problem rectified soon.

Early trade is suggestion about 70% Thai and 30% westerners.

Hi Jet, before posting a menu I would prefer to get permission from the mods as although of course I was thinking of promotion when I started this thread it was also to bring friends up to date with what I have been doing, not just promoting it.

**Thai Pom** · 13-05-2009, 04:57 PM

Memock,

I spoke to a friend of mine who lives in Patio outside of Yasothon and often makes the trip in to the airport to pick up visitors, I told him about you opening. He loved Tony's,all but one thing. He did not open early enough to catch the 1st flights in/out of Bangkok. He reckoned a sign outside saying "breakfast" would catch the punters going to /coming from the airport. I can understand you are knackered at this time, but it might be some to think about! He might have been one of your customers today!!

Just a thought, Good Luck.

**MeMock** · 13-05-2009, 07:57 PM

Ahhh so it was you Thai Pom who passed on the good word - many thanks!

Your friend came in for breakfast this morning after dropping friends off at the airport. He was very happy to hear that we open at 7am.

To prove that great minds think alike the large red banners arrived last night and went out side first thing this morning with one of them saying 'breakfast' must have been just as he was driving past.

**Jet Gorgon** · 14-05-2009, 07:13 AM

^ I demand a menu! Understand your sentiments, tho, Memock, but hey, don't be shy, show the folks what you're offering. And then us dumbo critics can offer suggestions.
Happy to hear the first few days are going so well.
