Hello world of amazing Steemians!

As many of you have been noticing, since some weeks now, i have been a little away and not so active on Steemit! I was simply making a daily post but could not engage like before as i was really busy!!!

The reason that I became so busy is.... I am opening a small grill restaurant in couple of days!!! The past 2 months, I was just busy setting everything up!

It is not a big restaurant, it is a place where I will mainly focus on take away food! There is a couple of seats if you wish to eat on site too!

The food I will be serving will be sandwiches, chinese dumplings, noodles, ice cream and some snacks for lunch and mainly chicken and lamb grill in the evening!

This is the view of the restaurant when you are entering!

Couple of chairs available for those wishing to eat on site or be surprised with a personalized menu I will prepare for each and everyone!
The guests will be able to see everything live and direct!

My gas grill, toaster, hood and deep fryer is ready to attack...

I found this steem logo on the toaster I bought...

Let's have a closer look...

Skewers, tongs, brush, grater, peeler etc... all on stand by!!!

Accepting STEEM and SBD as payment!!!

Since I joined Steemit, I had this in mind...when I open a business...I will surely accept cryptos as method of payment!

So voila, with PMC Grill and Resto, you can place your food order and pay directly with your Steem or SBD, simply transfer into my steemit account!!!


Promoting Steem and Steemit

When PMC Grill & Resto will be opened, I will be in direct contact with so many people everyday...I thought why not do some steemit promotion here!!!

I am putting the target of on-boarding at least one new user on Steemit per day, which I think is feasible! I will be showing to them how they can blog during the day and with the rewards they can get food and drink at PMC Grill & Resto! Isn't it great!?

On the same time I will be growing the Mauritian community on Steemit! Stay tuned for more news on same!!!


Please guide me!!!

I have been doing some researches on where I can get some promotional materials designs- flyers/ business cards/steem logo/etc... but I am a bit confused of what I can use or not!

Is there someone from the marketing team of steemit helping out such initiative? I would like to know more!

I want my restaurant to be fully branded with steem/steemit, am I allowed to do so?

Where to I get the promotion materials from!?

Thanks in advance for your help!


I have plans to open the restaurant in the next 10 days or so, I would really like to hear from you guys what you think about this?
Any idea/suggestions will be the most welcomed!

I hope to see you guys in Mauritius one day and stop by at PMC Grill & Resto for some nice food paid with steem/SBD!!!

Looking forward to your comments!

Thank you!
@progressivechef

EDIT:

Following some suggestions from some friends, I am tagging this #utopian.io as an idea/suggestion :

Would be great if we can have a single place where we can get access to all promotional materials we can use freely. It can be an app, or on a website or simply on the steemit UI itself.
All documents find there must be updated and ready to use by anyone wishing to make some promo in their country and in any business.

Thank you!

hey brother is this your restaurant:D:D

Hello my brother! Yes this is my small restaurant where I want to make simple people who has never seen star Michelin food in their life to experience it with me!

It a nice restaurant and a nice place for the steem community

Absolutely, I want to make that place like a steemit hub!

Hi @progressivechef! It's very interesting the concept of owning a restaurant that accepts steem. :)

Ravno par dni nazaj sem prvič poizkusil kamagra tablete, ki so močno izboljšale mojo erekcijo. Več let sem se ukvarjal s težavami z erekcijo in poizkusil sem že praktično vse. Od mnogih sem slišal, da Kamagra dejansko pomaga pri doseganju močnejše erekcije a je bilo težko verjeti, da je to res. Sedaj vam lahko iz prve roke potrdim, da dejansko deluje in močno olajša spolni odnos s partnerico. Samo zaužiješ 30 minut pred spolnim odnosom in nato lepo uživaš.

nice restaurant and inspiring cause! Keep going!

Yes that is her restaurant @bitcoincompany 🆗

That is his restaurant

Oo thanks:)✍✍

So important that we use this as an example, and support him and get all the people in town who are hiugry tpo go do some work on steemit and make some Steem/SBD and use theor upvotes also as payment, i mean we need to find way sto alow someone to earn some money and then get a small loan of a few SBD to pay for food INSTANTLY and in 7 days when they get paid they pay off their loan and it will help a lot of people find their way of instantly working and getting paid to be able to eat! Too much red tape and restrictions in our world!

First of all this one awesome development. Sometimes, i look at the world and i envisage crypto currency its all going to come to pass one day, congratulations

I am Cornholio! (Whoa! Hm heh... that was cool) I need T.P. for my bunghole! Come out with your pants down!

Thank you mr corn: 😁 whoo whats T.P and whats a dung hole? Im lost lol

Pants down? Now this is getting scarier

It really interesting as cryptocurrencies have seen an increase in it usage in diverse ways especially in business and trade

Hello @progressivechef ! I hope you remember me. I was the guy who asked you whether you really accept crypto-currency in your resto last week! And you informed me about Steemit!

Any Mauritian reading this comment! Please, try his burger! Among the burgers I've eaten around the island, his is one of the best!

Any non-Mauritian planning to come to Mauritius, be sure to visit Notre Dame at least once around 18 30, try PMC's burger! You'll want more!

Until next time, cheers! :D

Hey my friend!
What a pleasure to see you joining Steemit after our recent conversation!
Thanks so much for the lovely comment! I just hope we can grow the Mauritian community here, but first we need to spread the word to friends and family!

Hey this is awesome! I'm the Community Liaison for Steemit and you're free to contact me via email at [email protected] or on steemit.chat. If you're looking for steemit brand apparel this is our official store: https://thesteemitshop.com/

What a great pleasure reading from you here on my post! Thanks for your message on steemit.chat, I will be sending you some logos/designs I am making and see if they can be validated or even better upgraded!
Thanks so much for the help!

Congratulations on your own restaurant, @progressivechef !
This is a huge step and I'm excited to see it happening for you. It's also a great opportunity to promote Steemit and Steem since you accept it as official payment method!
Maybe I'll come visit it in Mauritius soon

Plato once said if you want to change the world you have to start with yourself.
There is also another sayings by #anon which says if ">quoteTHE BEST WAY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE IS TO INVENT IT"

To me your leading by example.
Your not only telling people what to do but rather your showing them how to do it.
This will get people who are crypto denials to reconsider their decision and also help to create mass adoption of #STEEMIT.

I wish you the very best in your business as you create more awareness for #Steemit

Hi... What a Great news!! Hearty congratulations and all good wishes dear Brother @progressivechef....
It's really great idea to accept steem and SBD. May God bless you always... :)

Hey my sister! How I am happy to read from you here! Thanks so much for all the wishes!
Hope to have you one day enjoying some food prepared by me!

Any discounts for new steemite members?

Of course there will be some interesting discounts for steemians!

This is terrific! Great work and congratulations.

Oh thanks so much for approving the idea my friend! Wow! A resteem from you is just magical thing to happen!

You are indeed a progressive chef

Hey my friend it's really a great idea that you had started and its new here people will know about steem and because of you the acceptance of steem and sbd will increases and also people will know about the steemit community. And your father plan to open a restaurant is also very interesting. My friend best of luck.

Yes my friend, I really want to use this restaurant to promote steemit/steem and educate people out there about the awesomeness of this place!
Thanks so much for your great comment!

You made a good point about the promotional materials. As of now it's all pretty much grassroots and scattered all over. Anyway, really nice to see you've opened up a restaurant to be serving up great meals for your customers. All the best and hope to be seeing more steemy stories out of your venture!

Yes! The amazing @kevinwong approves my idea! Thanks so much mate!
Looking for the promo materials is really taking a lot of time, but I am sure something will be done soon to make it easier for everyone!
I will surely share all the steemy stories with you all soon!

You are allowed to use the Steem logo and brand however you want, but any use of the Steemit logo/name should be approved by Steemit. You can reach out to @andrarchy if you have questions.

Hello sir! Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting on my post! Really appreciate it!
Ok i will mainly use the steem logo then, as for steemit I will only encourage people to join the platform!
Thanks again!

First of all congratulation to you ,for your first steemit Hotel opening.

If you give permission than I will make a business card for your hotel in which you will get name of dishes you provide and various other thing just give me permission .

Reply to me on discord or steem.chat
Steem.chat name crytopian or search @ cryptobychirag
Discord id name chirag#3828

Oh thanks so much my friend! This sounds interesting! Please do send me your proposal via steemit.chat, I have the same username! I will have a look!

This I believe is going to be good news for Steemit and steem hopefully more businesses will follow, cheers

I really hope some more people on here starts selling their services and accept payments of Steem/SBD. This will be just amazing!

This gives me hope for the future! Great idea, best of luck to you!

The future will be great if everyone start doing something connected to steem/sbd as from now! Thanks so much for the nice compliment!

100% upvote. well done, brave and humble! so had to upvote, also resteeming, we need more places accepting steem/sbd. smart idea. make sure you interview or take a photo of everyone that pays with steem so you can blog about it eh? :) cheers!

Oh yes my friend, I will surely take photos of everyone paying with steem and also all those I manage to bring on the platform!
Thanks so much for the wonderful words of encouragement!

oh and this is not quite what you want but will help -- http://www.steemitdesign.com - the three squiggles are open source and are free to use..

Oh this is a great link you shared mate! I will pick up some materials there! Thanks so much!

I am so happy for you, my friend @progressivechef. Congratulations!!!

Accepting STEEM and SBD as payment!!!
Since I joined Steemit, I had this in mind...when I open a business...I will surely accept cryptos as method of payment!

So voila, with PMC Grill and Resto, you can place your food order and pay directly with your Steem or SBD, simply transfer into my steemit account!!!

My business(es) will definitely accept steem & SBDs too as one of the methods of payment. This platform is a blessing to us.

@maryfavour & @redfishpillar.

This is really the way forward we all Steemians should do! If we all start dealing with steem/sbd, the value will surely have a positive impact!
Thanks so much for your support my friend!

Cryptocurrency at it best in business transactions

Great move boss @progressivechef and congratulations on your new good-looking restaurant.

Deciding to promote steem and steemit in your new venture is a great move and I can see how it will help on-board many great minds to our platform.

Regarding the marketing and promotional materials, I think #promo-UK head by @starkerz and @stephenkendal have tons of useful steem and steemit promotional materials that they give to people ready to promote the platform.

I'm resteeming boss

Oh hello brother! What a great pleasure reading such a great comment!
Thanks so much for the wonderful words bro!
I will try get in contact with @starkerz and @stephenkendal for the promotional materials!
Thanks again for the great support and resteem!

congrats for you....What a beautiful restaurant I appreciate it @progressivechef 👍👍

Thank you so much my friend! I really appreciate your support!

Thanks for your reply you're kind

Way to go friend. What a bold and smart move on your part! love the BBQ logo as well!

The Old Dog approves! I really believe in the future of Steem mate, and I think we all need to start dealing with these cryptos to make more people aware of same!
The BBQ logo is really cool!

wow this is a very good initiative, I love it, and its worth emulating, keep spreading the goodnews about steemit and keep doing your normal day activities and you will see the supernatural hand of GOD in your life and business.

and as for the steemit logo on your TOASTER, it's not a mistake dear but a divine arrangement, for when they is a will, they is a way.

good job dear.

Oh wow! What a lovely comment from you my friend! Reading such words makes me feel really motivated to keep going!
Thanks so much for the encouragement!

Wish you best of luck chef! I'll come to your restaurant if I have to chance to visit Mauritius :-)

Oh hi my friend! Hope you are doing fine! The doors will always be open for you!
Thanks so much!

congratulations! :D what a beautiful restaurant

Oh hello my friend! I hope you are doing fine and ready for the winter in your country!
Thanks so much for the compliment!

Congratulations on the new bistro! Looks great!

Oh this was the word I was looking for since I start to write this post! BISTRO! Thanks so much my friend, now I am sure to see you soon in my country!
After the fishing trip, we gonna grill the catch in the bistro!

I love that! Happy I had the word you needed! :D

Hats off to the Chef, you have just progressively started a venture that will add value to the Steem ecosystem. Weldone mate

What a lovely compliment! Thanks so much mate, I am so happy to be getting such amazing support from the whole community!

The ambiance there looks quite pleasing, and the fact that your grill supports cryptocurrencies makes everything even better. I realized the menu was in french, where are you from?

I wish you the best of luck with you new restaurant! Great post progressivechef!

I am from Mauritius my friend! A small island in the Indian Ocean! Creole is the main language and English the official language. But most people understand/talk French better. That's why you see the menu in French!
Thanks so much for the support and wish my friend!

That is amazing. Congratulations for the restaurant and the initiative to accept cryptos and include our beloved steem ❤

#steemyawards

Thanks so much my friend! I hope more and more people/business starts adopting this idea!

Please come to Ireland - the restaurant looks fab - all shiny and new! Best of luck in your new venture!

How I would love to be in Ireland! Lovely country full of amazing products! Thanks so much for the encouragement my friend!

Ah - many moons ago I worked in Singapore and my fried Harjit who worked with me was also from Mauritius. I never got to visit her home country - maybe one day :-)

This is an awesome initiative chef. good luck. Real world uses for steem will just continues to make it a stronger and more valuable coin

I just hope by this move of mine, many more people who already owns a business and is on steemit will adopt same idea. This will be just magical and will surely help growing the value of steem!

All the best chef, keep on rocking!

How cool! I wish you all the best and it looks great!

Thanks so much man! Really happy that you liked the idea!

Where is the restaurant? I want to eat here and support you for doing this new innovation! Thanks for the story

Hmmm the restaurant is far from the US my friend! It is in a small country called Mauritius and found in the Indian Ocean!
Thanks a lot for the support!

Way to go @progressivechef! Congratulations on the new restaurant. Nice idea, accepting Steem & SBD! :D

What a pleasure reading from you my friend! Thanks so much for appreciating my work!

I admire your work and dedication... no wonder you made it this far (steemit and outside, too)! All the best my friend!

hi @progressivechef,

Very nice kitchen, and I love that Steem logo on your grill.....haha nice catch.

I'm new here, but just Powered up with Steem so I want to upvote and encourage as many people before school starts tomorrow!

keep steeming.

upvoted & followed, and hope we can continue to meet up on steemit from time to time!

Oh yes when I saw that Steem logo on the toaster, I was really surprised!
It's great to see young like you joining and investing on the platform which is also very important as all these little things we are all doing will help raising that Steem value!

Hey @progressivechef you took a peak into my wallet....haha, just kidding I do that as well, yeah I just made my first Steem investment yesterday, I think I want to invest more, everything but I was advise to take it slow....oh well.

Anyways....do stop by my post, drop me a line, and you'll see that cooking is also one of my passions...haha :)

How many square meters does your restaurant have and where is it?

Thank you for promote this.
Best regard @galberto

Good luck with the restaurant.
Best regard.

In a couple of years if crypto grow at this pace I will certainly visit you in Mauritius, paying a sandwich with my posts on steemit would be AWESOME!

Cryptos will surely grow my friend! It will be really awesome to have you one day in Mauritius!

Good luck with the new restaurant.

Would you have the facility to have a computer screen on the counter where people can browse steemit while they wait for their order?

Thanks so much mate!
Yes I have planned for ipads in the future, but for now I will be using my laptop!

Congratulations, it's a great idea you are into. I hope i can put up the same in our country but people are not yet aware of cryptocurrency here. Good luck bro... looking foreward for more news regarding your resto:)

In my country too people are not aware of cryptos, but we need to start to educate them at some point!
Thanks so much for the support my friend! I hope you do it too!

here you can see the difference between steemit and steem https://steemit.com/logo/@steemitblog/the-new-steemit-logo-is-here

Hello my friend! Thanks so much for the link, I will be checking it soon!
Have a great day ahead!

good luck& you have success in it

Thanks so much for the nice words my friend! Really appreciate it!

Hi bro..this is u restaurant?? Nice view broo

Yes my friend, this is my restaurant! Thanks so much for your nice words!

This is what I call a GREAT news!

Nice work, @progressivechef. We definitely need more places that endorse ideas like yours.

You are absolutely right mate! If only we have more and more places adopting steem/sbd payment, it will be just amazing!

@progressivechef Who knows in the near future that doesn't become a reality? So far, the scenario looks very promising.

This is the risk with cryptos my friend! Before jumping in we all need to be aware of the high risk of cryptos market!

Yes :D I would like promo materials too, as we will be accepting Steem payment in our Etsy shops :)

Your space looks great! I hope you do really well there <3

This is great to read my friend! Thanks so much for the support! Accepting steem/sbd is just amazing for the whole community!

I am putting up a post now (inspired by you!!!) and have added a shop announcement already...now we just need a logo to add to our shop banners...and YES, I agree, it will be very good and hopefully bring more people in as well :)

This is just amazing my friend! I'll check it out for sure! With more people taking this initiative, the word will be spread across the world!

Awesome idea, good luck man!

Thanks so much for supporting the idea my friend!
Cheers!

really super & mind touch post and pic like it. and back

Hey my friend, thanks so much for stopping by and enjoying the post!

That is just great... I am an owner of 2 small fast food restaurants and wish you all the luck with your business... I know you will need it ;) If I can help you with some advice just contact me...

I predict and expect very much that in the near future and with this great development in the currency market, the Citit Sion has the largest share of the whale of the increase in currencies
do you agree with me

This is just the beginning my friend...in some more time crypto will rule all over the world!

I wish more for the development of this wonderful currency

Pls tell me where is your restaurent located i am eager to eat food in that place

You have to come to my country if you wish to eat for steem/sbd! It is in Mauritius!

Marsikdo ima zdravstvene težave in zame je najhujša poroznost v telesu, šel sem k zdravniku in mi je predpisal zdravilo za porozite, vendar je zelo drago in nisem vedel, kako bi to lahko plačal, vendar mi je prijatelj svetoval spletno lekarno, kjer je isto zdravilo veliko cenejše in brez recepta, zato sem lahko kupiti stromectol

This post has received a 26.73 % upvote from @booster thanks to: @progressivechef.

I just launched my site to list all the businesses accepting STEEM/SBD.
Your business is listed there :)
You can read about it here.

Your resto looks so nice. I wish there is something like that in the Philippines.

I am sure you will find it in Philippines soon my friend! This is just the start, someone will surely start it there too!

I might start one in the Philippines but I need to look for a cook. Haha

Frign awesome my man, these are the kinds of things that will make STEEM mainstream. Good on ya Chef!

You are absolutely right man, it is these small steps from each and everyone that will make Steem and Steemit big!
Thanks so much for the suport!

This sounds amazing. I will come over to your restaurant when I'm in Mauritius. This is a great idea.

You are the most welcomed my friend! I am happy to read that you liked the idea!

Cool.. Really like it

Thanks so much for the support my friend!

very good restaurant keep posting more

For sure my friend, I will keep you all updated! Thanks for the support!

hmm.....
personalized menus? I hope you can do that, that sounds terribly hard!

Best promotion afaik is to go out there and promote yourself. Give small items of what you do to passersby on a near-by market or other place where many people are that could be hungry. Invite them to your place.

I am in fact a crazy type of chef always pushing my limits to the max! I know it will be hard making personalized menus for each one...but I think I can at least try it out!
Thanks so much for the great idea my friend, I will surely try all type of promotion for both the restaurant as well as steem/steemit!

Congratulations mate! it looks amazing, i wish i could have the guts to open my place as such. all for the best. Please come to Sydney in Australia! ill be eager to support.

This is so cool to read my friend! How I would love to have a such a restaurant out there in Australia!!
We never know what can happen in the future!

Wow! I hope this trend continues and pays us all good money! ;)

I hope more and more people start using cryptos in their daily activities, this will help in raising the value of them!

phenomenal bro!!!

I'm really excited for you!

For steem to be worth more in the future, more places accepting it as payment is super key!

Hey my friend! What a pleasure having you here! You are so right, once more places start accepting steem as method of payment for any kind of services, it will be just amazing!

@michaeldavid my contact you soon with some ideas if he ever pries himself away lol

very nice!

Looking great bro!
I used to be a chef some years ago.... almost for 10 years! So like chef to chef: the place rocks dude! Keep the good vibes within your restaurant and success guaranteed will come!

Ha ha I love the steem sign on the grill cover ha ha.

Oh wow! Another chef on the platform! My pleasure knowing you chef!
Thanks so much for such nice compliments!
If you are in Mauritius some day for holidays, just drop me a line!

This is amazing! Now I definitely need to visit Mauritius!

If you need any help with flyers, posters etc, I am your woman! I think I can definitely help you out with some cool promotion - branding and menu cards even!

I wish you the best of luck - you deserve it my friend!

I told you since long that you definitely have to visit this lovely country my friend!
Once I have the finalized logo of the restaurant, I will surely send them to you and I know you will do wonders! We'll discuss same on a later stage for sure!
You have been a great source of inspiration and support since I started here!
Thanks so much!

Yes, yes, I know! Maybe somewhere in the next two years, who knows! I bet it's a lovely holiday location. :D

And definitely! Hit me up when you're ready - I am happy to help :)

You're very welcome - and you've been as equally valuable. Spread the loooove!

Wow it was awesome congratulations wishing you all the best,, great @progressivechef

Thanks so much for stopping by my friend! I really appreciate your support!

Great news @progressivechef! Congrats. A place of yourself I think always a dream for every chef, but not easy and giving stress!
Are you gonna have staff with you, or is it just going to be a 1 man show?

You are located in Mauritius? How is the general idea about crypto there? As in....do a lot of people have faith in it? Or do a lot of tourists drop by? Otherwise start with explaining about crypto I guess.. :)

Good luck my brother! Greetings from a chefs wife haha

Having my own place where I can create freely is really the dream of all chefs!
I will have my nephew together with me and I am also inviting anyone who wish to come and learn to come and be part of the team!
Yes my friend, I am in Mauritius and really the general idea about crypto is not so encouraging but we need to start explaining at some point! Crypto is still so new for Mauritius but I am confident soon it will take over!

Thanks again for the great comment!

This is a wonderful idea.. the world needs people like you. My brother had been thinking to open a small take away type restaurant (just like yours) in Qatar. Would you mind if i pass along this idea to him to accept BTC, Steem and SBDs as modes of payment?

Of course man, please do pass him the idea and tell him to accept these cryptos, it will be just great for his business!

The restaurant is very nice
It is also fashionable in hand
decoration
@progressivechef

Thanks so much for your nice compliment my friend!
Wish you a lovely day ahead!

First of all, congratulations for setting up your own restaurant - it's never more exciting to set up one's own business! Secondly, what adds the perfect icing to the cake is that you will be accepting crypto, Steem and SBD for starters I am assuming, as well, which is what the crypto world needs - more acceptance of the currencies! So three cheers for both! Lastly, where is this restaurant going to be? If I am in the neighbourhood, I will definitely jump in!

I really believe in the acceptance of cryptos all over the world very soon! So we all need to start preparing ourselves with that!
I am actually on the island of Mauritius situated in the Indian Ocean! Hope to see you one day here!

It is not nice to drop links here on my post my friend! People can downvote you for that!

Woah
This is really awesome.I mean,whatever in the world could u possibly ask for,paying in crypto currency,that is really nice.
I really wish i can visit some day.
I would really love to.

Thanks for such encouraging words my friend!
I hope to see you one day here!
Have a great day ahead!

Congratulations @progressivechef!

Hello my friend! Thanks so much for the wonderful words on my content!
Really appreciate!

nice work man looks great! etes vous francais?

if you need a logo, i can whip something up for you. where is your restaurant located?

Je suis Mauricien! I understand both English and French my friend!
The logo is nearly ready, but still if you can make something, I will be most happy to have a look for sure!
I am in Mauritius itself!

cool, ill try but gotta finish some other projects first. was just an idea if you didnt have a logo yet.

but wow your all the way on that tiny lttle island? crazy, whats the population there?

Bonjour à nos amis Mauriciens! J'espère pouvoir venir vous visiter un jour.

Bonjour mon ami! Seems like you know Mauritius and Mauritians quite well! Hope to see you here one day!

This is so awesome!!! I wish I could come visit.

Once you get established you should consider starting a chain of these.

I love seeing more places open up which take cryptocurrency.

Starting a chain of these small types of resto is really a great idea!
Thanks so much for the suggestion my friend!

Hope you start in Michigan :)

Nice restaurant, I hope it all goes well! What a brilliant idea! I never knew the value of cryptos until I joined Steem. Although I heard of bitcoin before and so many times but never pay attention to it.

The possibilities with cryptos are just going to change the whole world my friend! This is only the start...very soon you will see all the developments across the world!

Congrats on the entrepreneurship! Curious about the name. Progressive in a political context is counter to entrepreneurship. What do the initials of PMC stand for?

Progressive in kitchen means to modernize, upgrade, elevate the traditional rough food into something refined!
PMC = Progressive Mauritian Cuisine

Ah... I understand. Good Luck to you.

Hi, good luck with your restaurant and promoting the network!

Hello my friend! Thanks so much for stopping by and encouraging me on my project!
Wish you a lovely day ahead!

Wow. This is an awesome feat! Maybe I could start the same here in my town too and start promoting cryptocurrencies in the process. Thanks @progressivechef!

Of course you should definitely start it out my friend! It will work for sure, you just need some advertisement and you are good to go!

That is awesome news and I wish you much success with your restaurant. For payment the esteem app or the steemit wallet app (once released) should be perfect to use for mobile payments.

Thanks so much my friend! Yes you are absolutely right, with the steemit wallet app, things will be even more easier!
I am so pleased to read from you here and supporting the idea!
Thank you!

For your promotional material I recommend going to @benj.friedrich to get a steem membership card made. I think I paid 0.10 SBD. It has the QR code on it so anyone with a smartphone can just scan it and it will take them to your steemit profile.

This is so cool my friend! Ok i will check him out!
The QR code is really needed as it will be easy for people to get to my profile!
Thanks so much!

Wonderful exploration of cryptocurrency in the living physical marketplace! I love it!!
And all the best wishes getting the restaurant off to a successful start
I’ve heard it can take 5 years to profit - stay focused on the passion of serving people and you’ll do fine

Yes you are right my friend, to make big profit it will take time, but I just love cooking and making people happy! Even if the restaurant is not so profitable...but I am able to on board people on steemit and my account is making a decent payout...I'll be more than happy!

Congrats! Location please.

Thank you!
I am based in Mauritius my friend!

Oh! I twitted on Twitterand would have mentioned Mauritius had I known ...

That is brilliant, where can I visit this lovely Restaurant?

Thanks so much my friend! Hmmm to visit this place you have to come spend your holidays in Mauritius! A small island in the Indian Ocean!

this is so cool!

Thanks so much for enjoying the idea I put forward my friend!

I see one problem and it is that 99% of the people in Mauritius don't know about cryptocurrencies or steem. I know that because I am living in Mauritius for 4 years I have told many people here about cryptocurrencies and steemit but you know how they are.....
I really like this idea not just to pay in your restaurant with cryptocurrencies more like that it brings the topic closer to the people in Mauritius and they can see that you can buy things with cryptocurrencies so maybe soon there is because of you more people who know about cryptocurrencies and join Steemit.

Btw where is your restaurant maybe before I leave Mauritius which is soon I come and eat and pay in SBD.

I wish you lots of success and a nice day :)

LOVE&LIGHT

Really excited to know that you opened your own restaurant and accepting cryptos!

When I get back, I will definitely checkout your restaurant.

Do send me the address here/ steemit chat/ discord.

Good luck with your new adventure XD

Hey my friend! Hope all fine on your side! Yes it will be opened in couple of days! Situated in Notre Dame! When you are back just send me a message!

NOM NOM NOM!

Thank you @killerwhale! Great food coming up from this place soon!

This is pretty amazing, but you left out one critical piece of information.

The restaurant's address.

Now, I know that very few of us are in Mauritania and probably unlikely to drop by… But you never know. You need to provide the most opportunity for the most number of people that you can.

You have also already created entries for your restaurant on Facebook and Google Business, correct? Both of those will drive local engagement and discoverability, giving you the best chance of getting the most people into seats and eating your food.

Congratulations, I'm glad to hear that someone out there is seriously making a stab at starting their own business. The restaurant field is hard and you will have some lean times, but I wish you all the best.
