【不同的路有不同的風景,我們選擇自己最喜歡的一條】
(English version below)
士愷想要創業很久了,不久之前,總算等到了好的時機。我們完成了很多計劃,也開始有新的機會出現,所以士愷覺得是時候可以展開行動了。
也差不多在那個時候,士愷得到了一個升職的機會。到底要成為主管?還是要堅持自己創業?這不是個簡單的選擇。為了不要給他任何壓力,我決定不要影響他心裡的想法,畢竟不論我說什麼,最後他還是要自己抉擇。
考慮了一段時間後,最後他選擇......放棄升職的機會,並開始準備離職,準備嘗試新的生活方式。
去年,我們認識一個同樣也在台灣生活,很熱情的印度男孩莫罕。他在台北開了一家原汁原味的印度餐廳Moksha,因為網路評價很好,很多人推薦,所以我們也決定去那邊吃吃看。我們享受了印度的美食,那一道道精緻的料理真的讓我們大開眼界,我們也和老闆變成朋友。
和老闆莫罕聊過天後,我發現實際上,莫罕和士愷其實有個共同點......莫罕之前在新德里的五星級飯店工作,因為廚藝出眾,很受到老闆的賞識。那時候莫罕面對了跟士愷一樣的選擇,要升職?還是要創業?
非常有創意性的他,一直很想嘗試自己創業,最後他也就走了這條路。緣分帶領著他來到台灣,他先在台北的天母區開了第一家Moksha印度餐廳。他把全部的心力都投入在這間餐廳,自己設計菜單研發食譜,自己裝潢規畫,從印度帶來所有的家具和藝術品。越來越多台灣人和外國人注意到他的努力,他的店也越來越受歡迎。幾週前,莫罕甚至在大安區開了第二家Moksha餐廳,聽說李崗導演也曾特別到那邊用餐。
他也分享他在台灣奮鬥的心得給我們,他說很多台灣人喜歡嘗試新的食物,總是願意給個機會。這也讓他能夠憑著印度菜,和台灣人交流,他非常感謝。
除了莫罕的廚藝和創意性外,我們其實也很佩服他的努力、誠實以及對人和職業的尊重。
他的故事也給了我們一些啟發。我們很能理解,創業是多麼需要努力。雖然辛苦,但卻有機會實現自己的人生觀,是非常有成就感的事。我們願意牽著手,一起為自己的夢想更加油!☆
【Different paths have different views. We choose the way, which we like the most.】
Shihkai has wanted to start up a business for quite a time. Not so long ago, he finally felt, that the right time has come. We have completed many goals and started to set up new, so Shihkai decided it is time to start.
At that time, Shihkai he's been offered a promotion. Is it better to become a supervisor? Or maybe stick with the startup plan? It was not an easy answer. I didn’t want to give him any pressure, so I decided that I should not influence his choice. After all, no matter what I say, it is his own decision.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to… gave up the promotion. He was ready to leave the company and try a new lifestyle.
Last year, we met an Indian guy Mohan, who, the same as we, lives in Taiwan. He opened an authentic Indian restaurant Moksha in Taipei. Because of many positive online reviews and because many people recommended this place, we also decided to go and give it a try. We really enjoyed the Indian cuisine there. All the carefully prepared dishes have widened our taste horizons. Later, we became friends with the chef.
After talking with Mohan for a while, I realized that Mohan and Shihkai actually have one thing in common… Before, Mohan worked in famous five-star hotels in New Delhi. Because of his outstanding cooking skills, his talent was appreciated by the boss. And at that time, Mohan faced the same choice as Shihkai. Accept the promotion? Or maybe start own business?
Because Mohan is a very creative person, he always wanted to have his own business and in the end, he decided to walk this way. Fate led him to Taiwan, where soon he opened his first Indian restaurant Moksha, in Taipei Tianmu district.
He devoted all his energy to this place, designed the menu, improved and created his own recipes and also designed the restaurant's interior, bringing all the furniture and artwork from India. More and more Taiwanese and foreigners started noticing his efforts and the restaurant became very popular. Few weeks ago, Mohan has opened his second Moksha restaurant in Taipei Da`an district. I've heard that the famous director Khan Lee also had a dinner there…
Mohan shared with us his thoughts and challenges which he faces in Taiwan. He said that many Taiwanese like trying new food and are always willing to give a chance. He is very grateful, that he can use the Indian cuisine to interact with locals.
Besides Mohan’s amazing cooking skills and creativity, we also admire his hard work, honesty and his respect for people and work.
His story gave us some inspiration. We understand very well, that starting own business is a hard work. But though it is hard, we have a chance to realize our goals and this gives us a sense of accomplishment.
We will dream big and work hard to accomplish our goals! ☆
