So we get all those flavors and combine it all together,” </em>sabi ng magkapatid.</p><p>May limang Filipino cocktails din sa menu at best seller ang <em>Mango Mojito.</em></p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="kumakain " src="https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2023/tfc/01/21/mga-kaumakain.jpg"/><figcaption>Photo from Kain FB page</figcaption></figure></div><p>Ayon sa magkapatid 85% sa kanilang customers ay hindi Pinoy kundi Norwegians at isa na rito si Tore Sirevaag.</p><p><em>“First of all, I think it’s a unique concept. You find lots of that, and lots of Vietnamese but it is rarely any Filipino restaurant around. I think it is very interesting to try that kind of food as well because this restaurant definitely has the ambition to take Filipino food further than normal. I think it is a very exciting place to try out,” </em>sabi ni Tore Sirevaag, Norwegian customer.</p><p>Patunay ang restaurant ni Dominic at Daniel na kayang makipagsabayan ng mga Pilipino sa restaurant business sa Norway.</p><p>Alam nilang napapanahon na ring matuklasan ng mga Norwegian ang natatanging lasa at kultura ng mga Pilipino.</p><p>Kaya payo ng magkapatid na negosyante: <em>“Don&#x27;t be afraid to start, know your goals and be consistent!”</em></p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="diner" src=" https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2023/tfc/01/21/talking-to-diners.jpg"/><figcaption>Photo from Kain FB page</figcaption></figure></div><p>Hataw man sila sa trabaho at pagpapalago ng restaurant, nais nilang makamit ang kanilang goal sa negosyo at personal na buhay.</p><div><em><strong>Para sa mga nagbabagang mga balita tungkol sa ating mga kababayan sa Norway, tumutok sa TFC News sa TV Patrol.</strong></em></div>
