The food vendor revealed that whenever he marries, his wife will join him in his food business endeavour. According to the businessman, he likes working with men than women because they can exert more physical energy.

He added that he has been cooking for a living since 2018. Samuel said it was quite difficult when he started the business because he always had to go to the market every day.

Challenges faced by Samuel

Speaking about some of his challenges, he revealed that an epileptic power supply makes refrigerating food items a hard one. He also said he is looking for a space where he can simultaneously cook and serve customers.

In his search for a shop, he always met a wall whenever he told the landlord he would be using the space as a restaurant.
