Bhajia stall in Kenya
Sell bhajia prepared to a consistent portion and service time.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional bhajia service: sixty 150 g-net portions of cooked potato bhajia, nine kg total accepted product. Potato slices, gram-flour coating and declared coriander/spices form the buyer-approved sample; actual slice/coating/cooking method is set by a competent cook/food plan. Net cooked mass includes coating/oil, so nine kg cannot be claimed as raw potato yield. No sauce included in base order.
Who is the first customer?
