Reflection

Name: Akhilesh Kumar

Challenge & Selection

To start this writing, I need to talk about design thinking as an enablement and a very  important quality since it allows different ideas to be developed globally

As an experience I would like to count the time I decided to sell fast food as a way to  generate extra money during quarantine

Application

First of all, I had to think that I wanted to specialize the food service, I had to debate  between burgers and fries or sandwiches and fries.

Analysing with my brother (an economist) he told me that there were many emerging  burgers stands in the sector which would be a difficult competition but very profitable  lunch since there were no burgers at a good price and with respect to sandwiches, we  analyzed the competition and realized that there are few sandwich places. It could  clearly be said that the option of sandwiches was chosen but it is not so, since there are  few restaurants of this food one can understand that they have rotation.

After having chosen the burgers, I started trying different flavors and types of pairing,  also taking into account the final price of the product. Since the idea was to get a  product that is tasty, unusual and with a fair price for customers. With this in mind, I  bought the necessary ingredients to do a tasting with my family and select the burgers  that met the requirements we were looking for.

We started selling the product, focused on the people of the north of the city and people  we knew (family/friends), our cheapest product was a Burger with fries for eleven  thousand pesos and the most expensive was a mixture of quite a few preparations that  made an exquisite flavor together with beef achieving the pairing sought above. I was  the only one who works in the kitchen since starting to sell was up to me, but that didn’t  take away the fact that my mother helped me cut certain things while I prepared other  products.

Insight & Approach

It all ended when I began to feel quite tired since the job was demanding and the kitchen  felt small for so much workload
