Ang Mo Kio HUB
Weather : Sunny

Benedict and I decided that we should search around AMK Hub for food/beverages company . As soon as we reached AMK Hub, we decided to go to Level B2, where most of the food stalls can be found. There we saw a few companies and decided to approach them.

The 1st stall we approached was "Snow Frost" located on level B2. But immediately, we were overwhelmed Advanced Chinese. After around 5 minutes of trying to understand each other, the manager of the shop replied that she is not interested in this collaboration. We thanked her and left

The 2nd stall we approached was "Lumont Chocolatier" which is also located on the same level. And fortunately, we were greeted by an English speaking employee. This time we managed to converse fluently, and the employee agreed to pass down out "message" to the shop owner. We gave our contact information and thanked her for her time before leaving, in search of another stall.

The 3rd Stall we approached was "Yami Yogurt". We managed to speak with one of the employees but was quickly referred to an Enquiry Hotline.I dialled in the number, and my call was taken by a service desk operator. After talking about our project and whether Yami Yogurt is interested in this collaboration, she referred me to an enquiry email address. I thanked her before hanging up the phone.
[ Benedict and I then considered that Yami Yogurt is a rather large company and the process for us to reach the intended Head might take too long, and so we decided to "drop" this company ]

After looking around the mall for more shops, we decided to look for other shops outside AMK Hub. After about a 15 minutes break, we ventured outside AMK Hub in search for more companies. After about 30 minutes, we arrived at AMK Jubilee, where we found a beverage stall, " Chatime". We spoke to the shop manager and she seem keen in this collaboration and they took down our contact informaton. Also, since is was a hot day, we decided to try one of their products called the Chocolate Mousse as its name captured our attention. We enjoyed our drink and once again thanked the shop manager for her time.

And that concludes our(Ben-and-Daniel) adventure.
