Ex-hotel workers in Penang provide delicious packed meals at W. Kitchen - superadmin - 03-11-2021 Retrenched because of Covid-19, ex-hotel workers in Penang provide delicious packed meals at W. Kitchen GEORGE TOWN, March 11 — When The Northam All Suite Hotel closed its doors last June for a massive two-year renovation, most of its employees were laid off. Wang Chen Yee, 54, who was the general manager, decided to start a small food business and roped in some of the former hotel employees. “We were retrenched so I was thinking of what to do next and I wanted to do something to help those who are talented but with nowhere to go,” he said. This saw the birth of W. Kitchen in late June, a catering and lunch box business located in a shophouse at Arratoon Road in George Town. - More -
