Clàudia:Hi Toni! When you finished in the cooking school in Tona, what did you do? 


Toni: Hi Clàudia, well, I studied in the cooking school during two years, after I finished, I worked in a restaurant here in Vic. In this restaurant I served the plates and did other tasks, but I worked a lot of hours in the weekend and I didn't have time to stay with my family and with my friends, and I decided to quit. 

Clàudia:You are young, do you tink that you are qualified to run a business?

Clàudia: What kind of products will you sell?
Toni: The main product that I sell is roast chicken and side-dishes for the chicken, with pre-cooked meals as well. 

Clàudia: Why did you decide to open your own shop in  this moment with the economic crisis?

The first reason that moved me to open a shop, is because I have always liked creating my own shop and I think that now was the perfect moment, and the second reason is because my family gave me a lot of  support and helped my with everything.

Clàudia: And the  last, are you pleased with your shop?
