      I've noticed that you say alot of things about what someone said you receive alot of messages from people saying different things about your restaurant that's really not important to speak about almost every restaurant around the world receives some type of criticism so that's no big deal and if you all refuse to gloves or not hairnets or not is up to the person eating at your establishment... Putting a camera in the lady's face was so unnecessary and asking her if she's going to quit! That's not right and you shouldn't have done her that way you just said RUclips affords your lifestyle and take opinions from those that support your channel...Alot of that support your channel has a voice to say what they want and you won't always get good messages it's alright you all didn't miss a meal...Make Nam and her son a RUclips channel train her in the world of RUclips so she can help take care of her son and be self sufficient because you all scroll around with the camera or go elsewhere for lunch or gym or massage therapy and Nam who works the hardest is happily doing whatever is asked of her....Teach her RUclips she can also learn and gain stop feeding her as the saying goes give a man a fish and he eats for a day or teach him how to fish and he can eat a lifetime....Nam and her son can share your supporter's and it would be nice because she can't stay with you forever she's a mom with a teenager son who probably wants his own room and it's mighty crowed in your home and Nam would be a great candidate for her own place and maybe a few paid months off to herself and her son they have so much catching up to do... Imagine being without your children all of those years it would eat away at you so she probably feels a way but she keeps it to herself because you fund her livelihood... Prayer's for the best and I pray that her and her son get everything they need for a new beginning God will allow Nam and her son to be blessed 🙏🙏

      ​@@lesliemiller9345 Well said!! Lilly laughed and rolled her eyes about people saying they should where gloves and hairnets. She knows full well that people working in restaurants in the US and Canada are REQUIRED to do that for health reasons. To me, Lilly has become EXTREMELY arrogant. She's also lying about her income being only from RUclips. She gets paid from her mom's clothing store, I don't know why because she does nothing and her lifestyle is to grand to afford on what she gets from RUclips. She would NEVER empower Nam to financially independent. Nam does EVERYTHING for them because Lilly and Wat are as lazy as F**k!! Have you ever saw Lilly working?? Never!

    Hi Lilly, it is so thoughtful of you to constantly check on everybody and make sure they are all happy and ok. The fact that you are arranging for Nam not to have to be there every day, and to come in to work at the restaurant when she wants, says how much you love others and appreciate them. You are showing God's love and care of others, we are all His children.
    I love how there is always time for the kids to be kids and have fun. It is the same for the adults, you all need a little time of resting and relaxation, to balance off all the hard work when it gets too busy or stressful.
    Prayer is the best answer for facing stress during the day, I know you know that. May God bless all of you, and keep give you all the wisdom to manage this huge project in a successful and balanced way, like you are doing now.
    May everyone come to know Our Wonderful Creator through your beautiful example and relationship with Him and others near you. ❤

    RESTAURANT IDEA: Hey, Lilly, do you play music at your restaurant? Perhaps feature music playing that coordinates with whichever cuisine you're featuring that day (e.g. Spanish music for Spanish/Mexican cuisine; Italian music for Italian cuisine, etc. and of course Hawaiian/polynesian music most of the time, since it is "Lillikoi"). Also, consider adding a big screen TV/screen to play video shorts. I once visited a local Indian restaurant here in Florida that played Indian music videos with dancers. So entertaining! Also, lots of FROZEN DRINKS for the hot temps would be so refreshing for everyone visiting your restaurant.
    Luke is so funny! "I'm going to hire you to take out the trash". 😂 You're looking great, Lilly! and your mom is beautiful.

    My husband and I ran a restaurant in north east of Scotland, my daughter spent weekends at a given table playing, having dinner, homework and also interacting with customers and taking orders. It’s done her a lot of good to see how hard her parents work and to see us graft…she doesn’t take our blessing for granted. Taking our daughter to work has taught her things that no book or schooling has taught her. Also she remembers the fun times and parties we used to have with staff who became like an extended family. An invaluable life experience for kids for sure! You’re doing so amazing!❤

    Your mom always looks amazing. I love her glasses and how all her dresses makes her features just pop. She looks absolutely gorgeous in the dresses you all wear. Honestly she truly inspires me to try and be brave to buy and try one of your dresses. 💜💜💜

    I always wondered what's the meaning of "Lilikoi" I thought it came from your name, something like that. I had in mind to ask you so many times. I got it now. What a nice name for your restaurant. It's really unusual hot for this year. I think it's the hottest summer in the decades. Drink a lot of water to avoid dehydration (please tell Gigi too) Please take care ❤

    Lilly & family I wish you well in your restaurant endeavor. As you know Koh Samui tourism ebbs and flows immensely with the seasons. This winter even finding a place to stay was difficult as you know. You and your family and friends are looking healthy and happy : ) We will visit your restaurant when we return to Samui.

    Hi Lily, Mark Weins is a Thai/American food blogger that travels to eat, if you invited him to try your food he would boost your audience/customers/FC etc we love watching his travels and he is super popular, I don’t know if he’s been to Koh Samui but he’s done a video on Phuket and places to eat that he highly recommends. Could help business along and attract a wider audience ❤just a suggestion 😊

  • @dellascott163
    @dellascott163 Год назад +3

    The gloves and hair nets are good suggestions because if one hair is found in the food, the person who saw will make it go viral. I have found hair in my food before and it's not good because it spoils your appetite. It's just good practice. Hair and food never mix well together. Hair nets don't have to be hot. They have holes in them. If you don't want to do the hair nets, make sure everyone's hair is slicked back in a ponytail.
