💬 From the Founder (Liew – a kind-hearted and easy-going person, though I’m not someone super rich)
First of all, I just want to say this sincerely — I hope I can contribute a little help to victims from Ukraine.
I know putting a job post like this might sound unusual, but it comes from a genuine place.
I’m an introverted person, and posting something like this to the public is kind of a phobia to me,
but for things to move forward, for something meaningful for everyone, I need to step out of my comfort zone.
I know Malaysia might not immediately impress, especially for those from Ukraine or Europe.
The UK is often seen as the dream, a first-world favourite, while Malaysia is still considered a third-world country.
But trust me, it’s not what you might imagine.
I’ve worked in France and Monaco. I studied in North America and Singapore.
So I understand your concerns, and I hope that gives me a little credibility and earns your trust.
Just give yourself a chance, and maybe, give us a chance too.
Everything here is negotiable and flexible.
I care more about whether our values match and if you have the right energy.
I believe the missing piece is branding — that’s what makes a business franchisable, VC/PE fundable, and globally expandable.

🍽️ Who We Are
We’re building a Western & fusion restaurant brand called [** Coffee & Dining], based in Malaysia.
It’s not just another café, it’s a fresh rebrand focused on premium aesthetics, fusion food, and emotional experience.
We’re working to create a restaurant that people remember, photograph, and talk about.
We’ve already opened multiple branches (under different names before rebranding):
• Muar Branch –

• Kluang Branch –

• Kampar Branch –

Now, we’re resetting with a branding-first strategy.

💼 A Bit About Me (So You Know Who You’re Working With)
My name is Liew — treat me like a friend or even a potential future business partner, not your boss.
• 🎓 Degree & Master’s in Mechatronics Engineering
• 💻 Worked in IT & Fintech for a decade
• 💥 Started an IT startup (failed — great lesson)
• 🍽️ Moved into F&B and launched several restaurant branches
• 🚀 Now building a brand-led, scalable dining concept

🎭 The Role: “Founder & Head Chef” (Branding Face Role)
We’re looking for Western-looking travellers (female or male, no experience needed) to act as the face of our brand in the restaurant.
This is not a real cooking job. You will not need to cook. It’s purely a branding presence role.
👕 You’ll wear a shirt that says: “Founder & Head Chef”
🕰️ We open 12 hours daily — you can work as little or as much as you want, but preferably during lunch and dinner peaks
👥 Walk around, smile, talk to guests like you’re the owner
📷 Join in photos/videos on social media like XiaoHongShu, Instagram etc. (optional but encouraged)
Your job is to help the restaurant feel international, premium, and memorable.
