The Chop ‘N Chill fusion restaurant franchise is the business to get into if you love food. Chop ‘N Chill prides itself in the fact that anyone can walk in and find a favourite meal. Combining the best of Eastern cuisine with the cuisine of the West, Chop ‘N Chill has so much to put on the dining table, and on the boardroom table too.
Chop ‘N Chill began when Jacqueline and Paul Cudmore came back to Australia after 9 years of living in Southeast Asia and travelling to the Americas. Jacqueline fell in love with Asian food and Paul loved his smoky basted meats, so they conceived of a fusion concept that would blend the fresh, street-style flavours of Southeast Asia with the hearty meaty flavours of the Americas.
This unique blend of cuisines captured the people of their hometown who started to flock to Chop ‘N Chill’s first restaurant on the beautiful Hastings River in Port Macquarie. The success of the concept has spurred the Cudmore’s to open up to franchising so that food lovers can bring their one-of-a-kind cuisine to Australians all over the country.
The Mouthwatering Menu
Customers are wowed by the interesting and delicious menu at Chop ‘N Chill. The strong, rich American smoked meats paired with the subtle spices of Asian cuisines really keep them coming back for more, and since it is the only restaurant offering this special blend, they will continue coming back over and over again.
Chop ‘N Chill offers something for anyone, anytime of the day. Creative breakfasts wake customers up the right way, delicious lunches keep them going throughout the day and luxurious dinners are a wonderful way to relax after a hard day’s work. Customers can also pop in for fragrant tea or coffee with a slice from the ‘wicked cake cabinet’.
Sharing and non-sharing options as well as vegan, vegetarian and gluten free menus cater to customers with different needs, upholding Chop ‘N Chill’s inclusive dining values, and a fully stocked bar means customers can spend hours wining and dining away. If they can’t stay, they can order from the extensive takeout menu to enjoy a good meal anywhere, and if they have something to celebrate, they can book a function.
to its unique food concept not found anywhere else in Australia.
The plan, moving forward, is to expand and promote the Chop ‘N Chill concept in key locations all over Australia by on-boarding like-minded franchisees who are ready to grow the Chop ‘N Chill family with positivity and innovation.
A Practical Business Model
The Chudmores have developed and refined a practical working model through their extensive travel and research into food trends, but they aren’t opposed to collaborating closely with new franchisees to tweak and refine their menu to suit local tastes while still maintaining their signature flavours. The beauty of it is that new franchisees are enabled to have a very strong and positive hand in the growth of the business.
