Great views are best experienced with Italian food at Isola

Food tastes better in beautiful surroundings. That’s just one of the reasons why the Italian cuisine at Isola Italian restaurants tastes so exquisite. Isola restaurants are internationally renowned for their chic interiors and spectacular locations. Isola Hong Kong’s open concept restaurant is well known for its stylish interior and has a large outdoor terrace overlooking Hong Kong’s harbour. Its sister restaurant Isola Shanghai has a reminiscent style and also has a sweeping outdoor terrace with views of bustling Lujiazui and the Huangpu River.



Against these stunning backdrops, Isola restaurants offer customers a daily antipasti lunch buffet, and an a la carte menu of fresh Italian food made from the finest ingredients. Get your meal off to a great start by treating yourself to a delicious light starter like Vitello tonnato con capperi ed acciughe (Roasted Dutch organic veal loin with tuna sauce, capers, anchovies and salad leaves) or Zuppa di aragosta all’ Aragonese con cozze e pomodorini (Lobster bisque style soup with mussels and San Marzano baby tomatoes). You can watch your food being prepared by our experienced chefs in the open copper kitchens.

Main courses include authentic Italian pasta dishes and a wide range of seafood and meat dishes cooked in the restaurant’s open ovens and grill. But the piece de resistance is Isola’s famed stone baked pizza. Try the ‘Trifola’ with black truffle and crescenza cheese.
 
These ultra crispy pizzas are also available in Isobar, a funky lounge bar and outdoor terrace directly connected to Isola Hong Kong. Isobar shares the same sensational views of the Kowloon skyline and is a great location in which to enjoy a casual lunch or pre-dinner cocktails from the exceptional drinks list.
Come and be seen at this happening scene with stunning scenery - at Isola and Isobar.

Manage Your Business Well in Three Easy Steps with Business Registration Hong Kong


  
Whether you manage a large or small business, effective management is key to smooth operations. Being a good manager means that you connect well with your employees, customers, and suppliers. Follow these three easy steps to good management from Business Registration Hong Kong to improve your business.



Step 1: Stop focusing on your experience.
Being an expert in your field isn’t enough to be a good manager. You need to be able to communicate that why and how you’re an expert, and communicate it to the people who need your product or services. In order for experience to make an impact, it needs to be complemented with good marketing, administration, customer service, and organization.

Step 2: Learn how to hire.
First, determine what roles you need filled. Are you good at customer service, but lack technical skills? Now you know what type of person you need to hire. Avoid hiring your friends! Hiring a friend can lead to serious problems within the friendship and the business. Most managers who hire friends have a hard time separating work and friend roles, so if this is you definitely avoid it! Remember the rules to promoting from within: promoting from within lowers hiring costs and raises employee morale. However, if the skill set isn’t in your company, be prepared to look for someone new.

Step 3: Be consistent.
If nothing else seems to be going right, stick to consistency! Nothing comforts customers or employees more than a company and boss they can rely on. For employees, keep your expectations, performance reviews, rewards, and discipline consistent. For customers, make sure they know exactly what to expect when they walk into your business. Keep quality, customer service, and store policies the same and watch customers come running back to you.



Do you have tips on what it takes to be a good manager? Let us know! For more information on how to improve your business, how to get started, and more, visit Business Registration Hong Kong.

Plan Your Recruiting With Tips from Business Registration Hong Kong



  


How do you start the hiring process? Many business managers jump straight to resume screening and interview performance as a basis for employee selection. While these can be a good start, it’s easy to be fooled by a professional resume and solid interview. Ensure a superior hire by planning your recruiting process by following advice from Business Registration Hong Kong.

Begin your recruitment hiring by determining what positions need to be filled. Perform a job analysis and write down all job specifications to better define the job description. Next, contact those who you think should attend the planning meeting. Start off with a Human Resources recruiter and hiring manager. You can also include successful employees in this position or direct supervisors to the position.


During the meeting, use the job specifications to rank the most important qualities, education, and experience for potential hires to have. This ranking will help your recruiter write accurate job ads and screen applications better. Remember, it’s okay to edit as the meeting progresses. Determine where the job will be posted to gain the best candidate pool, and remember to include internal recommendations.


Next, plan out the interview process. Write up the screening question for the HR recruiter to use for phone screens. Decide who will interview candidates and what characteristics they will be evaluating. Candidates should be evaluated on cultural fit and the skills needed to fulfill the role. Assign behaviorally-based interview questions to those who will be doing the interviewing. You can include real-life scenarios, role plays, and specific problem solving questions. If the job description calls for it, you can also include a test to give candidates, such as a writing test for positions that communicate with customers via e-mail. Determine how the questions, role plays, and tests will be graded and plan out the follow-up process.

Finally, get recruiting! Utilizing your team’s organizational skills will help you find the best candidates from the start, saving your company time and money. For more information on how to improve your business, how to get started, and more, visit Business Registration Hong Kong.
