Keep Moving

Some of you may have noticed the long break we took. Since December of 2021, from New Year's and the Omicron surge last January 2022, it became a challenge for us to go back to the market. The constant change of schedule, the adjustments needed to be made with online schooling and the preparation of going hybrid for work made it difficult for us to manage, until the Greenhills Weekend Market met its own challenges and eventually closed down.

We were taking few orders online from our weekly clients from the market but we did not go full on as we might not meet demand with our schedule. On top of that, we had some health issues we attended to as well. It was only this May when we sort of, got back on track.

We are currently looking into joining a nearby weekend market so we can push for the expansion of our humble bakery business.

Making bread has been the epitome in our family to be always at our best because we serve other people. With that, we are always 100% in everything we prepare. Mistakes are welcome for improvement, but to fail is something we want to avoid.

Thank you for always checking with us, it really means a lot...

2 Months Hiatus

Hi everyone! it has been exactly 2 months since we last participated at the Greenhills Weekend Market, and if you noticed, within the same timeline, we also stopped getting orders online. 

Here's the story:

It started middle of July when the Mr. was called for his first dose of Covid- 19 vaccine. As expected, he felt some side effects and had to rest. The following week, the Mrs. got her first jab as well and the scheduled appointment fell on a Saturday. You see, the people behind Frank & Mike's Bakery are the very same faces you see at the market every Saturday. Frank & Mike's Bakery is literally a family business.😅 It's quite challenging, but we are still grateful to be able to establish and run a small business during this difficult time. 

Anyway, there were other reasons why we were not able to go back to the market. One was because of the inclement weather that followed. Then, the ECQ, the entry of the Delta variant and and the rise of Covid- 19 cases.  Within the past 2 months we also got our 2nd dose of the Covid- 19 vaccine. So yes, we are fully- vaccinated under the A4 catergory.👍

It was just one thing over the other that we decided to take the opportunity to rest and get the much needed break, gather our thoughts and of course, so we can smoothly move forward once we open the bakery again.

Frank & Mike's Bakery will open soon with a simplified menu. We will start posting updates and hope to see you at the market on our return.😀
