Krispy Krave

Many of you may already know that I'm fatally attracted to Krispy Kreme. Due to a series of unfortunate events, i haven't quite had my Krispy Kreme that i've been expecting to chomp down over the weekend. To counter this urge, which over the years, i also discover that many others out there has the same kind of craving, i could actually set up my own franchise. I have some grand plans, "sure work" plans and they sound really good. Given the "market survey", people queueing up for yucky donuts at Raffles City and they obviously haven't had Krispy Kreme before, i think it's feasible business... Until i saw this...
