He traveled frequently in the United States, Asia, Europe. Cities and states of Colorado, Arizona, Folsom, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Anaheim. In Asia, Malaysia, Singapore and about 10 times in Tokyo Japan. In Europe, Dublin Ireland. These are Short trips from 1week to 3months for business and chance to enjoy delicious Foods. These travels and experiences created the network of good friends and prolific Chefs with world-diverse culinary expertise.

In 2003, during this period, the Couple conceptualized the idea of why not bring these International Foods to the Province of Camarines Norte and have their province-mates enjoy the Lovely Place with KFisher  truly Authentic Pure Ingredients of Expensive Restaurants in Manila and the World at the Affordable Price of Daet.

The couple took leverage of the King Family advantage of having its own Fishing boats, HK Fish Brokerage for Fresh Seafoods and together with the network for Authentic Japanese Foods and International Cooks and Friends. This advantage gave KFisher the edge in terms of Fresh Supply as the Fish, Squids, Shrimps go straight from the Boats to KFisher thus avoiding the long staging of goods in the local market. This less handling and staging has also given low price and a guarantee of Fresh Supply of Seafoods at all times.  Thus the beginning of .... KFisher Seafood and Japanese Restaurant.

r KFisher is an abbreviation of KingFisher, name of a Bird that catches fish. Also “King” came from Hazel's family name and the word “Fisher” came from the core business of her parents and Grand Parents (Fish Broker) where the strength of KFisher Restaurant came from.
