Creating Luxury in Wang Steak


What is a brand? Is it merely a name as the video suggest? 

Wang Steak is a part of a premium restaurant group in Taiwan, famous for offering affordable fine dining experience. 

I feel that although Wang portrays itself as a classy restaurant, its target market is not the elite and exclusive. Instead, Wang Steak is targeting the mid to high income level. By creating a luxurious brand image, Wang Steak convinces the customers to pay a premium for the experience of fine dining.
