Do you think things are getting riddiculous expensive?

phtthp:

yesterday was public holiday, so early morning visited my mil wet market for breakfast. The $1 chuey kweh was sold at Pipit road wet market (inside old Macpherson housing estate).


if is burnt, feedback to the seller - tell him to improve next time. If not, customers wont patronize him anymore, if keep burning. Then he'll do something about it ...

when I showed her the black bits, she just commented: aiyoh, chow tar then nice because customers like the smell :yikes: :faint: But subsequently I didnt 'kena' anymore but I do not eat very often though

How abt being charged 30cents for a glass of warm water in the restaurant? Not that we did not order drinks for the adults, the warm water is basically for the child! :razz:

Some restaurants charge 60 cents for water so i rather order a chinese tea which is $1…

[phtthp]

next time bring along own water bottle, not worth pay 60 cents.

probably from the tap and throw in some ice cubes when they are 'generous' enough

insider:

anyone ate crabs recently?

went to No Signboard for dinner tonight.

quote $80 / kg for a M size Sri Lanka crab.

asked how come price almost like double?

was told coz now larger size crab more difficult to catch.

an M size crab is about 1.5 to 2 kg, so one crab is about $120 - $160 +++...

for those who fancy crabs, it is more value for money to eat at the crabs buffets.
where some hotels' cafes do offer special crabs buffets at certain period .....
( their crabs are not too small, of medium size and tastes great too)

Not only that, some Chinese restaurant even charge the kids at $1 per pax even when the kids din even touch the tea that was poured out as they brought their own water bottle... I argue with the captain n ask her to drop the tea charges for the kids...
