A netizen was shocked after realising that he/she was paying $2 just for the plastic packaging from a dessert stall located in Tiong Bahru.
Here is the story:
Just take note. from Tiong Bahru market food centre @ Tian Tian dessert stall.
Market hor, not the food court at Tiong Bahru Plaza. The plastic bowl packaging is $2 so this Cheng Teng cost $4.
I’m so shocked. Somehow I got a 趁火打劫 feeling… or is this the current standard now? For everyone to take note in case going there to taboo back..
Update – Confirmed real – cos I did not believe it and asked the seller why $4 (I gave $10 note and I got $6 back for 1 bowl of hot Cheng Teng). So was told takeaway is $2 more. Then I see the stall front also pasted the notice of $2 for plastics container takeaway. Too bad I didn’t notice before ordering.
Next time, our eyes must open big first or ask first (cannot assume it’s 50 cents). Lesson learned
