Facebook user Catherine Ang Seow Leng shared how she visited a Swensen’s outlet at Tampines mall for lunch and received a tray of dirty cutleries.
She noticed that the tray of cutleries were dirty was she received it, and she was “extremely put off by this disgusting sight.”
There were visible grimy food stains on the forks, and some dried up stains on the spoons.
Ang revealed that she asked to exchange the dirty tray of cutleries for a new one, and she ended up receiving cutleries that were even dirtier.
She added that when she returned home later that day, she had diarrhea and was pooping her “brains out”, adding that she assumes it was because of the food that she ate there.
Here is what she said

Received this cutlery tray today at Swensen’s. I was extremely put off by this disgusting sight. Went to exchange it for a new cutlery tray and I received more dirty cutlery (4th pic, spoon)
Now it’s 4pm and I am at home sh*tting my brains out, not sure if it is because of the food we ate there but I assume so.”
Netizens’ comments
- Swensens standard has dropped terribly! Had a bad experience over at Causewaypoint’s oulet and service was terrible at Plaza Sing
- Could be when they stack the cutlery basket on top and the basket on the top has sauce/food residue at the bottom. Baskets need to be checked daily and washed weekly.
- I think it is high time now to display the phone nos of the govt dept in charge on this matters on the wall of all restaurants .
- Nowadays we bring our own plastic forks and spoons because I have encountered many times of dirty cutleries.
- Yeah. Went to swensens causeway point too. My god. The ipad to order was sooooooooo dirty with fingerprints of 50 customers before me. Had to tell the servers please help to clean up the ipad. Still didn’t make much difference. LOL. Oh well. But those cutleries are another level.
