How to snap pics in military camps?

Even then, no independant parties can just openly walk in to do a surprise spot check on the breakfast items.

 

If camera or visit permits are done before hand, it is almost as good as announcing the visit, everything sure swee swee. You'll see breads that were baked 1 or 2 days ago. I had seen and consumed near expired breads being served during BMT.

 

Every week or month, we were supposed to rate the catered food. All other token slots are covered up with tape, except for "Good".

So of course those at the top are made to believe the food is indeed good.

 

No need snap pics. Take the packaging out of camp and call hotline. Sure someone will follow-up. U want make it big, take the packaging to ur MP and complain.

Anyway now some camps can bring in camera phone. Cookhouse not considered a sensitive area so can still take photos openly.

Correct lar, but how u know that the hawker isn't just damn lui been one? For example, I live in Kovan and there's the Bedok Roast Meats. I know for a fact that rental at Kovan hawker centre is very low, but these jokers charge you $3 for one plate of char siew rice and give you only about 6-8 thin slices of char siew. Even the sauce they also damn stingy.

 

As for your display pic... [laugh]

 

Just don't patronise these stalls, make them out of business.

Nowadays I don't even go to KPT, KF or FR, I would give my business to the hawkers that charge reasonable prices so that they can continue their business model by charging cheap food. Benefits everyone.

 

Drop by Kopitiam Square opposite Compass Point and see the number of empty stalls.

Can imagine how much the Kopitiam management is bleeding every month, but serves them right.

Like that later there will be 101 twists as no one can verify the packaging is indeed from the cookhouse.

I remember when they initially opened, they were quite arragont and told a market stallholder to f off after some errands in rents.

This is despite the stallholder sinkink a large sum of money into the business and asked for a few more months grace.

Not true. Heartland hawker centre rentals are much cheaper. Should be for every plate about $.50-$1. CBD area maybe different story lah.
