Carbon82 Moderator April 7, 2021 Share April 7, 2021 Wife bought this fish soup from a cafe called Fish and Kopi at Chai Chee Biz Park. Nothing special but a higher price ($6/set). 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't queue for such stores. A good hawker will know and stop the queue past a certain limit. They will stop cooking (or the assistant) will ask everyone in the queue and tally the plates.

Carbon82 Moderator April 7, 2021 Share April 7, 2021 I am late to the party. Regarding trained by wife to eat fish with bone, I am one of them (and I always thought I am the only one... ) Had some bad experiences in my younger days with fish bone piecing into my gum causing it to swell for a few days, and even swallowed small bones countless times. Although I like fish but I am lousy with eating the whole fish (I only can handle sardine and those crispy kun Ning from Nasi Lemak). Things changed after I got married, and wife said how can I don't know how to enjoy a whole fish. So was "forced" a few time (with careful guidance by wife... wah lau 好丢脸), and started to eat fish head and finally the stomach. But still fish eyes is a no go for me. I guess my mum must be nagging behind my back: 老娘教你这么多年都学不会,老婆逼你几个月就会。。。🙂 3 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lala81 Hypersonic April 7, 2021 Share April 7, 2021 Yup it's really very easy for someone to count esp for hokkien mee where u can only cook one wok at a time and the number of plates u serve is right around there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they do; but a few of us prefer to have some of the slices thinner than what QB offers to cater to young kids - better have the center cook through. In addition, it is also cheaper to buy whole slab uncut. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, just take the extra steps to count how many customers, or each customer planning to get how many servings, tally up and draw the line. Queue so long then told no more = bad customer experience They should at least write you a (credit) note, entitle you to a free serving the next time you drop by. Easy thing like this also don't know how to do. Haiz .. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I dun stay in Hougang Ave 4 also. hahahah Haiz .. that's why .. bad customer service. There was once I ordered a slice of cake to go from an Italian restaurant. It was the last slice on the cake board in the display fridge, slightly after lunch time. When I reached home and had it for tea-break about an hour later, found that it was sour. Thought to myself ... (&@)$(#() .. waste money *&@#$)#( The slice not cheap. So I drove back and told the manager about it. He was apologetic and promptly took out a new cake from the kitchen and cut the first slice from it to replace. He also gave me a free slice of their special cake of the day. I declined at first (of course I act act one lah), but he insisted. 😅 So, angry customer became happy customer. Bad experience became positive experience. Will I go back again ? Definitely!? Will I buy last slice on the cake board .. probably not 😁 ↡ Advertisement 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
