Jamesc Hypersonic February 6, 2023 Share February 6, 2023 Hope your colleague don't have a work trip to Thailand. He will complain SG food so ex. 3 hours ago, Heartlander said: During a recent work trip to Canberra, my colleague swear to never complain that food is ex in Singapore. Over there a plate of fried rice easily AUD18. Very very difficult to get a meal for less than AUD10. Even value meals in those fast food restaurants also easily AUD12, and they do not have kopitiam stalls serving mixed vege rice at $4 to $5. I am not condoning any unreasonable price hike, but comparing to other countries we are very fortunate as is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I been to Bangkok and a mountainous resort there just before Covid hit us, really not comparable to over here in terms of living quality. More fair to compare to developed places. Heard that Bangkok is no longer as cheap as before in recent months due to inflation that went out of control, even catching up with us on certain aspects like food and shopping. Anyway I am not here to win any arguments lah, just to remind that our food is actually quite cheap that's all. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My regular fishball noodle stall that i eat increased another $0.50. Few months ago already increased $0.50. What to do, same same also just had fishball noodle today for dinner, last year was $3 then increase to $3.5 now is $4. For me just keep it simple - those with reasonable price jiak, if anyhow charge avoid, expensive feel not as worth the price jiak less or long long jiak one time. 🤣 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, ang mo land high food price, salary also have to be on par to strike a balance or else how they can afford? 😉 https://www.asiaone.com/singapore/hawker-opens-stall-selling-26-prawn-noodles-new-york-says-he-has-pay-kitchen-assistant Hawker opens stall selling $26 prawn noodles in New York, says he has to pay kitchen assistant $7,000 salary 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
