When it comes to such stalls, you need to know who are the people behind them. These are similar Cheebye kias behind them, like those durian sellers, they will hike their price aggressively and give little portion, occasionally not fresh. Once you understand these are Cheebye kias, don't buy from them again.

First off, I expect you to be concerned about nasi briyani or mutton soup given that you are not a Chinese who would eat cai png. So I won't even take umbrage at your inability to write cai png, writing chai png instead. I suppose it comes with not being able to speak Chinese...can understand....and also magnanimously FORGIVE.
Same goes for "wan shui" whatever that is supposed to be. It's a tad too difficult for non-Chinese speakers to get the second character in 万岁 sound even remotely right. We jut know that they don't mean "sleep late". 晚睡。 Right。

There are unscrupulous people in this area of work. They try to cheat because they are greedy, and of course they are dishonest...
But peepur in other jobs are not saints either. I have caught not a few peepur who bluffed about their working sexperience before. Worked in the company for 1 year two months, can write 2 years five months wor. Current salary $1800 a month, but can claim to be earning $2700 a month and now asking for $3000 a month wor.
Real story
Once I called up a candidate whose cover letter and CV was without a shadow of a doubt from someone in heaven. He was simply too good to reject. I told him on the phone to come for an interview on _____________ (day, date and time). I had found his working sexperience to be really a good fit for the position, he had the right education, and the seniority for the vacancy I have opened. And in fact, his general manager is a very good friend of mine, whom I knew for more than ten years. That was a lie.
In less than two hours, I received an email from him. He withdrew his application.

Can, why cannot? Since you are not an ethnic Chinese, we won't take umbrage.

Resorting to the use of vulgar language is a sign of defeat.
But I won't make an issue out of it.
Enjoy your chai peng.

Making personal attacks is also a sign of a loser trying to look smart.
If you really have this need to look smart, I'd strongly suggest you book mark all of SgBuffet's posts, read them, digest them, STUDY them, and do your best to write like him. At first, you may look silly (a mild word for you), but with time, you will start to look a little less stupid.
