The average cost of a plate of chicken rice was $4.15 in 2023, up from $3.40 in 2019, a new study found.

Hawker food prices rose by 6.1% last year but some cost pressures, such as the price of raw food ingredients, are easing. https://str.sg/kmiG

Apart from the sharp price increase, the portions keep getting smaller, the chicken keeps getting flattened more by the hawker's cleaver and the cucumbers keep propping up the meat on top for volume.
