He can choose not to order and eat. Why didn't he check the price first?

I also think it is very expensive,,, total not worth it also.

You want cheap go to hawker ....no need to sabo other people business

The curry is not just curry sauce but comes with mutton ..but still much more expensive than outside.

Why buy first then complain? Low class ses.

another cheapstakes. buy frozen prata and self fried at home!

I think he heard wrongly. It should be $5.40 iso $15.40. He overpaid by $10.

About time NEA/ Grace Foo set the law to put prices on the board.

Even in food courts, the cashier can count wrongly and over-charge.  My friend kena at Raffles City and was over- charged $2.40 for cai- png.

Nobody will be happy if the price charged is unreasonable.
At most not exceeding $7 given it is at a food court.

Day light robbery indeed.

Here is a photo of the restaurant. The price and menu is outside. If he does not like the price he should not have gone in.

This complaint is not valid. Problem could he can't read English.

the prata looks quite big and the curry sauce looks more than normal

Simple lah, got 1 time no 2 times or .... that shop can close shop liow

Prata got extra salty from flipping?

why he masuk restaurant to makan prata? mutton curry egg prata X2 somemore?

If the stall overcharges without showing the prices , My thinking is we will be allowed to ask the stallholders to take back what you've ordered. (willing sellers willing buyers)

Ah neh is they see u r Chinese, they'll charge very expensive. Better siam all ah neh restaurants.

eating prata too often is very bad for your health. It's the ghee

The video made me crave for prata so I decided to cycle 10km today to a branch of Mr. Prata ...to order the same dish..

Here is what it cost at Air  conditioned Mr Prata Restaurant.




$15 is a bit expensive.

At $15 for two egg prata and mutton curry with Kopi should not cost more than $10..

Yes, the price list is there, but, what are the listed prices? Do the prices tally with what the customer had posted?

at hawker center likely
2x egg prata 1.8x2 = 3.6
tea c 1.3 = 1.3
mutton curry big = 5
total = 9.9
that is what i will pay for the meal.

but then that is a restaurant. so restaurant price one pay.
soon hawker price will also raise with all the covid disrruptions as business
risk is higher. hawker also need to charge more to recover some cost.

Something not right. Pull from the internet. It is likely the meat inside the curry.

Once I saw my India tenant come back he bought some indian food from that indian restuarant and he said he paid x dollars for it.

Next few days I went to that same indian restaurant to buy the exact same item that my india tenant bought from that indian shop but that indian shopowner charged more expensive for the exact same item.

I am chinese.

My tenant is a india-indian S pass holder working in an office job.

That shopowner is a local-indian, he is not india-indian

This is also called racism and Indian privilege?

she never read the menu.

curry chicken $8.00
egg prata $2.50 x 2 = $5.00
tea $2

Not foodcourt. It is a restaurant.

He should know the price before ordering. Foodcourt should be about $8-9. 

Cheapskate lah.

some merchants charged what they can charged. maybe the discount was only given to the s-pass holder as indian merchant feel that is what he can afford to pay. to entice him to come back.
