Some hawker business are affected - dynamite - 17-02-2023

Yesterday I paid a total $9 for dinner. One curry noodle and one fish ball noodle. The chicken meat in the curry noodle is overnight chicken meat. The fish and meat ball become half the size of last time.

My colleague bought fruit juice in that area for $13.60

If you are working still have monthly income ,it's still not so bad.

If entirely not working unemployed or retired seniors  it will be challenging. 

Just now, I bought from CCP one meat ball, one cabbage veg and tau kwa with leek = $4.70.
NO RICE.

Not working best cook at home. That time I pull molar teeth MC 5 days. Buy ntuc vermicelli 1 pack 1.15 alot can 4-5 meals. Buy China cabbage about 2 also eat 4-5 meals. Eggs depend as no offer so never buy. Add in seasoning which can cook even more meals. Then I buy 1 pack of 30 frozen fishball eat 4-5 meals. So I think one month 1k below can hit and got spare. Or eat porridge with soy sauce another meal again.

Agree sometimes too tired to cook. but if cook,  rice, vege and meat together in rice cooker... easy and fuss free. Can mix and match ingredients.

I find fishball noodles easiest to self cook. Only is how to get fresh fishball that is key. Lor mee, laksa all big job if own cook.

That is the 30 fishball I mention in earlier post BoBo brand ok taste. I cut a small opening to squeeze 5 out for each meal then put back fridge. So 30 balls last me 6 meals very worth.

3 fishballs good enough for me liao lah! Big Grin


RE: Some hawker business are affected - hansamu - 18-02-2023

Not big size...opened up the pack must finish all while it's still fresh.

Even keeping just overnight, it doesn't taste good.
I have experienced it many times. 

After steaming the fishballs shrink until quite small.
Can finish at one go.

Agree that is why I make a small cut just enough space for the ball to come out then rubber band close the gap put in fridge. Of cuz compared to air tight the taste is different but no choice want to last more meals is like that
