Noticed some hawkers one by one gone - [[ForeverAlone]] - 07-03-2023

due to HIGH RENTAL

RE: Noticed some hawkers one by one gone - sclim - 08-03-2023

think no enough business. with prices raise 30% it should be more then enough to cover rental raise.
problem is some skill no good. good one gone already. so the food taste different from old timer.

Most of the old time hawkers have left the industry over the last two decades. That's why hawker food has gone way downhill with factory sourced ingredients and lousy cooks. I much rather head over to Thailand and Malaysia to get proper street food fixes.

My cai png stall raise pricing two times in 6 mths, what do you think?

RE: Noticed some hawkers one by one gone - Notdumb - 08-03-2023

More likely due to selling shit food lah. If its rentals then why others still around.
Jurong got 1 famous wanton noodle from famous HK chef....I went to try and it really tasted like shit! Less than 1 year gone liao.
I even posted the stall and food here which I said its farkup noodles.

Yes those were days I remember fondly..........where the hawker assistant bring the cooked food to you, and clear the table after you have eaten.  Now all things are self-service, and it had become more expensive these days............... Big Grin

Wrong. It's due to old age and nobofy to take over.

High rental is never a problem for those who cook well, have good business and can pass the cost to the consumers.  Those who cannot cook well, there is no loss to the country if they close down. Rolleyes

Quite true too, only those that can cook tastier food will thrive........................ Big Grin

something more serious is happening
the plandemic takes its toll.
Below the surface they can try but futile.
They got spike-proteins. This alone pull out lots of oxygen
apart from the mask.
They are idiots unlike singlion:
coronavirus causing covid-19 does not exist.
chonTU-ed tio-Toxed
even singlion takes half a teaspoon of baking soda to reduce the acidity of the fluids surrounding the cells.

RE: Noticed some hawkers one by one gone - Oyk - 08-03-2023

Is there a possibility to introduce AI and robots into hawker centres and food courts?

1. You get a seat.

2. Open an App. Key in your seat number, choose your food, quantity, more chilli, less sweet, more vinegar, whatever you want to customise.

3. A robot will fry your char kway teow instead of an ah tiong (they are now see cooking our hawker food already).

4. Another robot will bring your food to you.

5. After you've finished eating, you click the button "jin ho jiak", and another robot will come and collect the dishes and wipe the table.

There are many peepur who think that selling food is very lucrative because they saw those popular ones having long queues.

They opened one stall, and tried their luck.  And failed.  A lot opened and closed.

That bbfa (Forevergay) is lamenting the closures of these stalls which cmi. Rolleyes

A lot of jhks who can cook left their motherland to work in Spore because they earn 1 x 3 here.

This is why you can see many Malays cooking Chinese food in Malaysia.

Here, although most of our restaurant cooks are from Msia, and practically all our cai png cooks are from there.....plus many more cooking other hawker foods (烧腊 is one obvious example). we still don't have enough.  So now there are tiongs cooking our bak chor mee, char kway teow.  Once I eve saw a pinay blanching bak chor mee.  She wouldn't understand you if you want to have more bak you pok.  Speak English (or Tagalog if you can)

There are also many tiongs cooking other fake international food. I have seen them cooking fake Japanese and Korean food in food courts.
