There’s nothing wrong in asking for another empty plate. After all the hawker does not lose anything but may gain the gratitude of the customer. To aggravate the matter the stall holder chose to add insult. The customer has every right to cancel the order. The loser ….. the stall holder lost a customer. May be worse if word of mouth spread further by the customer.

This is true, customer have the right to ask for an empty bowl, the stall-owner is being too petty.......
