$6 for rice with 4 small pieces of chicken at Benoi Sector canteen

[The_King]

 

You might think food prices would be cheaper at industrial areas in the far-end of Singapore.

However, that was not the case for Stomper Dennis, who was charged $6 for a meal at a canteen in Jurong.

Dennis said he bought a takeaway meal of rice with fried chicken from an Indian food stall at Mapletree Benoi Logistics Hub's canteen in Benoi Sector on Tuesday (Oct 26).

He paid $6 and was appalled when he opened the packet of rice afterwards.

Dennis told Stomp: "I bought Indian food at 8082 Cafeteria yesterday evening. I asked for only fried chicken with plain rice and was charged $6.

"Even more surprising was how there were only four small pieces of dry-looking fried chicken.

"This is my second time buying from the stall. The previous time, I ordered rice with the same fried chicken and another vegetable dish, which also cost $6.

"Hence I thought that if I ordered only chicken, it should be cheaper. However, I was charged the same price so I thought they would at least give me more pieces of chicken. But it was just four small pieces.

"I didn't manage to ask the stall about the price because I genuinely thought there would be more chicken.

"It was not until later when I opened the packet and saw only four small pieces of chicken for this CRAZY PRICE!"

i feel most indian shops, especially indian muslim ones, dont follow or remember their own price list. sometimes they sell cheaper too

Indian food can be difficult to cook so I understand if expensive

Indian Muslim food mostly fried stuff, I feel then overpriced

Malay food super overpriced but can find affordable ones in heartland area. I like to eat malay food at TPY and Whampoa, affordable stuff

correct no consistency

 

once i bought from this biriyani shop. wah so much rice, one packet enough for my wife and i

the next time i bought one packet then just add meat, end up little rice lol. 

few shops, any delicacy, i notice closer to closing time will give more rice or noodles
