$6.50 'Economical' Rice @ SGH

"We asked why it was so expensive and the cashier said, 'Oh, my colleague didn't tell you about the price just now? You should have ordered rice, it wouldn't be as expensive.'

"So we decided to add rice but the auntie claimed there was no space on the plate!!

IN thailand, when i order a plate of fried rice ( without meat, of course) and requested for some rice crackers added to it as i saw on the promotional banner.

After some explanation by the smiling polite Thai stall holder, i realise that the rice crackers is for another dish. I show a sign of disappointment and mai pen rai.( nevermind)

In the end the tall holder smile and offer me the rice cracker for free. I thank her gladly for her nice gesture which is made out from her independent and flexible thinking without following the rules blindly but place more emphasis on human relationship and happiness between human being.

I left and holding my vegetarian fried rice and rice crackers with a smile on my face and it is just another great day in the land of smile and looking forward to interact with more true , blue human beings.

I feel so lucky. :-)
 
the thais are among the most friendly and gracious people on earth...but if you rub them or insult them too much...they'll not hesitate to finish you off completely with complete abandon...smile smile smile all the time...but you just never know what's inside the feelings...right?
 
all the Hospitals in singapore ate charging high price for the food in the kopeediam.... my dad had been in NUH for almost 9 months, i cant recall how much i had spend on lunch & dinner.. sometime, i will just do some friedrice for my meal.. even in TTSH. it also so expensive....

Oh no, The Thais are really nice. But if you display any sinkie behavior, of course they will finish you off, any quality humans will finish off any sinkie behavior.

When you are unsinkified, you do not have to care if a person is sincere to you or not, only a sinkie who has full of guilt will care of such things.

But anyway, GOod luck to you in dealing your overprice food in sinkieland.. and happy battling with the stall holders WAHAHHAHA!!!
 
sinkee behaviour is a bloody insult to our great nation....everything also complains....but it think most singaporeans are not more civilised and more enlightened after they have travelled overseas, worked overseas and stayed overseas...singaporeans need to be more gracious and more happier!!! don't always show a long tulan face....

i went to bugis junction yesterday...went to a shop...the singaporean salesgirl was indifferent, couldn't be bothered,chatted with her colleague and didn't give a damned to her customer...if i'm the boss i'll sacked her...long fartup face!

then i went to another shop...wow lau! a pretty young girl came and escorted me..she spoke good english and she told she is from china...working part-time...excellent service, full of pretty smile, bright eyes, good make up and very polite and gracious....i couldn't resist and bought a shirt from her shop...you see!!! the difference!!!

if singaporeans don't progress and don't change their behaviour and attitude, they will soon be replaced by more gracious people....don't blame FTs...

Great nation?? i would not even raise a thought for that. when did the word great nation has any linked with sinkieland.

It can only be great when the people living in that land dare to raise up against their govt if they are bullied.

Economical rice stall at SGH charges me $6.50 instead of $4.80 stated on menu

sgh_foodcourt_charges_me_650_instead_of_480_on_menu-thumbnail.jpg

Workers at the economic rice stall in SGH are extremely unreasonable, says STOMPer Shao Hong, who says he was overcharged for a plate of three vegetable dishes and one portion of fish.

Although the menu at the Singapore General Hospital foodcourt stated that a plate of rice with three vegetable dishes and one meat dish cost $4.80, he was charged $6.50 for the same combination of food without any rice.

The stall holders insisted that they had told him and his friend about the price difference but Shao Hong says that they did not.

Upon learning about the difference in price, they wanted to add rice to their plates but was told that it was too late as the plate was already full.

In an email dated December 21, an angry Shao Hong says:

"My friend and I were at Kopitiam @ SGH this afternoon.

"We opted for three vegetable and one fish (normal sweet and sour fish) without rice and were charged a ridiculous $6.50 each!

"What a rip off!!

"It was clearly stated on the menu that Three vegtable and one meat portion with rice costs $4.80.

"We asked why it was so expensive and the cashier said, 'Oh, my colleague didn't tell you about the price just now? You should have ordered rice, it wouldn't be as expensive.'

"So we decided to add rice but the auntie claimed there was no space on the plate!!

"Still in shock and not knowing want to do, we paid for it.

"When we went to clarify again, they insisted they told us about the price. The auntie was so rude! Even the two helpers told us they had informed us but they really didn't!

"Please don't eat there.

"A few of my friends encountered the same thing too! "

Now it has become a JOKE economical rice??? does these hawkers at the food court knows the menaing economical?? means cheap or cheaper. WTF Hospital food court some more, eat already get heart attack re-admit again? is it?
 
Stomper is not overcharged. The order is without rice so the portions of vegetables and meat will be more (presumably). If the order comes with rice, the rice takes up a bigger portion of the plate and thus, should costs less.


Yeah stomper is not over charged but is underpaid as a collar worker !

That is why complaining whole time .
