Then we ask uncle how much, wha liew, the uncle tell us $70+
Of course we blur la, then we dulan ask uncle how he count one.
Then he tell us, one whole chicken is $26 correct. But WTF ONE PLATE OF GAILAN IS $35.

This is temporary. Because of recent heavy rain, supplies have plunged.

Stomper is a youngster out of touch with reality

Did not bother to ask, then post on web to slime a respected establishment

Youngsters these days are like that

That's why I keep saying that we need to import high quality talent from PRC.

Unfortunately we are restricted by quota. We don't mind paying a bit of levy, but not too much. But the quota is really stifling

That guy is just being punished for eating meat and if he just order the veggies, he will be spared.

Just bought fresh kailan from the market. $1.20 for a bag of about 15 stocks, from China and Malaysia's is cheaper.

Oh Ya, maybe those kailan served were home grown with special fertiliser.

Nothing so special about YET CON, the resturant had seen better days, ate there before. Well, for the old world charm of a Hainanese resturant, if you want the ambience, the chicken rice these days are so-so, so are the ala carte food on the menu.

I prefer a long gone coffee shop not far from here, along new Bridge Rd., indirect opposite the New Library..that sells a yummy chicken rice..

I do not believe the kailan cost $36..even at Pow Sin in Serangoon Gardens or anywhere don't cost much..maybe they were charges RM36.00...:biggrin:

You mean the resturant grow their own veggies, using ORGANIC fertilisers? like they collect their pee & dry their poos, and recycle them by adding it to the growing veggies?:biggrin:
