Prawn noodles is prawn noodles indeed...
-
Went to order a bowl of prawn noodles....at food court...
The prawn noodles by itself , comes with garnish....the sliced fishcakes and chicken meat were so little... compared to the noodles which were in abundance...
Even the damn miserable cooked prawn is sliced into 2 in the middle...
so pathetic...
What is happening to SG...food in foodcourts getting lesser in proportion...
and the price increasing....wt.f....
I remember i was able to eat $1.6 porridge at jurong east hawker center...
3 years ago...today.. -
tell where you ate it? next time me avoid there~

Guess lah....Originally posted by Danisdead101times:tell where you ate it? next time me avoid there~
anyway i ended up eating noodles with soup....after i finished the "prawn"
and the "ingredients"
so pathetic....imagine not enuf other "ingredients" to go with your noodles...after u finished the some amount of noodles..
so left with the usually dark coloured "prawn soup base".... -
Another 1 i must complain...
Paragon's Tori-Q....
arguably the cheapest place for food...about $5 for a normal dinner meal..
Don't even have a good place to sit down...
Then as for some Billabong, GUESS products....when you purchase it...
it makes you really angry...
You paid over $60.. or even $100 for a t-shirt....look at the tab near the collar and you see Made-In-China...what is happening in this world....
Not to look down on the place where my grand-dad came from....
But nowadays business has become so focused on profits
that it has forgotten about customer satisfaction... -
whats wrong with made in China? if the shirt is good quality, who cares?Originally posted by SMAPLionHeart:Another 1 i must complain...

If it is made elsewhere, it might be twice the price...

Anyways, prawn noodle here cost C$7.99+15% tax. There are half a hard boiled egg, two shrimps and some chicken pieces....no, corrections, slivers and two pieces of tau pok. So, you got a better deal, right?

Don't buy according to brand.Buy according to design and reliability.Gap shirts are quite alrite..those surf brands these days are atrocious.Originally posted by SMAPLionHeart:My brown jacket ive bought for 125 sgd has 1 button falling off....

Supposingly it is produced in a developed country (whichever you prefer), labour cost can be twice as high (or even higher) then china (no i'm not saying china is cheapOriginally posted by SMAPLionHeart:I rather choose quality durable clothings...more then twice the price i don't mind...
). For the same materials used (which also means same quality), China would be a better choice to make the products that you wear... -
Perhaps , but the other thing is that....When the labour cost is cheap , it should be passed on back to the consumers... =)Originally posted by WoShiNoobie:Supposingly it is produced in a developed country (whichever you prefer), labour cost can be twice as high (or even higher) then china (no i'm not saying china is cheap ).

Anyone encountered times whereby you paid so much for a food and u get small helpings?
Especially those european french restaurants...
only focusing on aesthetics and how the food looks like..

I hate to say this , but when it comes to quality stuffs, i don't mind shedding hundreds of dollars for it...
ive spent over thousands of dollars on eyewears...
all quality ones... no doubt , i did encounter with some shops...purposely overchaging etc...for lousy eyewear...(Don't want to mention any names)
A real incident i can relate to is when i was at a LVL 3 shades shop at Heeren..
selling shades only ..
(If you all are smart, you all will know which shop it is )
i purchased this cool-looking polarized shades for $47...
The incident that happened afterwards made me dismayed...
A few months after i used it..i found out that it was not sweat resistant....
The earstems grew mouldy and greenish in colour...
Another 1 was when i purchased a LJK sunglasses for above $50...
The eyewear was initially good and useful at first....
after that it wear and tear....paint coming out....dents inside the eyewear...
such a pathetic condition....rapidly worn...down...
I believe all of these shades are not properly manufactured etc..
After i started using quality products , manufactured by quality companies...
i found out that ! Hey ! i can actually do more with these products!
After that....i stopped purchasing products which are made-in-china other then apparel and minor stuffs...
Another time when i had this cool yellow billabong sling bag...
i think bought for 40 bucks...
when i used to carry heavy books..the snaps eventually snapped off......
no joke -
If you asked me, only a cockster would eat prawn mee at a food court, especially in Singapore.

then why complain about the prawn noodles? go eat the east coast prawn noodles. $5 a bowl, guarantee good quality.Originally posted by SMAPLionHeart:I rather choose quality durable clothings...more then twice the price i don't mind... -

Shit. There is always something to bitch about....
I don't hear people bitching when getting a pay raise, bonus or the profit they made when selling their HDB flats. To quote a chinese saying, "the wool comes from the sheep".
Can't get the same pay if you live and do the same work in Indonesia, Anogla, Norway or Holland (where tax rates goes up to 55%) ....... -
You can certainly get more in Norway. The living expenses are high as well, but that's besides the point.Originally posted by pacman1188:Shit. There is always something to bitch about....

you're either blind.. stupid.. have poor sense of choice.. i have no other words or phrases to describe you.. i am still using a billabong bag that i bought 5 years ago.. it is still in average condition, the zips and everything are fine, just that the cloth around it is a bit tattered as i zipped ONTO the cloth.. if not, it would be a decent bag. there are more examples but im just lazy to list them out as it would be a waste of time
