So many ppl with reading problems in this thread

Haha article already clearly said that it is possible to be allergic to normal prawn and not tiger prawn, and that the restaurant has specifically said the prawn is tiger prawn on the menu.

The guy should sue the restaurant. Sure win case.

Haiz, i myself also have fallen victim before. Yang that time i ordered thaiger from craglist…turned out its thaiboi.

Use normal grey prawns and draw some lines across the body with marker to make them look like Tiger prawns can le,

 

[CaptchaCheebeh]

Err... That's individuals body's conditions right? Nothing to do with Singapore or restaurants.

Basically food standards in SG are declining. Not yet at the shithole India or Malaysia streetfood standards yet, but getting there.

Some people with stronger bodies can tolerate the damage, but not my weak bbfa body.

Interesting, didn't know prawn allergy can be species specific

Fresh water prawn and sea prawn diff

Tiger prawn belong to sea prawn

 

[Hakuna Matata]

A prawn is still a prawn. *Tiger* chases away the allergies?

 

[XcoVar]

Probably the prawns not fresh. I'll get hives when that happens.

 

[doppypoppy]

I am allergic to abalone but not when it is an organ

apparently the proteins which causes allergy are different in different species of prawns and shell fishes
