Customer shocked by $8 sotong in rojak, but stall dishes out the full picture

[Atilas]

this is not sotong (squid), this is cuttlefish

In Malay, both are also called sotong.

Really tio chopped gaogao , thats notch even a sotong (squid) but a mere cuttlefish where this kind they oways make those cuttlefish titbits/snacks

Neway that so-called "famous" lojak nothing special and yet ex af to moi , very nong neber bai from them anymore

Dunno why can still attract sho many ppl bai from them

Famous expensive Indian rojak opposite 10KKJ hub...
Their mee goreng nasi goreng also expensive.

Go to Bedok Central hawker, gotch mamak stall there sell their goreng stuffs "almost" same taste like that Mabrok huan

One of their boss-cum-employee used to work at Mabrook, think he manage learn or kope the "recipe" of the gorengs and then do his own stall

Iirc, their nasi goreng mee goreng all that at least a dollah cheaper than mabrok

Just let Singapore inflate till the ballon burst, new Citizen start flowing out, people start migrating, less and less marriages and less and less babies being born. Now everyone just inflate price to earn max profits, everything is spiralling out of control all don't care. We all know price will eventually increase over the years, but the rate at which it is rising is just pure madness. Worst is shrinkflation price increase while at the same time portion reduces.

In response to a Stomp query, Al Mahboob Rojak said: "We appreciate the feedback and the opportunity to clarify.

"Seafood items such as sotong are considered premium dishes at Al Mahboob, prepared using fresh, quality ingredients.

Can anyone show me hawker got say they using unfresh and low quality ingredients?

 

[fortunehunter]

When people complain expensive they will say using fresh ingredients.
How fresh is fresh? Right from the sea or live sotong?

 

[Joseph12]

Ya...

Sign said squid and it's squid price but they served cuttlefish

But they only talked some shite about how good it is
