That's why some rich people's $$ easy to earn lol.

unfortunately most urbane women fall into this category as well. including almost all sinkie females born after 1985.

thats why hard to satisfy them when going out for dates. minimum spend per date is one-third to half of my day's salary

AM know how to appreciate laksa meh?

They got watch YouTube also lar.. and Gordon Ramsay did come here and lost to Katong Laksa mar lol...

So many Tourist Youtubers come here die die sure eat Laksa one...

 

[ToonBlue]

Go there chop carrot head lol

 

[radish]

angmoh price is like this. considered normal cafe price at palo alto.

 

[BlackWing1977]

Maybe all the street food in USA is this kind of price one?

I think you go to their diner eat one big plate of their typical american breakfast with pancake, eggs, bacons.. probably still cheaper than this.. while the same breakfast come to Singapore automatically become atas food while it is like their Bak Chor Mee to US people..

Same right. Food of foreign origin come to sg also more expensive until it becomes a norm then slowly it will become cheaper.

Sg food to overseas also will be the same what

that's why i facepalm when ever i heard about Sg tourist go overseas and kanna chop carrot to jiak our local food there.

If work overseas for a long time then pay that amount of money to jiak i think actually still ok ish. But still the feeling of kanna chop carrot will be there one especially when you know back home it costs 5 times less lol.

But no need to be so hard up on life lar. Those tourists just wanna have fun and if they have a good time eating local food overseas then good for them and be happy for them.

That one damn stupid lor... you ownself cook pasta how much only??

Unless it is some special one like black squid ink pasta.. or some truffle pasta.. or else not worth one lar... most of time outside sell pasta the main value is the ingredient.. disconnect from the taste of the pasta one.. like lobster.. they put on top to show you... but the pasta itself really got lobster taste or not... unless it is by some chef in hotel.. then maybe..

Then same lor. Their cheap stuff come here become expensive food, our cheap stuff go there become expensive food also

Hello, outside AMDK food is also v expensive. Obviously u never been to western countries.

The ang mo don't eat out because eating out is v expensive for them.

U think they are like us? Everyday eat out with cheap food?

To eat out in western countries, one person can cost US$50 easily in one meal.

To them, Killiney is cheap liao.

That's why I say we are lucky in Singapore that our food is cheap.

Depends on who you compare with.
Within Asia, our food is comparable or expensive.
