With the prices of goods skyrocketing in many countries, it’s time we think about how much we are willing to spend on certain things, including when we dine out. Is the food we eat worth the price?

A customer at a food court in Singapore was recently baffled by the price of his fish soup, which cost him SGD5 (approximately RM17.40). The fish soup was served in a bowl but the key lies in the fish slices – which came ONLY in 3 small pieces.

The surprised customer then took a picture of that portion and shared it on his social media.

The food court is located inside a hospital in Singapore.

According to a statement by the food vendor, the staff of the said restaurant had informed the customer in advance about the portion of the fish soup.

“The customer was told that the portion would be small, to which the customer acknowledged and agreed to purchase.”

The staff also told the customer that the high price was due to the high rent at the premises.

The management also left a comment on the customer’s post to apologise, saying they would come up with an appropriate solution for the matter.

What do you think of the price? Is it justified by the high rent?
