It’s understandable that dining in fine-dining restaurant, metropolitan like Tokyo, tourist’s spot like Genting Highland will be expensive. But who can believe a noodle soup in a small town can cost more than RM50?!
A netizen took social media to share that she ordered a Patin noodle soup in a coffee shop in Sarikei, Sarawak and never believe her eyes as it costs her RM60!
The post read:
I ordered a fish noodle soup in Sarikei. But, when i’m going to pay only i realised the bowl of fish noodle soup i ordered costs me RM60! The restaurant owner said the Patin fish is RM190/kg.
I’m speechless….
Because i’m the one that never ask the price before ordering.
▼ A bowl of simple Mee Hoon/ Rice Vermicelli soup, with a few slice of Patin (fish).
▼ The receipt clearly written：Mee Ikan Patin – one portion – RM60.00！
▼ Netizen A: How many slices of Ikan ( fish) Patin are you getting?
Post author: Just the few slices that you see in the picture. Ha ha..
▼ Like eating iron wire, toothache!
▼ Some wondering is it Empurau fish ( The most expensive fish in Malaysia- priced at up to RM2000/kg) :” The one i ordered is only RM9 , yours RM60?? Must be Empurau fish” , ” Maybe they cooked with Empurau fish?!”
▼ Maybe the fish is the restaurant owner’s pet, that’s why so pricey!
▼ Tell the boss you want to refund if you haven’t eat！
▼ Look at mine, soup noodle with fish ( patin) + prawn for only RM12!
▼ Some netizen said : We should go farmed Patin lah！Then sell it to the restaurant!
▼ 1Kg or Patin slices only RM10++ and this patin is selling at RM190/kg?? WTX? The boss priced it like a Cod fish is it??
▼ Some also advertised for their restaurant since the post went viral! ” Come to my shop only RM10!”, ” Come to Wonderful Laksa, you don’t need to pay so much and you can get prawn, beef, clam .. whatever also we have!”
▼ If you think the price is unreasonable, you can actually lodge a complaint to Consumer Affairs department. So the authority can look into the matter.
▼ However, some netizen also commented the price for wild patin is more expensive. ” The wild patin is very tasty, But, not sure is it the wild patin. However if they are using the more expensive fish, why they never ask whether customer Okay with it? it’s 10X of the normal price.”
I think we should ask about the price if it’s the first time we dine in or take away food from a restaurant we never been.
