Is there a fair way for hawker stalls to handle huge orders in a queue?​

General

Genuine qn.

I was queueing at a hawker stall recently during lunch peak, and the person in front ordered ~20 packets.

Ended up jamming the entire queue for a good 15–20 minutes while everyone behind just stood there. Some BTH and just left the queue.

What to your mind is the best practice/way for hawkers to handle such orders?

 

[Tragedeigh]

Dont say 20 packets. Sometimes, the person infrint order 4 to 5 packets, I jitao walk away and eat something else.

This happens quite regularly at Adam Road Food Centre. Recently, a man in the queue in front of me was directing his friend via phone to his location. To everyone's disgust, it wasn't 1 friend, but 6 who cut into the long queue to each place their orders for nasi lemak! That is plain queue cutting!

It is common for the person in front of me to order up to 10 plates/bowls. When the food is ready, his 9 friends will come from their table to collect their meals.

So lesson learnt, don't eat nasi lemak.

Many diners order 5-6 servings of food at the Penang Hawkers Buffet at York Hotel, which they can't carry. They will signal for their friends to come collect their food when served. It's 1 person queuing for 5 or 6 others.

The popular nasi lemak stall already has a long queue. If 1 person in line allows 6 friends to cut in, is it fair to the others in that already long queue?

The stall person need to manage the preparation lah. Must pack slowly for the big order and also take order from those one plate inside the queue. Cannot be order 20 then just wait until 20 packed the serve others.
