Isn't $8 too much to pay for three pieces of sotong, stingray, egg and rice?

Stomp contributor kenasting was surprised to be charged $8 for three pieces of sotong, a fine piece of stingray, an egg and rice.

According to the Stomp contributor, it is too expensive for coffeeshop food.

The Stomp contributor said:

"Wow... I paid $8 for three pieces of sotong and a finely sliced piece of stingray.

"I bought this from L.A. Seafood at Blk 848, Yishun Street 81.

"It is kind of expensive for coffeeshop food."

Median take-home pay is $1700 ...alamak, how can afford this? Must only order vegi and luncheon meat to eat affordable economy rice.

Thank you PAP for making our lives so miserable.

That is one thing good about living in Australia. The white trash does not know what to do with stingray. So, I get free stingrays every now and then.

Stingray is a cheap fish.

The question is why is cheap food no longer cheap?

That explains why you are so happy with the PAP. Hasn't price of anchovies gone up too?
