It is a given that we should treat our local restaurants with the respect they deserve for the service they bring us. A restaurant in Paya Lebar, however, experienced the very opposite of this cardinal rule.
According to Duckland at Paya Lebar Quarter mall (PLQ), a customer walked out without paying for his food — allegedly because the duck he received was not Irish enough for him.
He had ordered a half Roast Irish duck, which he determined with a look was not from Ireland after all. After complaining to a restaurant staff, he left without paying.
Duckland is under TungLok Group, which has since filed a police report against the customer. They also warn all dining establishments to keep a lookout for him.

After some back-and-forth with the manager, the customer reportedly packed up his belongings and vacated the premises. He also did not pay for the uneaten Roast Irish Duck.

In the meantime, we urge all patrons to treat dining staff with respect. Definitely do not duck the responsibility of forking out cash for your food.
