Cockroach crawls out of container
Mothership reader Tan said that his sister had picked up the takeaway order at the Mexican food chain's Waterway Point outlet around 9pm.
Famished, the man tucked in the moment the spicy enchiladas arrived. That was until he spotted an unwelcome hitchhiker hanging out next to the pile of guacamole.
"I was eating my second nacho chip when I saw the baby cockroach. I was stunned," Tan told Mothership.
In a panic, he asked his sister to take a photo of it and shut the container immediately afterwards.
He opened the container again to take more photos as evidence, which was when the cockroach scurried out of the container and made its way across the dinner table.
Declined a complimentary meal
Tan said that he had decided to share the story with Mothership as he was disappointed that the restaurant had retracted their statement on accountability in a previous complaint about food safety.
GYG was in the spotlight last year after one customer bit into a 35mm-long piece of metal in GYG taco and experienced stomachache, nausea, heartburn and gastric attacks for a week.
The food chain had offered to compensate the customer S$2,000, provided he signed a non-disclosure agreement about the incident.
The customer reported the incident to SFA, which found other lapses in safety and hygiene at GYG's Tanjong Katong outlet.
