The menu price is however different from the price i have to foot tho,my guess is the price on menu isnt tax inclusive.
When I used to roam Joo Chiat's pubs & ktvs, long hair dictionaries are easily available for translation.

I dont know if you still remember, we went for a movie at Harbour Bay Mall once before, few years back, you asked the male cashier why their officially online say CGV is suppose to screen A movie but when we turn up at the theater, there was no A movie screening at all? You gave that cashier a piece of your mind and he is still smiling at us "hypocritically".

That kind of smile really scare me and that kind of situation might have tick me off if i am in Singapore. Just imagine, i am launching a verbal complain to the guy in charge how come A movie is post on CGV website but yet no such titled movie was screening and the person whom i talked to actually smiled so very happily at me apologizing.

Anyway,i dont see that same guy working there anymore.
Totally remember that incident.

I did the same thing to a waitress at Richeese. Been queuing for 15 mins and she chose to serve an Indonesian who just wanted to buy mineral water. I gave her a piece of my mind. After that incident, my girl always volunteer to help place orders, afraid that I'll get into trouble with the locals.

I'm doing it the offline way now. Having my girls extended family do the sales and customer service while I just mark up a bit. Buying from Batam can't mark up too much if have "distributors".

Next, looking into buying direct from China.
