Ownself want to order drink meal without asking for the price, don't complain when the food is served to you. Dun have the pocket size, don't act big hole.

Starbuxx is known to be a branded coffee chain with a nice environment for people to meet and enjoy their coffee. People who walk in there knows they have to pay a premium. Sugarcane is just another sugar cane drink at the hawker center. There is no brand value or environment to talk about.

Omelette 17 bucks. Really not worth. Of course didn't order these items and went for rice with meats instead. Yup. Totally agree.
