This move was meant to be announced earlier, says Mr Fong, but it was delayed in the light of the ByteDance food poisoning case on July 30. You can call his BS but the food poisoning case does not involve Putien. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More reasons to eat there. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But apparently no "smoking gun" was found, so to speak, so LL the authority just make all the relevant staff re-attend the required food handling and hygiene courses and once done, they were allowed to resume operations. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason given in the news but could be waiting till all relevant employees complete the courses as one of the conditions to lift suspension, maybe. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe all the food contamination come from the truck that send the food there. Who knows all the 小强 hiding inside. Even in the car 小强 can appear. Maybe in the truck the moment food is loaded, door closed. Army of 小强 all appear. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wind30 Turbocharged August 21 Share August 21 I like this nett price thing. Some countries restaurants need to advertise net price in their menu which make sense. When you go shopping, almost ALL prices include GST and is nett price. So why is restaurant different? so we can learn maths? 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, many times it is the process of delivering the food there that might got the food contaminated. The food is not contaminated when it was cooked in the kitchen. Always the case of how the food is handle, store and deliver after the food is cooked. Sometimes how some of those deliver guys handling the food during delivering, you see liao also can sweat. There was once when i saw the pau shop at toa payoh central, how the deliver guy unload those tray of pau from the deliver truck, it really makes me not to buy from them anymore. 😅 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mersaylee Hypersonic August 21 Share August 21 Cheap or reasonable and good, just support Expensive or unreasonable but good, just occasionally support Expensive but reasonable and good, just support only during important dates or when there's hefty discount Expensive, reasonable or not, and yet not good, just spend your money elsewhere I often got asked at restaurants..."any food allergies?" ...my reply is always this..."yah, im allergic to lousy food...especially those expensive ones." 😁 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
