STOMPer Sandra was appalled when the manager of an Old Town White Coffee outlet decided to charge her $1 for adding extra sambal chilli to her nasi lemak. She wonders if chilli really costs so much these days.

The STOMPer said:

"I had dinner at Old Town White Coffee's newly opened outlet at Far East Plaza.

"I ordered nasi lemak and thought that I had been given quite little sambal chilli, so I requested for more.

"After a while, the manager told me that if I wanted more sambal chilli, there would be a charge of $1!

"Is chilli really that expensive nowadays that they need to charge a dollar for more chilli?

"I think its kind of atrocious.

"I will never patronise them anymore because in my opinion, they're earning money in a way that is a little unacceptable."

First of all, the sellers need to give a reasonable amount of chilli to go with the food. And if they dare to charge for the chilli, then their shop should not be patronised. Teach them a lesson lor.

xYanamai . The Nasi Lemak's cost should factor in the CHILLI OR even Extra chilli's cost. 1 BUCK for chilli? Might as well charge me for clean cutlery.. total bullshit. Boycott that place .. And another point.. If lets say they charge me 1 buck for extra chilli. if i ask for No Chilli. can they refund that 1 dollar to me.. FOS
