Still is one of the worst paid job in singapore. What you are paying is mainly the rental of the place and food cost. <br /><br />Who wouldn't want to serve cheaper food so more customer would try? FIY a simple coffeeshop stall 3-5k, foodcourt can reach up to 10k. If a hawker selling chicken rice at $2 or $3 how many plate he will need to sell to cover the rent then cover the food and operational cost?TriathlonChefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02118485454448548956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-76270651181063050092011-12-11T15:35:17.116+08:002011-12-11T15:35:17.116+08:00I suspect the pricing is only at that particular I...I suspect the pricing is only at that particular ION outlet. The prices vary according to locations. <br /><br />They didn't have prices of beverages up on the menu boards (well, none I could find). I had actually fished out S$2.50, thinking that for sure I would get change back. *gulp* I had fork out more!Camemberuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12606864987474618179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-56041895911466271232011-12-11T14:14:46.140+08:002011-12-11T14:14:46.140+08:00Gee..I did not know a small coke is $2.70.

You make an excellent point which many, if not most Singaporean restauranteurs fail to understand. <br /><br />If the price is too high, the customers don't buy, the food spoils and they end up feeding it to their employees or throwing out the food. Walk around Suntec's restaurant row any Monday through Thursday, and look at all those empty restaurants, including Burger King. The only restaurant running full are the food courts and McDonalds selling S$5 meals.<br /><br />In the US, a small coke in any fastfood restaurant is US$1.25; the cashier gives you an empty paper cup and it is freefill. In the US, the big burgers (whopper, Big Mac, Carls Jr. Famous Star) are US$2.25 max and most BK or McD are running full. Similar to Singapore, the rent is astronomic in San Francisco, or NY City, but the price of the burger is pretty much the same.<br /><br />The Singapore BK franchisee must have his head up his a**.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
