Case in point. I returned from a family holiday recently and decided to dine at Wang Cafe for lunch. It’s located on the arrival level at Terminal 1. I needed two empty bowls for my kids to share. I asked nicely, but I was abruptly told that I was only allowed to have one extra bowl.
I wondered, for a moment, what I had just heard. I mean, it’s not like I had only ordered one bowl of noodles and expected to get two extra empty bowls. (Even then, honestly, I don’t see why it would be so difficult for them to accommodate such a request.) No, I had three meals in my order. Three bowls of noodles/laksa, plus drinks and some kaya butter toasts. Surely, it isn’t at all unreasonable to ask for two extra bowls?
I almost wanted to ask how much should I pay for an extra empty bowl, but decided I shall just share my annoyance somewhere else.
