Cook Book Asia @ Great World City

Saw this new Makan Place in Great World City. Cook Book Asia. Just by hearing the name, makes my mind wonder back to many delicious food. So my colleague and I decided to give it a try. The 3 of us ordered Laksa and drinks. We got a shocked when we view the receipt. One bowl of Laksa cost $5.90 not inclusive of GST. Drinks at $1.90 each. Totaled up each person have to pay $8.35. Mc Donald meal doesn't cost that much.

I ordered Coke but they mix up my order and gave me barley instead, which is tasteless. Laksa was also tasteless. The worst part was, halfway through the meal, my colleague found a hair in her Laksa. And believe me, it’s very long.

We told the person in charge there that we found a hair inside. He took the bowl and walked into the kitchen. Came back with a new bowl of Laksa few minutes later. Told us that there will be no black hair only white hair (which means the noodle). What kind of sick joke is that? He didn’t apologize about it but instead he could make fun out of it. We could see how ‘Professional’ he was. Every bowl of Laksa comes with 2 prawns. My colleague ate one. In her new bowl there was only one Prawn. So we’re wondering whether did they took the prawn from the old bowl to save cost....
