MP BYK nasi Padang @ $2.50 a plate.

[countonme]

FYI, there is a chicken rice stall selling $2.00 per package in Woodland MRT, the newly renovated retail space. There are pretty of other $2.00-$2.50 varieties nearby.

Just to add, there is also a chicken rice stall in Choa Chu Kang MRT station selling for $2, either dine in or take away. Portion is okay, but taste is average.

Chicken rice is not stable food bcos of the high fat content. So one cannot be fed on chicken rice frequently. I hope healthier food will also be priced low and affordable. Few years back I can easily find many good hawker food at reasonable price. Now everyone seems to raise price one after another. That's my personal observation.

Some stall sell chicken rice for S$1.50 as published by ST before.

Oh ya... the PSA canteen at keppel road.

Excellent indonesian nasi padang and mee rebus.

Mee rebus - $2.50 super good
The nasi padang with barbecue fish + 2 dish - $4 to $5

Should visit this place before it disappears in future

I am here almost every week. Another good one is at circular road, run by grand children of chief cook for Pre Ishak in Istana 50/60 years ago.

MP BYK publicly corrected his statement.

Now he said because he thought Bandung is $0.50 so the Nasi Padang is $2.50.

I am sure he has too much subsidized or free food provided by his runner till he don't know what is happening.

Also since they don't have to pay so much for food and medical.. who do they need so much salary?

$1.50 will taste like crap. To provide this kind of food they have to cut corner everywhere it will have a lot of rice but only 3-4 flatten thin silvers of chicken and maybe give you cabbage in place of cucumber. Maybe this kind of thing was priced to make affordable for poorer people but you will see once word gets out there's a lot of gian png people flock there eat and not say they cannot afford to pay normal price, they must feel shiok stealing food meant for poorer people.

The food vendor also stupid guy spoil market for everybody including himself, he's only able to operate on volume if his raw material is kept low so he has to source the cheapest and scrubbiest and that's you are putting into your body all the crap stuff that can't really be good for your health. And when his landlord see all the long queue must think there's a lot of business start to up rental then you see that miserable 3-4 chicken maybe will become 2 pieces and no more cabbage also in the end the rent keeps going up he will work until he die and still cannot make money so only outcome is close shop.

I see several similar cases like that already.

Maybe as a good MP, Mr Baey should ask the stall owner to share his secret of selling cheap nasi padang yet remain profitable. And publicise and teach the other hawkers his methodology.

…… err would u as a stall owner do that?

I dont see the link to being good MP
