$7.50 for bowl of glass noodles is worse than daylight robbery, says diner

Most of us are willing to pay for the convenience of takeaway meals but how much is too much?

Stomper GY shared with Stomp that he was charged $7.50 for a bowl of glass noodles with a basic topping on Oct 28.

He declined to reveal the eatery's name but said that it was in the northern region.

"I saw Stomp's article about a woman describing being charged $7 for sotong as 'daylight robbery' but mine was worse," said GY.

"It was just a bowl of glass noodles with shredded don't-know-what and it cost me $7.50!"

It was the first time GY had patronised this particular eatery but needless to say, it was also likely his last.

When asked how much he felt would have been a fair price to charge for the meal, he replied: $4 to $5.

"Interestingly, a lot of eateries seem to be 'overcharging'," he said.
