Wow I don't think even primary school canteens sell 30 cent drinks anymore.

Actually quite interesting how the lady boss of that drinks stall mentioned that it's only possible because of their supplier and landlord who are also okay with making less money. Really shows how tough it is to sell at low prices with the number of parties involved.

Unsung heroes of Singapore. Should honour them on National Days.

Maybe I'm a little bit skeptical but what if the $0.30 soy milk is to draw in customers who will also spend on other items? Bcos the boss did mention that only the soy milk is priced low and everything else is normal priced.

Interesting SG60 buffet from Swensen's serving all the local classics but only from 10pm to 2am. And another catch for us westies...only available at Swensen's Changi Airport. -_-

I like the little touches like the fake old-school signboards. Like

Hahah really must drive to enjoy this buffet. Doubt it's fun to rush through the meal just to make the last train.

Walk from Changi to Boon Lay not bad also, can probably burn off all the carbs consumed. Laugh

Hahha I got curious and asked chatgpt how many calories that journey would burn. The answer is 2000+ kcal, which probably accounts for the buffet unless you're a super heavy eater.

I got curious too and checked...that walk would take about 10 hours. Laugh Laugh
