Good observation. But $13.80++ for lunch in Suntec even without taking full advantage of the free-flow stuff is still good value leh.

Yeah agreed...it's definitely not as cheap as the food court but sometimes it's worth paying a little more for not having to queue and a little more space and quiet during a work lunch.

So true! Some workdays you really dont feel like queuing or being in a noisy food court.
And I think $13.80++ is pretty good value. Food looks decent too, not fantastic but def good enough for a weekday lunch.

That was my initial thought too but hmm after reading the other replies about it actually being a decent deal, all things considered, maybe $13.80++ isn't too bad?

Not a bad idea for a youtube series, I can see this being a hit.

I think it's already a hit at more than 50,000 views! Well done to the taxi driver!

I hope he can invite more taxi drivers to give their recommendations. Their knowledge must live on.

Would be quite incredible if he can turn content creation into a full-time job, prob less tiring than driving a taxi an entire day.
