Outrageous bill for rice


Had dinner at a Jap restaurant in Dubai Marina last night. Ordered two extra rice for the children but never asked how much it will cost - should me minimal right? After all, this isn't live steam fish.

Can't believe my eyes when the bill was presented. 12 DHS or approx S$4.80 for a small bowl of rice!

Anyway the food wasn't great. We shan't be back there for a very long time. Next time, we will ask the price of rice.

Roti is cheap, may be we should eat more bread then.

Yes, I haven't even bothered to find out how much it costs. The killer here is rental. It is astronomical and keeps rising.
