East Coast restaurant charges S$2 for lobsters due to ‘carelessness’
On Wednesday (18 Feb) night, a family of two adults and two girls dined at the restaurant, said Cheng Ji’s lady boss in the post.
They ordered two Australian lobsters weighing around 1.2kg, which cost S$200.
However, due to “a slip of the finger” and carelessness on the restaurant’s part, they were charged S$2 instead.

The restaurant did not notice the error at the time, she added.
Girls return to restaurant the next night, inform boss about mistake
The next night, the two girls returned to the restaurant with the receipt.
CCTV footage with a time stamp of 9.50pm showed them speaking to the lady boss, informing her that there had been a mistake and they were undercharged.
