Many Singaporeans go to Johor Bahru for the cheaper food.
So Stomper Alan was surprised when he was charged RM48 (S$15) for nasi kandar with squid at a restaurant in Taman Nusa Sentral, Iskandar Puteri.
“Nothing is cheap in Johor,” he lamented. “It’s more expensive than Singapore.”
Alan had ordered the food for his mother on March 23 at around 11am. It was his first time at the restaurant. A photo of the receipt shows that he was charged RM12 for the nasi kandar and RM36 for the sotong kari.
“When I told my mum about the price, she was shocked, especially by the sotong,” he said. “I was also surprised I was charged separately since it was on the same plate as the rice.”
