First dates can be expensive. But one man recently spent almost S$800 — and still got ghosted.
A man in Singapore recently went on Reddit to share what he described as his most expensive first date ever, after a woman he met on a dating app allegedly ordered an extravagant meal at Imperial Treasure Fine Teochew Cuisine at ION Orchard.
He said it was actually the woman was the one who chose the restaurant, and even asked him to pick her up from her workplace.
As the man doesn’t drive, he booked a Grab ride and added an extra stop to pick her up.
When they arrived at the restaurant, she allegedly handed him her bags to carry. Then came dinner, where she reportedly offered to order for both of them.
According to the man, he had never been to the restaurant before and wasn’t familiar with its prices.
She ordered Australian lobster, poached live prawns, braised sea cucumber in oyster sauce and double-boiled fish maw soup with shark cartilage. There were also vegetables with crab meat, steamed rice, orange juice, pickles and pu-erh tea.
The bill, including service charge and GST, came up to a whopping S$741.
“I pay it. I don’t ask her anything,” he wrote.
No argument, or awkward discussion about splitting the bill.
And apparently, that still wasn’t the end of his spending for the evening.
