The former primary school canteen vendor who went viral for his TikTok videos is now starting over, converting his home-based drinks stall into a brick and mortar store at Katong Shopping Centre.<\/p>\n
Last month, Rayner Tan, 27, shut down his vegetarian food stall at Mee Toh School<\/a><\/span> following a complaint about a viral video, in which he was seen gently reprimanding a boy for tossing a two-dollar note at him<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n Mr Tan then launched Corner Pane, a stall selling drinks like matcha latte and iced coffee from his HDB flat bedroom window .<\/p>\n On Dec 2, the former engineer uploaded a post captioned “Starting a new store @ Katong Shopping Centre”, touting a seven-day countdown series on his TikTok account @veg.eng.<\/p>\n In the clips shared so far, “D-7” shows him arranging his store layout and appealing to netizens for ideas, while “D-6” features the Canva-designed collaterals for the stall.<\/p>\n His store banner indicates that he will be selling “coffee, matcha, dessert & more”.<\/p>\n The first clip has since garnered more than 161,800 views, 4,830 reactions and 130 comments at press time.<\/p>\n However, it is unclear exactly when the store will open, although the countdown suggests a launch on Dec 9.<\/p>\n Netizens were enthusiastic about the news, with some offering suggestions for the store layout Mr Tan. “Make all the chairs facing the stall. Like a classroom setting,” one suggested.<\/p>\n Another added: “Don’t put 2 tables in a row. many [sic] no brainer where [sic] they just 2 people, chopped [sic] 4 seats for bags.”<\/p>\n One suggested posting a video with directions to the store from the nearest MRT station, while another joked: “If throw [sic] money while ordering, you will scold or not?”<\/p>\n Stomp has reached out to Rayner Tan for comment.<\/p>\n‘Will it be school price ah’: Netizen<\/h3>\n
