Customer claims famous nasi kandar restaurant overcharges

BY L. SUGANYA





KUALA LUMPUR: A Facebook post claiming Original Kayu Nasi Kandar restaurant overcharged its customers is being shared on social media, but the manager of the restaurant is denying the allegation.

According to the post by Jonathan Bong dated Mar 19, he was charged RM60 for a piece of squid and RM26 for a small plate of mutton.

The receipt that he posted also listed several other items amounting to RM312.10 including Nasi Briyani (RM48), two types of chicken priced at RM26 and RM10, Fried eggs (RM12), Nasi Kandar (RM12), Vegetables (RM24), and drinks priced at RM24.10.

“Folks beware. RM 60 for 1 piece of sotong (squid). RM 26 for a small plate of mutton curry (ordered 2).

“Don't ever go there. Just because I had some foreigners with me, got ripped off. Last time ever,” Bong posted on his page.

In the comment section, Bong indicated that he went to the restaurant with seven other people.

The restaurant’s manager, who only wanted to be known as Muhammad, however denied that they overcharged Bong as they have a fixed pricing system.

“We charge customers based on what they eat and the price is the same regardless of whether they are locals or foreigners.

“We are not allowed to charge any more or any less than what is listed by our boss,” he said when contacted by The Star.

Muhammad added that the person who posted the receipt was trying to be smart as the receipt did not state clearly how many plates of each item was bought.

“He is trying to be smart. Maybe some of the fault lies with our staff as he did not key in how many portions of each dish the customer took, but this is not fair,” he said.

He further explained that a piece of fried squid is big enough to serve up to five people and the other dishes were also of bigger portions meant to serve more than one person.

He also clarified that Bong took two pieces of squid and not one as indicated in the Facebook post.

RM312.10/8 = RM39 each

i wonder what they eat?

Kena sotong.

semua orang tau restoran mahal tapi lau mlm ni aku round2 area taipan still ramai jgk retard yg ddk dlm restoran kayu

Can go eat buffet liao.

In Chinese restaurant eat fat *** cheong(buddha jump over wall).

SOTONG? ROFL

How about abalone, imported cold water COD fish, scallops and big prawns?

Summore the manager dare call his customers trying to act SMART?

Mamak Yindian shop best you order the roti-roti varieties enough. Don't touch the rice and its servings.

what kind of sotong worth rm60 per piece? I wanna see

rm 60 can go shogun buffet . eat till u fat

wan go eat at overated stall but cannot bear the overated price
wan to go eat nasi kandar be ready to get super high charge...
i go there once and finds that place is just a normal mamak stall with tasteless meals...
i dun know why my acting high class friend say that place is gooding and queuing with low class people
for people who ban mamak stall like me can go eat at chinese place at that price for 2 couple...

a piece of fried squid is big enough to serve up to five people - lmfao and the mamak "remember" how many he took

Sand people maybe never saw fresh seafood before that's why price them like gold.

They don't have menus or price lists?

Pandai guna facebook,pandai tulis surat complain star,tapi still bodoh mau makan sana padahal every year got people complain mamak especially kayu mahal nak mampos

Orang gaji 20k sebulan memang bodoh macam ni ke

leng lui win already lo.

Tu dia....
mamak also learn how to songlap

aku makan sana tambah nasi rm4 je. dont you know the main rule when going kayu is to NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER touch the meats
