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.

i tot that was fake

That place memang cekik darah liao

so she the one who kena isit?

He see you bring cute amoi , so charge " Kaw Kaw " la , apa salah . Kalau tak suke ... menteri BN akan balas U soon

kayu only go eat at kayu

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

got... but 'ikut harga pasaran'

which they can ketuk how much they like lah

sotong raksaksa ka rm60??

i boycott mamak already, when is your turn?

Vera Kari pun mahal kah?

Expensive? Hahah, people still go there. Who's the dumb arse now?

sotong rm60? wtf...even if i eat japanese special octopus also not that expensive...

s*h4i punya mamak

ape dgn nasi?

beside prima 9 cyberjaya got one also, damn expensive..ais kosong also 50sen..=.=..i rather walk to satiam much cheaper and tasty.

sad la u guys, have to pay ratus ratus just for seafoods...

pls do come to sabah...

seafood haven!

Tis! Cheap, fresh and yummy
Must eat steam wan

the one near kfc?

lol go eat "mamak mixed rice".. wait kena potong leher lettew
siao siao

Though I ain't a big fan of seafood...

I'm curious, which part of Sabah ?

Share sikit

not only steam...

sabah famous of soup...

sup this, sup that...

fuuuuuuuuuuuuh!!!!

apparently, mamak food is like the best local cuisine that you should bring ang mo fren there,

1. KK

2. RANAU (near Gunung Kinabalu)

3. TAWAU/SANDAKAN.

If you go to KAYU to eat mean you are really KAYU too because that restaurant already known damn expensive cut throat.

if based on quality ?

untung banyak loh......satu ayam satu ringgit.....why sooo expensive?

if based on quality...

would be the source itself...

mostly KK seafood also from Tawau and Sandakan...

near that coast...

quality as in the sizes...

but taste...all the same la...

sotong in kk?

damn cheap...

ahh okay,

I got friends from KK...maybe next time ask him bring me around

if u want cheap...

better buy sendiri and masak....

if on tight bajet..

if not, go to kedai and start ordering lah...

just go to fancy2 restoran la..

sure the prices would be like in KL...

makan dulu kenyang2, lepas tu baru komplen

ada wang, ada food...

kubis dan satu bendi.....kuah campur

if add 1 piece jiken sure price rm8++

not good in seafood

not good what?

not good in cooking seafood?

nope, beside bomba there..inside mahindra satiam building..

ya

as a penangnite everytime i take 3 dishes (1 vege, 1 meat and 1 sotong) will amount to RM 15 approx. compared to the others like pelita, mahmud, etc...kayu is the worst offender...

last time I saw nasi kandar boss driving E class.

overpriced food + cheap indian labour = profit !

Fuyoh his memory so good that he can recognize a customer by his name even though the customer never introduced himself, and he knows exactly how many sotong he took even though the manager never serves the food.

Manager said 2 sotong.. That means 1 sotong is rm30? Lel.. Mamak u dont act smart.. Wokkay?

Typical naai kandaq is when u take:

nasi
ayam
sayur

drinks

should cost around rm7-8

dont ever touch sotong, udang & seafood coz those will cost you a bomb!

Kayu chain owner sure can drive Lambo

Abc One Bistro
1 Briyani Ayam Rm 14.00
2 Air Suam rm.80
1 Nasi Campur RM 9.00

Total RM 23.80 expensive mahal

Rm 55.00
Rm31.20

Never go to mamak stall,everything overprice and overrated,misai tebal

As far as I know Nasi kandar is freaking expensive everywhere... What's more kayu... went once, never go again...

Msians memang x fikir... If want to go eat at overrated restaurant with overcharge price then don't complain..if complain expensive then don't go

Chicken beef mutton is ok. The seafood u need to be very careful

Cb necro. Didnt notice the date

Bodoh punya necro

Dah tahu tu tempat tetak orang punya, masih layan lagi buat apa?

indian restaurant if wan eat order nasi putih telur dadar enuf..other then dat confirm 10rm ++

cb no wonder i got that deja vu feeling. like i never commented before yet i did.
still rings true today though.

never take anything on the price list that have ikut size or ikut harga pasaran.
they actually mean ikut suka hati depa.

rm300 could get him some nice food in a chinese restaurant in jb...

pukitaik who keep necro thread

Receipt Mana?

Already 2017 still got people willing to get con by nasi kandar shop

Mamak punya calculation mmg legendary wan mah.....you can pick the same amount of items everyday but sure price different

Same old shits with chicken rice stall in seremban la.

2 plates of chicken rice 11rm, @5.50rm.

Request a half-chicken with 2 plates oily rice.. 65RM!!!

Can u see the diferences?

yes. the difference in labor charges for cleaning 2 plates and 3 plates is quite a lot.

this

if still crazy wanna eat at mamaks

Jonathan Bong is a woman?
