This afternoon, I went to Maxwell Hawker Center for lunch. I loved the China Fritters aka Ngoh Hiang Gwang Chiang. I may have not been there for a year. The price has gone up. Egg slice is now 80cents instead of 60cents. Ngoh Hiang is 90 cents, fishball is 50cents each. Wow, no wonder no more queue.
After lunch, I thought I will buy some egg tarts back and the price has gone from $1.40 to $1.80 each for coconut and $1.30 to $1.70 each for regular. I could not stomach the increased in price and forgo my treat. Anyway, my boys are not home until evening. So it is easy to resist my usual temptation to buy snacks back home.
Eating at hawker centers is so expensive nowadays. No wonder the retirees are struggling.
