Bad Food Feng Shui?
When I first joined my present company, my new colleagues told me that if I have to eat my lunch here at eGate every day, I’ll hate my life.
They are right. The food here suck for some reason.
It didn’t matter that the outlets here are franchises and have a certain standard to uphold. While some of their other branches on the island have really good food, once they open shop here, the quality seemed to go down.
Case in point, Secret Recipe with their really “cacat” looking cakes :p
Or Old Town with their lousy nasi lemak that seemed to pack an oomph when served at their branch in New World Park.
Even KFC here can’t live up to the standards of their branches in Midlands or Island Plaza. The KFC here is really salty and the smell of their spices is too overpowering.
I think the only acceptable place here is Subway but not when some fresh faced newbie is preparing my sandwich. I guess it’s a good thing that I don’t take vegetables with my sandwich. It can be quite a mess when a newbie is preparing a sandwich with bits of vegetables and sauces spilling out from the edge of the bread.
I heard El Mundo pizza just opened a new outlet here over the weekend. Personally, I have never eaten al El Mundo’s before so I don’t know what their standards are like. I just hope their standards don’t drop like the rest of their neighbors.
So tell me, is it the feng shui here, or is it just bad QC? Why does the food here suck so much compared to other places on the island?
It certainly boggles the mind…
