    I know it's the going rate for a bowl of soup now but their prices jumped significantly, no? For some reason, I remember it being around ~$8 before they closed down.

    Tried it. It's quite pricey and the food isn't great. I thought it was very average to be honest and likely won't return.

    yup price went up, serving size went down since they moved. It's still good but likely wont be frequenting it as much now with new prices, lack of dine in and no drink included in combo

    I thought it was pretty good but I wish there was a better meat to noodle ratio.

    Must be doing something right ,,,....
    A Ferrari is a high maintenance chick, you spend money regardless of what you do with her. You can baby the C63, or slap on all seasons, and you won't be spending anything but yearly maintenance. Of course that's like dating a stripper and refusing to fuck her, which would make you gay.

    hardly...I mean look at a comparable meal.

    Pho - you're looking at somewhere from $8-11 and sure you're getting a bigger quantity but you're not getting the diversity of ingredients.
    Ramen - $13+
    Wonton Soup - probably also $8-11 and you're getting pork dumplings and noodles...

    Guess the taste isn't for everyone but I don't find it expensive at all. Don't forget the price is tax included too.

    i never tip unless i'm paying cash and i'm given change in denominations < a loonie. anything less than a loonie I will usually just give as tip. It's not much but better than nothing considering I don't believe takeout deserves tips. I mean you don't tip at mcdonalds do you?

    Is this place closed/shut down temporarily? Been calling for a week but I'm getting "this person is unavailable at the moment".

    He's back up and running now.

    Went there last night and he told me he wasn't open for a week because he was moving houses.

    i love this place! i wish they still made roti canai. i've tried the roti canai at both banana leaf and mamak dang, and it does not compare to tropical delight's, when they used to make it.

    Revive this thread just long enough so that it can be closed again "permanently".

    Seriously, there is no replacement for their offering. Their laksa was one of the best in the city. I am sorry to see they close shop.

    Yeah, man I forgot all about him. It was always a guaranteed chuckle or two anytime I opened one of his hair-brained OPs.
