Hot water? That’ll be 30 cents please
TWO weeks ago, I brought my wife and five-month-old daughter to visit VivoCity.After enjoying the shopping mall, we proceeded to Food Republic for afternoon tea and also to feed my daughter.
I brought along a milk bottle to the drink counter and asked for some hot water to warm the milk.
To my surprise, I was told that hot water is chargeable at 30 cents.
I highlighted the fact that I was already ordering a soft drink for my wife and tea for myself. The operator insisted that nothing is free and continued to chastise me for expecting to get hot water for free.
It is not the cost that concerns me, but the fact that Singapore is encouraging family friendly practices but yet, such a scenario can present itself.
