You mean they serve CQYD instant noodles at the cafe? Did they add a whole can of luncheon meat to it to charge $5.90? Razz Laughing

ditzy SG

6 bucks to eat maggie mee with luncheon meat and eggs? Laughing What a fantastic deal!

mochou SG

if those who went to HK before, would know what is "cha can ting". It's one of the cheapest type of things you can eat.

it's way more expensive when the idea of cha can ting "moved" to singapore.
I went to a cha can ting in Wai Chai, had a sirlion steak meal for 50HKD. which is about 10SGD. And it was quite nice. For those instant noodles, most HKer eat them for breakfast only. They have Set breakfast, some with different type of toast, some with instant noodles.

JLennon SG

see if they serve fried instant noodles with chicken chop. dem good combo. how's their ice lemon tea?

FireIce SG

for restaurant with this kind of environment... $5.90 is not expensive.
