@skinnylatte problem is the stalls are getting very expensive to rent.

@martin_piper yeah the difference between what a legacy hawker pays and what a today hawker pays is immense

@skinnylatte before my daughter was born, when I was working at beach road, I used to eat a lot of hawker food almost every day. My cholesterol level massively increased. I then switched to cooking at home a lot more often.
