“This is an Indonesian restaurant, right? So it’s no surprise that everything has a charge. If they could, they’d even charge you for the oxygen if you come to their place. It’s ridiculous. I don’t understand why Malaysians are so obsessed with eating over there. Honestly, the sambal isn’t even good at all. 🙄”

“If you know you can’t afford to install air conditioning, don’t bother. Just use regular fans. I see plenty of popular eateries using fans, and they’re still getting lots of customers.”
