The Ultimate Coffee Experience
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
My wife wanted a bowl of Thai Laksa - RM6.60
I would like to try the Shalala Rice - RM6.60
Order was made. The lady cashier collected RM19.30 from me. Then we wait to be served.
That was a beautiful evening around 5pm at Shalala Coffee, in Tapah Rest Area, midway to Kuala Lumpur.
Finally the food was ready. There is no other customer except my family.
Self-service please! Oh.. Nobody cares even if you are carrying a baby. The food is there on the tray, come and get it!
I insisted to have the receipt. She asked me to wait a minute.
3 minutes later. I got the receipts. Yeah, it is “receipts” with the plural ’s’.
Take a look:

Notice anything strange?
My guess is that she inputted only the cup of coffee initially. When I insisted to have the receipt, she added in the others in a separate receipt.
What if I didn’t care about the receipt? Someone is going to earn extra, not through hard work. The business owner would be in greater loss.
To the owner of Shalala Coffee shop at Tapah Rest Area:
- Your employee is acting strange
- Your shop is empty most of the time
- Your food sucks! We got diarrhea that night. The whole night!
Any witness? Yes.
