Unfortunately for both Scott AND Scoot, this was pretty darn far from being the best meal I’ve ever had on an airplane before. Quite frankly, I’d rather not talk about it. Should I be embarrassed that I ate all of it? For what it’s worth, I’d recommend NOT buying meals on Scoot.

Proofer Bakery’s Changi City Point outlet suspended for two weeks due to infestation found on premises
SINGAPORE: The licence of Proofer Bakery & Pizzeria’s outlet at Changi City Point has been suspended for two weeks due to its failure to keep its licensed premises free of infestation, said Singapore Food Agency (SFA) on Wednesday (Jul 12).
The branch will not be allowed to operate from Jul 12 to Jul 25.
Proofer was also fined S$800 (US$599) after accumulating 12 demerit points in a year. It was given six demerit points each for two offences of failing to keep licensed premises free of infestation.
Under the SFA’s points system, a licensee who accumulates 12 or more demerit points during a 12-month period may have their licence suspended for a period of either two or four weeks, or cancelled.
"All food handlers working in the suspended premises would also be required to re-attend and pass the Food Safety Course Level 1, before they can resume work as food handlers," said the agency.
The licensee is also required to ensure that all food hygiene officers working in the suspended premises, if any, re-attend and pass the Food Safety Course Level 3.
SFA said it takes a serious view of these offences and reminded food operators to observe good food and personal hygiene practices at all times, and to engage only registered food handlers.
The agency added it will not hesitate to take firm action against anyone found to be in violation of the Environmental Public Health Act.
The central kitchen of Proofer Bakery was previously suspended after a “massive pest infestation” was detected by inspectors in October 2021. Food products distributed to Proofer’s retail outlets islandwide were also then recalled.
Members of the public who come across poor food safety practices in food establishments are advised not to patronise the outlets.
They can also provide feedback to SFA via its online feedback form or its contact centre at 6805 2871 with details for follow-up investigations.

2 plates of HK Kailan cost $91 at Vivocity restaurant, customer stunned like vegetable

男子和亲友8人到餐馆用餐,称付款时才发现点两盘大的香港芥兰税前收费91元,当场吓到。本地多名餐饮业者表示,香港芥兰本来比一般菜昂贵,工序更为复杂,且分量是按人头算,不同分量的价格自有差异。
林先生(28岁,执行员)向本报通报,屠妖节当天和父母和朋友到位于怡丰城的翡翠苑吃点心,期间点了耗油炒香港芥兰,服务员应人数提议大份,不料最后结账发现两盘大份香港芥兰税前要价高达91元2角,平均一份是45元6角。
林先生当场向收银员确认,对方表示没算错。
据记者了解,菜单上普通分量的香港芥兰为小份,中份则加价11元4角,大份则是小份的双份价格。
本地餐饮业者也指出,餐馆蔬菜一般按人头收费,小份供两到三人,中份供五到六人,大份则供八到十人。因此,大份价格比小份高出一倍是普遍的做法。(报道:林艺君)(图:潘丰源)
