From RM18 (S$5.40) [US$4.00] at his Pavilion KL outlet to RM16 (S$4.80) at his new outlet at MyTown mall.
Earlier this year, Malaysian comedian Nigel Ng, aka Uncle Roger, 33, opened his first restaurant Fuiyoh! It’s Uncle Roger in the upscale Kuala Lumpur shopping mall Pavilion KL. The KL native, who is now based in the US, recently made a trip back to Malaysia for the grand opening of his eatery’s second and third outlets in KL’s MyTown mall and Selangor’s IPC Shopping Centre. It looks like Uncle Roger has been listening to feedback from his customers.
During an interview with influencer Sam Wong, Uncle Roger revealed that he had reduced the price of his fried rice.
While business at the Pavilion outlet is still brisk, Uncle Roger explained that “people have complained that RM18 is too expensive for a plate of fried rice, though it’s an acceptable price for [the location]”.

This is what you consider new worthy of the main board?
smh
Kinda a weird post, I agree.
At least it is in general/chat unlike my screw up in news... lol
“ During an interview with influencer Sam Wong, Uncle Roger revealed that he had reduced the price of his fried rice.”

I believe that Sam Wong is the nephew of the famous restaurateur Sum Ting Wong.
This kid had a hilarious critique of Jaime Oliver’s rendition of fried rice.

I’ve seen some of his other videos, but this stands out. Oddly enough, the bad vibes I got about Oliver’s culinary skills when I watched it coincided with financial trouble at his restaurants.

Weird post, yes. But also valuable.
At Christmas dinner last year my cousin Boopie asked me, “What is Nigel Ng up to?” I didn’t have an answer. Couldn’t even guess. That was embarrassing.
But if it comes up this year I’ll be ready.
This comment from another video about the kid’s video summed up the amateurish and slapdash quality of the Oliver production. He added sugar in the form of the “chili jam” (whatever that is) to a red hot pan, and it ran the risk of starting to burn and smoke. The guy never tested the recipe before getting the video production crew set up. Amateur hour on steroids.

Nigel Ng, aka Uncle Roger.
Don’t tell Auntie Helen. Or Jamie Oliver.

Scolds.
Fuiyoh!
Good for him.
I think the guy is hilarious but the wife can’t stand him.
To the finger waggers, don’t make me put my knee down...
Heh heh...
He’s a credit to his rice.
sauropod, THIS is what you should be eye-rolling about!
It's a stupid post, don't bump it! I won't bump it by making comments, and you don't bump it by replying!
🤣🤣🤣
Uncle Roger BUY you rice cooker.
I posted my latest work in Chat (it didn't quite rise to the level of a Freeper Editorial, I thought) and I clearly labeled it a Vanity.
In the keywords section, some real-life scold added these labels: belongsinchat; vanity
So I answered: 1itislabeledvanity; 2itisinchat; 3whatsyourproblem;
Apparently I have a keyword stalker now. People like that are not only scolds (that in this case, who is completely wrong), but they are cowards that hide behind keywords.
If JohnRob were to add a feature, it might be interesting to add a hoverover event to display who added a keyword. Then I could call the cowardly punk out in the thread.
Just don’t bump the thread by replying.
