ALL of us have our own unique preferences when it comes to food hence why most eateries are open to customising an order based on someone’s request probably due to allergies or any kind of reason.
However, there are limits to how much restaurants can accept modifying their recipes to cater to someone’s tastes.
A Facebook post by Oh! Media recently exposed a customer’s picky requests in making a fried rice dish.
The image of the receipt posted, had listed down several requests, reducing the fried rice to just a plain one, omitting out the rest of the ingredients.
Not only that, the customer also requested the eatery to wash their cooking utensils and use a new batch of oil just for their “fried rice”.
“Do not include vegetables, chicken, beef, squid , prawns, soy sauce, eggs and belacan.
“Just fry the rice with garlic, onions, bird’e eye chili and add salt and sugar only. Make it extra spicy,” the customer instructed.
At the end, it was revealed that the instructions were ordered by a woman in confinement after giving birth and she just wanted a plain but spicy fried rice.
She seemed apologetic about her request and politely asked them to make the fried rice for her.
Netizens were quite amused with the woman’s order and even pointed out that spicy foods are not allowed during confinement, questioning why she would order such a meal.
The rest chimed in telling the customer to do it herself instead of handing such instructions especially since the recipe is an easy one to make while some others were on her side and understood why she made that request.
“Is this a recipe or a food order?” a netizen commented.
“Making it yourself is a lot easier,” another netizen said.
