IF you have been to a mamak, you know how difficult it can be to place your order at times. At peak hours especially, it is not uncommon for diners to struggle to get the waiters to take their orders.
While the majority of us would patiently wait for them, one diner, however, has recently come up with a more efficient method to battle this issue.
In a 13-second TikTok clip, the customer can be seen holding a signboard that read: “Ane tengok sini (brother look here).” The mini blackboard which was decorated with LED strips, illustrated its message with chalk.
What’s more, two Bluetooth speakers were attached to the board. In fact, the customer played the parody version of Bohemian Rhapsody - Mamak Rhapsody by Jaster Fong.
Its lyrics resonated well as it was asking the waiters to attend to him: “Aku nak buat order tapi customer banyak you tak dengar (I want to make an order, but there were a lot of customers, so you couldn’t hear me).”
According to the person who shared the video, identified as Ridzuan, this incident occurred at Restoran Sultan in Bukit Jalil.
Though the man’s efforts did not appear to catch the waiter’s reaction, the video has gone viral on TikTok. Since its posting five days ago, the short recording has garnered over 100,000 views and more than 7,000 likes.
So, what are your thoughts? Do you think this way is a very creative solution or a disruptive one?
