# Diner asks: '$12 for eight pieces of salted egg pork? Really?'

Stomper F was not impressed when she was charged $12 for a small plate of salted egg pork at 1036 Live Seafood in Sembawang on Monday (Sept 12).

She told Stomp: "We ordered the small portion and to our surprise, I could literally count the pieces of pork in there.

"I even asked the lady, $12 for eight pieces of pork? Really?

"She just said yes.

"The food was not fantastic either.

"Located in some isolated area, I really wonder how they survive."

When asked if she would give the restaurant another go she said: "That's a no for sure."
