Think your significant other’s “K” text is passive-aggressive? At least they didn’t print and paste a Google search result on your doorstep.
A woman wasn’t too happy after a chicken rice stall served a guide dog owner, so she Googled whether dogs were allowed in kopitiams, printed the search results and pasted it at the storefront.
Chicken Rice Stall Serves Food to Guide Dog Owner; Angers Another Diner Who Thinks “Dogs are Filthy”
Michael Poh, the owner of a chicken rice stall Poh Kee Chicken Rice, at Block 206 Toa Payoh North, found himself in a sticky situation after his wife served chicken rice to a guide dog owner.
And as all Singaporeans do, Poh took to Facebook to share about the incident.
According to Poh, his wife served food to a guide dog owner, a regular diner at the stall, on Friday (23 June).
Not a problem unless you have an overly-critical diner nearby who subscribes to “the customer is always right”.
Unfortunately, there was a diner of that sort at the chicken rice stall.
A woman dining at the chicken rice stall saw Poh’s wife serving food to the guide dog owner and wasn’t very pleased. She alleged that Poh’s wife did not wash her hands after serving the guide dog owner.
Perhaps the customer isn’t always right.
Although Poh’s wife politely clarified that she did wash her hands, the woman was not convinced—she continued arguing with the stall owners for nearly ten minutes.
When Poh tried telling the woman that guide dogs were allowed at coffee shops, the woman responded: “Dogs are filthy. I don’t care if it’s a guide dog or not.”
The chicken rice must have been really nutritious for the woman to have that much energy to argue with the stall owners.
Jiak pa bo sai pang, literally.
Woman Returns to Chicken Rice Stall Twice With Printout of A Google Seach Result
Clearly, the woman wasn’t too happy with the whole situation. And so she did what any sane person would do.
We’re kidding; it’s not very sane, but give chance lor.
The woman Googled whether dogs are allowed in kopitiams, printed the search results, and returned to the chicken rice stall later that day with the printout to try and prove her point.
In the printout, the phrase “You can’t bring your dog to the Kopitiam” was highlighted—this was regarding pet dogs, not guide dogs, but you’ll be surprised at how good this woman is at “closing one eye”.
We’re just surprised she didn’t ChatGPT the question.
Although the chicken rice stall was already closed, this didn’t stop the woman from doing her mini-protest against the stall.
She left the printout with another hawker, presumably in hopes that the hawker would pass the message on to Poh and his wife.
At least she didn’t do her protest in Hong Lim Park, I guess.
That wasn’t all. The woman must have been craving chicken rice because she returned to the stall on Sunday (25 June) even though it was still closed.
This time, she brought another copy of the printout and pasted it on the storefront. And she was caught on the stall’s CCTV doing it.
Effort level, 100%.
As a result, Poh lodged a police report about the incident. Investigations are currently ongoing.
Regulations Allow for Guide Dogs at F&B Establishments
As it turns out, pet dogs, like those small crusty dogs your friends have named after some generic food like “mochi” or “oreo”, aren’t allowed in F&B establishments.
However, regulations actually allow guide dogs, identified by their bright yellow harnesses, to accompany their visually-impaired partners to F&B establishments.
I guess the lesson here is to read your Google search results properly and be kinder to F&B staff and guide dog owners; this is far from the first time we’ve seen Singaporeans complaining about guide dogs.
As Poh said, “Visually impaired people are already struggling, yet you still want to beat them down. Just live and let live.”
