So here I am in Singapore, desperate for something to eat when behold … I come across this thriving metropolis. OK, so it is pretty early to eat lunch, but this is almost 'ghost town' quiet.
My question is should I or should I not eat here? Go on, tell me what's the thought process you go through when choosing whether to eat at a venue or not.

Well I’d go into the 5.01pm restaurant because it looks bigger.

Comment by Her Indoors May 5, 2006 @ 5:44 pmShould I chance upon a new venue (cafe/restaurant), it will always be the price then the offerings. I will also consider if the ambience is ‘chat friendly’. If the place is rowdy, I would have gone to a food court instead. Oh yes, the size of the seats matters too!
Comment by Celeste May 12, 2006 @ 9:27 pmWhen you say you evaluate on price first, do other factors like ‘ambience’ get taken into account in your evaluation or do you simply have a price you believe is fair and just for all meals?
Comment by Rob May 13, 2006 @ 10:10 amFor places I have never been, these will be the factors in the order of importance:
1) Price (fair and just because I am taking a risk)
2) Variety
3) Ambience
4) Hygiene
5) Brand (i.e. If I have tried Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao and it’s good, I will probably perceive Crystal Jade’s Korean crusine to be good too.)
For places that I know, offerings will be more important than price. I will only revisit a place if the food is good. After all, any eatery is supposed to satisfy one’s taste buds and hunger.
