I am experiencing some form of lifestyle inflation with the recent opening of Waterway Point. Instead of settling for a simple and cheap cai peng at the food centre nearby, I have been frequenting the restaurants at the mall.
For example, with some time to burn before my next lesson today, I am seriously tempted to visit Bali Thai and enjoy their weekday promotional meal.
The total bill would probably add up to $15 but I would convince myself that it’s worth it since it’s both a late lunch and an early dinner. The food is much nicer than the food centre or the food court and moreover, I would get to enjoy my book in a nice environment too.
Thus, it’s not surprising that food expenses has gone up recently, and perhaps it could stay that way? Afterall, our expenses in March still came in below $3,400!
