An appropriate time to post, as most of us have safely digested our lunch, and are far off enough away from dinner to avoid any serious spoilers; snackers – you can look away now if you’re stomach-sensitive.
A Melaka food outlet has been called out on social media for their rather unsanitary outdoor décor of cooked chicken hanging by tenterhooks near their rooftop. The rung-up poultry is a main feature in the restaurant’s chicken rice. Very special chicken rice, if you will.
Resembling something taken out of a pagan restaurant design book, over a dozen dead birds hang swaying in the tropical winds, wondering just what they had done in a past life to suffer such an indignity even in their poultry afterlives.
Shout out to the feathered merchants of death, the macabre crow, feasting on chicken freebies: Anjali Ragu and her husband spotted the birds taking a nibble of the chicken meat before being shooed away by employees.
Concerned over what seems to be a fundamentally flawed meat storage/decoration tactic, Anjali’s husband confronted the restaurant owners, telling them that the current situation was unsanitary and harmful to punter’s health.
Also, Coconuts KL side note: Those birds are ridiculously close to getting shat on. Speaking from experience.
She reports that the owner was rude, and ignored the complaint.
Please, we need to know where these guys do their dishes — Raj’s Banana Leaf, you have competition.
SO! Readers! Here is the shop front and here is her post warning your avian flu-wary bodies away from eating a crow’s sloppy seconds:
You’re welcome.
