PETALING JAYA: A seafood restaurant in Langkawi has been slapped with a notice from the authorities over a customer’s complaint of being charged RM1,196.80 for a dish of ‘siakap’ (sea bass).

The action comes after a customer’s online rant about the bill, allegedly an eye-watering RM1,759.50, for a meal for seven people. The bill was said to have included RM1,196.80 for the fish weighing 7.48kg.

The customer said he was shocked when he saw the bill. However, the restaurant owner said she informed the customer about the price of RM16 per 100gm for the fish.

Harian Metro reported today that the domestic trade and consumer affairs ministry has issued a notice to the restaurant under the Price Control and Anti-Profiteering Act. The restaurant has five days to respond.
