Kiasu King Makan Pet: The Friend Who Chopes With Tissue

You are Kiasu King if...

You put a tissue packet down to chope the table. You find the best deals for everyone, not just yourself. And at least once a week you say "eh u don't know got this promo ah?" to someone who did not ask.

The quiz page sums it up as three backups deep and never pays full price. In its own voice, Kiasu King has the discount, the 1-for-1 lobang, the promo code and every booking app, and would like to know if you want a free donut. Look closely at the art: the tissue packet is sitting on its head, like a crown. The full cast and how the quiz works are in our Makan Pets quiz guide.

Kiasu King's bestie and its enemy

The bestie is Broccoli Beast. The card's reason: both of you did the math before ordering. One is counting dollars, the other is counting protein, and neither will be rushed by the waiter. Broccoli Beast's own card picks Kiasu King right back, for disciplined orders and zero judgment.

The enemy is Atas Auntie, and the card does not hold back: their $25 cai fan would end your streak. It is mutual. Atas Auntie's card says Kiasu King is the one who asks for a discount on the codfish.

What Kiasu King orders

The order slide is pure hawker. A plate of chicken rice with the soup, dark sauce, chilli and ginger on the side. A tray of satay. And a plate of cai fan with rice, long beans and a few scoops from the counter.

That cai fan is why the enemy line hits so hard. Kiasu King knows exactly what a plate should cost, and it is not $25. Nothing on this order needs a reservation, and every item is the kind you can split three ways without anyone arguing.
