SINGAPORE (The Nation/Asia News Network): Diners having their meals at Crystal Jade restaurants on Tuesday (April 26) may not notice that the cutlery has been pre-set on the table and salt and pepper shakers neatly placed on the side.

It would have been unremarkable, if not for the past two years, during which tables were left bare of cutlery and condiments until customers were seated, for hygiene reasons.
