there are several reasons why this is happening.
big coffee shop chains such as banquet, kopitiam, koufu keeps opening new outlets. how do they open? they are becoming what you call SME. government gives subsidies to them to aid them in expansion. they have to come out with expansion plans. once approved, they will get money to expand. if you notice, all the foodcourt stalls more or less the same. they will get their existing stall holders to go to new one branch to open.
where to get so many manpower? how many sporeans you know will want to operate a food stall? so likely employ foreign talent. with increasing costs and operators needing to cut cost, they turn from msians to PRC. why? cheaper labour. though it is more likely that a msian can cook better a local flavoured food compared to PRC
so you end up having a PRC cooking local flavour prawn mee, bak chor mee. you think the taste will have local flavour? cooking is an art. take for example the bedok 85 bak chor mee, local people cook. taste better compared to the bak chor me cooked by PRC.
remember, im not against PRC working, what they taste buds and cooking styles is very different for such local flavored food. as such this is possible one of the many reasons for food standard drop.
another possibility is that due to increasing costs, local food operators have to switch to lower grade of ingredients. even vinegar can make or break a bowl of bak chor mee. so if use lower grade, the vinegar used cannot bring out the flavour of the local food fare. when operators cut corners for ingredients, quality of food sure drop.
