So back to these Singlish verb phrases; they are pretty useful to tourists so that you will not receive that look from the cashier / uncle when you tell your orders to him. Having here is used when you would like to eat in the place itself. You can use it anywhere - hawker centres, kopitiams, or even in fast food stalls. And Take Away (Tapau? don't know if this is the right pin yin for the term) is being used whenever you want to have what you ordered wrapped up.
So if you are going to visit Singapura, do take note of these Singlish phrases and you're off to enjoying whatever dish you want to eat.
