John and Betty are discussing the possibility of setting up a Peranakan food and beverage (F&B) outlet together. Betty is a chef and is trying to convince John to join her as an investor. Betty has prepared an investment contract, and is currently discussing the terms with John. John asked Betty, "Are your specialty dishes based on authentic Peranakan recipes?" Betty answered, "Of course! Not only are they authentic, they are based on my grandmother's secret recipes and are the best Peranakan dishes in Singapore. If you don't believe me, go ask our mutual friend, Paul who is an expert on Peranakan cuisine". John has tried Betty's dishes and found them delicious though he does not know much about Peranakan food. John did not ask for Paul's views and decided to go ahead and sign the contract to invest in Betty's restaurant business. Unfortunately, the business fared poorly as it turned out that many customers felt the dishes were not sufficiently authentic.
