ATC Kopi-Tiam

Centerpoint is my regular haunt. Nintendo games there. My scented candles there. Bernards there. Last time, I used to visit this place because of the gym too but now no more. The gym chap-lap (closed down) liao. And it's really quite convenient from where I stay.

I went there recently (as with other days) to fix up my kid's Nintendo DS and get some new games for their school holiday. Got hungry and decided to eat there. My  personal fave local noodles dish, apart from wan tan mee and prawn mee, is the Pan Mee.



Pan Mee is a hand-made noodles thing that is served up in salty-sweet sauce all jumbled together so that the noodles absorb the sauce. Then it is topped up with a little bit of minced pork (or chicken, as you like it) and LOTSA dried anchovies!! Oh, geepers! The anchovies is my favorite part of this dish.

However, the ATC Kopi-Tiam Pan Mee is fail (not good) maximum! It's sweet, not salty. It's quite tasteless, actually. But maybe the boss (owner) is not in a good mood, cook like shite. I would like to say it is OK, but it is not.

But at least they have lots of choices when it comes to drinks. So, drink lah. And before you order the Pan Mee, ask the boss whether he is in good mood or not.



Note: The Prawn Mee stall seems to be consistent...which is good.

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Demanding a Balanced Lifestyle

We live in a world choked with demands….demand for more money, better lifestyle, more holidays, smarter kids, bigger house, posher cars….etc. People walk around with spiritually unimportant goals in their minds driven by the need to succeed and be better than others around them. Hong Kong. South Korea. Japan. Most Asian countries suffer from this ill-fate which have caused a horrific rise in the number of suicide rates in the said countries. Malaysia is no exception as well although we’re very slowly gaining ground on our neighbors. Just picking up my son from school can become a stressful affair. I’ve mentioned this to a few friends of mine over the phone and all of them cluck their tongue shake their head. It’s end of the year and the kids are getting their test results back by now. I overheard a couple of tai-tais (housewives) gripe about their kids’ results. Mom: I don’t know-lah. My kid did not do very well this term. The best also got 95 only. (NINETY FIVE ONLY???) ...
