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...

Malaysian Election 2008 - Malaysians ready for change

The political wrestle is over, here in Malaysia, and thankfully too because it earned me a hangove from watching the news, and reading all the readily available blogs on cyberspace all night long. With a spilting headache from squinting into the PC screen, watching the TV for news on the results from the ballot boxes, anxiety, uncertainty and HOPE lingers in the air..... BN, our ruling party in Malaysia, who has been flexing its political muscles for a long time now with the confident (and ever sleepy and gay) PM convincing Malaysians that BN is the only way to peace. Opposition cannot hold the fort properly, though, because the formation and coalition between them is too loose. But with BN denied the 2/3 majority it needed, all I can say is that Pak Lah tore a tendon while flexing his political muscles. Fed up, fed up, fed up - Malaysians are fed up A lot of Malaysians chose not to vote for the oppositition IN THE PAST because we wanted unity, we resisted change because of a date w...

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???) ...
