Eat At Your Own Risk


My friend and i were having our dinner at this Pan Mee Restaurant at Bandar Puchong Jaya.

Both of us ordered Fried Pan Mee and we were so shocked to see the Fried Pan Mee soaked in heavy oil upon served.

For the extremely oily Fried Pan Mee, RM6.30 (per plate) and a terrible diarrhoea were the price to be paid.

When two of you having diarrhoea at the same day after eating the same food, surely there must be something wrong here.

This shall be the last time i set foot in this restaurant.

Law of Seed


This is a good way to think if you want to be happy.

Take a look at an apple tree. There might be five hundred apples on the tree, each with ten seeds. That's a lot of seeds! We might ask: Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few more trees?

Nature has something to teach us here. It's telling us: Most seeds never grow. So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more than once.

This might mean:-
You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job.
You'll interview forty people to find one good employee.
You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, car, ideas, etc.
And you might meet a hundred acquaintances to find one special friend.

When we understand the Law of Seed, we don't get so disappointed. We stop feeling like victims. Laws of nature are not things to take personally. We just need to understand them - and work with them.

IN A NUTSHELL
"Successful people fail more often. They plant more seeds."

Caught In A Wind Storm


A policeman noticed an old lady standing on a street corner during a sudden windstorm.

She was bracing herself by holding a light post with one hand, and she was holding her hat snugly against her head with her other hand.

Unfortunately, a strong gust blew her dress upward, and it continued to flap in the wind, exposing her under wear for everyone to see.

The policeman asked, "Hey Lady, everybody is taking a look at what you've got. Don't you think that pulling your dress down is more important than worrying about your hat?"

"Look here - what these people are looking at is 85 years old, but the *hat* is BRAND NEW!"

Melaka Street Restaurant @ SS2, Petaling Jaya (Revisited)


I pay a second visit to this restaurant after my previous visit which left a good impression on me. I was there during lunch time. The workshop next door tend to be very noisy at times as the restaurant opened their door during lunch time.


We actually informed the Manager of the noisy ambience. The Manager has been so kind to close the door at our request. This is what i called GOOD SERVICE. Service has always been extraordinary here in Melaka Street Restaurant.


My friend ordered Dry Curry Chicken with Wantan Mee @ RM7.50. I was told that the Dry Curry Chicken was superb! The curry is flavourful and not too spicy.

However, the combination of curry chicken and wantan mee seems to be a bit odd to me. My friend is of the view that the Dry Curry Chicken taste best with plain white rice.


I ordered Golden Fried Pan Mee @ RM7.50. You can hardly find Fried Pan Mee in a restaurant's menu. Even though some of the restaurant do serve this dish, it was badly done.

But this one, i must say, is above average. The Fried Pan Mee is not oily, unlike most of those Fried Pan Mee i have had. The most important is the "wok hei" itself. Delish!

Eddy's Cafe @ Nineteen Digital Mall, Subang


Went to Nineteen Digital Mall, Subang to buy a computer mouse the other day and settled my dinner at a cafe in the Mall. Eddy's Cafe is a cosy little cafe which offers a very limited selection of Malaysian and Western dishes.


The Boss must have been a big fan of Elvis Presley. There is a corner full of Elvis Presley's collection, with lots of pictures and Piring Hitam.


Iced Lemon Tea.


Chicken Soup.


Chicken Chop... comes with gravy which does not suit my taste buds and over-fried french fries. It is unlikely that i would visit this cafe again.

The Chicken Chop Set Meal (inclusive of Chicken Chop, Chicken Soup and Iced Lemon Tea) is priced at RM12.90.
