New Places, Old Faces

For several weeks now, I have not been going to Paradigm Mall after church. Visited Publika instead. Mum ate at the food court, while I had my Nu Skin ageLOC Trim Shake. She didn't really like Kin Kin Pan Mee's chili pan mee. Guess she doesn't like the concept. And I did find it kinda disgusting that they put a whole bunch of icky factory-made fried shallots on the noodles. There's also a new addition to the food court-- ME.REKA, a space designing and making. Arty stuff la. Haha.



The 10th International Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival 2017 (KLEFF 2017) was also happening at Publika, so there were some special stalls in addition to the usual flea market vendors. Bumped into Bibik Nyonya there, someone who I have not met since the Serendah trip in 2007! He's in the artisanal soap business now, so he sells his wares at flea markets around the Klang Valley. Glad to hear that his business is doing well. Also visited B.I.G. and was wow-ed by their huge selection of Halloween stuff.





On the way back, we stopped at Cafe Ame Soeur, Jalil Link for some Royal Belgian Coffee. Unlike my last visit, there was no crazy waiting list. Easily found a good table for all our swafoto bersama needs. The coffee was still as good as I remember it, but without the promotion, it's MYR20 before tax. Before your eye bug out, you can actually get two and half cups of coffee from it. Cafe Ame Soueur's customer segment remained the same-- fashionable young girls with thick make up, flowers, and balloons, and couples. And the occasional gay boy and his mother. Wakakaka.
