Assorted food #10

Pad See Ew at Thai Tai @Starling Mall. The flavour was good and I loved that there was plenty of vegetable. However, as even evidenced in the photo, it was quite oily, which is the reason why I haven't been back there. I might give it another try.

 

 

As previously blogged, I cut the blocks of compressed sushi rice into half and they were just right. I had it with my usual coral lettuce and tomato. I usually place strips of nori on to the rice but this time it was on the salad.

 



 

Promotional set at KBN King's Seremban Beef Noodle @Damansara Uptown, when they were promoting their then newly introduced dessert and drinks. It was quite nice but it was too much for me.

 


Aglio Olio with Seafood add-on (Hokkaido scallops, prawns, clams) at Red Kettle @Starling Mall. It was delicious and pleasing to the eyes. Its price, like everything else in that restaurant, was also 'delicious' :D That's why we rarely dine there. 

Also, I just checked Google reviews: overall rating went down and reading the recent 20 reviews, almost all the bad reviews were about bad service. Naturally customers are more sensitive to quality of location, food and service if the prices are high. Luckily we haven't experienced bad service.

Wow, it's kind of insane how much your Seremban beef noodle meal cost. The pasta does look 😋.

Cvons,
Individually, noodle cost RM 16.90, pudding cost RM 9.90, lemongrass tea cost...maybe RM 9?, the bowl of vegetable probably cost at least RM 3, which comes to RM 38.80.

Initially, I too thought the noodle itself was expensive. However, it's a special noodle (back in Seremban, it already cost RM 12 and much less ingredient and noodle) , sold by a single shop (rather than in a kopitiam or a food court) and it's in Uptown. The more appropriate comparison should be with, say, pho beef frrom An Viet or Pho Vietz, which costs about RM 22.90.

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I ...

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba...
