The Coffee Shop

-
This coffee shop (hehehe) is situated at Aman Suria, near Guardian. If I remember correctly, it opened sometime early this year or late last year.

One day, in a land far far...wait, wrong post.

One day, I followed Ban's family to have lunch there. I was feeling a little adventurous (and yet prayed that my stomach could take it) and so I ordered their Penang laksa:

Coffee Shop 1

Coffee Shop 2

I was surprised by the variety of ingredients it had: long bean, beansprout, fried tofu, fishcake, egg and I think there was sliced chicken breast. They were all good.

The noodle wasn't very spicy but I needed to sip some barley water at times. For some strange reasons, the people there were not eager to take drinks order. I had to try hard to flag someone to do so. Same thing happened when we went there the second time. Sheeesh.

Fortunately, overall the noodle was delicious and hence I had it again during the second visit.

The shop also served Penang prawn noodle, chicken rice, roasted pork rice and BBQ pork rice. I would highly recommend the laksa and according to Ban's mum, the prawn noodle was good too. The only downside is that you probably have to work hard to get drinks.

Their business was not doing well. It was quiet both times (we were the only customers) and yet it was during lunch time where most shops normally get many office workers as customers. Not sure how long this shop will last.

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

Sudden lower body pain

-
About two weeks ago, my mum developed pain in her pelvic bone, much more on the right side, and squeezing pain in her legs, with occassional spike in pain. She was managing it with paracetamols, 2 tabs three times daily.  Since we didn't know any particular orthopedist in private hospitals (it was only recently that I remember Dr Prashant ), I targeted one at KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital since it's in mainland Penang (instead of on the island). I made appointment for my mum with Dr Joehaimey since he has the earliest suitable date. The moment she walked through his door, he immediately asked her whether the pain from her right side. We were both quite impressed. He was in turn impressed with mum's prepared list of medication that she presented to him on a piece of paper. The key information seems to be the surgery she had back in 2011 to insert titanium plate and screws in her lower spine. He guessed that there's accumalated wear and tear due to aging. So to confirm i
