Kopi, wayang & laksa

Was at this mall again today to meet up with a few friends.

Ever since The Pavillion opened, Bukit Bintang is getting more and more congested

Awie a regular reader & recent blogger (in the red shirt & cap) joined us today for the first time

Had time for a quick coffee break at the Kopitiam before going upstairs to catch a movie this afternoon.

If you're at this mall, the hazelnut white coffee here is really worth tasting

We watched Alien vs Predator 2 today. Another attempt by Hollywood to rake in the big bucks by getting these two well known monsters/aliens/creatures/whatever to fight each other and kill lots and lots of innocent humans in the process. The action sequences were great but after already seeing these two ugly things fight each other in the first movie, there's really not much else to expect from this sequel.

I give this movie a 6.5/10. Go watch it if you're a big Aliens or Predator fan (ada lagi ke orang yg minat cite Predator ni) The best thing about AVP2 for me was the final words of one of the irrelevant sacrificial characters in the movie:
He said to his little daughter "Look, no monsters..." You can guess what happens immediately afterwards.

After the movie we went down to the food court but there was not a single empty table in the entire foodcourt. So instead, lunch today was at Laksa Shack. It's been a while since I last tried the food at Laksa Shack and they seemed to have expanded their menu to include several other dishes in addition to their more popular different types of laksa.

My asam laksa

The last time I tried their asam laksa, it was at the KLCC foodcourt almost exactly one year ago. I recall the gravy being a lot thicker then. The one I had here looked a bit watered down.

Have yet to try the donuts at this outlet. Several friends who have tried it claim it's the best thing they've tasted. Judging by the permanent long queues there at any time of the day, it must be true. I'll try it one fine day when there's less people lining up.
