new slippers

I bought a new pair of flip flops to replace my stolen pair. I hope this pair is ugly or at least common enough that no one would want to steal them. Unfortunately, I didn’t try them on before buying them. If I did, I would have bought a pair two sizes larger!

another pair stolen

After my Havaianas were stolen, I bought a ciplak pair of slippers which I leave outside my flat, but even that got stolen. How sad!

best burger in town

After so many months, I finally checked out my friend’s place, the cutely named Palate Palette. I had dinner there last night where I had the best burger in the Klang Valley: the Minimalist Burger, a burger without the frills and fillers, just the patty. It was utterly divine. At RM23, it wasn’t cheap, but it was worth every single sen; we even ordered a second. The Burger Ayam Special from the Ramly Burger stall outside the 7-Eleven at USJ 4 now trails far behind at second place. What is it about Ramly Burger stalls and 7-Eleven stores?

clean and fair elections

From an article in today’s Sunday Star, a newspaper owned by the Malaysian Chinese Association, a component party of the ruling coalition Barisan Nasional: “Contrary to the lingering perception that KL is a pro-opposition city, the Barisan has commanded the lion’s share of seats for several elections as a result of redelineation exercises by the Election Commission.”
