i was at the mall last weekend and was just walking around at the food court looking for dinner when i spotted the "panda chinese restaurant" in one of the stalls. i remembered that i read somewhere that they have bubble tea, so i promptly made a bee-line towards it. hehe...
boba-bubble pearl tea with chicken noodles at dhs 13…
some of my close friends will know that i’m a lover of bubble pearl teas! so i just had to try the variety here, to see if they’re anywhere near as good as those we get in m’sia. well, this panda chinese restaurant only has one flavour, that is the original flavour (and it’s not even white like the original flavour in m’sia!), but taste wise, they’re pretty close! yums!! one thing though, the “pearls” (for those who don’t know, it’s those black little jelly-like balls in the drink) are a bit too hard… i guess they don’t make the pearls fresh, but import it in like so many things here.
as for the chicken noodles, the taste is a bit bland. could do with some cut chili in soy sauce, but when i turned to look at the counter to see if they have any, it’s swarmed with people! i’d say it’s the busiest stall in the food court that day. it seems to be quite popular with non-chinese wanting a taste of “chinese food”. but for us chinese, it’s nothing great, really.
the reason i was at the mall last sunday…
while i was at the mall, i did a bit of shopping, some of the stuff as shown in my previous post. on my way to dinner with my trolley full of stuff, it’s really a relief to discovery this:
trolley holding area!
will this work in m’sia? or would all our purchases be missing from our trolleys when we come back to claim them, coz they were stolen by the very person who’s supposed to be watching them (read: the guard)? one thing good about sandland is that petty crime rate is very low. this is because tolerance for crime is low here, so most of the people here would not wanna risk loosing their jobs or worse, being deported back to their country, just for a few rolls of toilet paper or some woman’s clothes that may not even fit their wives/girlfriends!

u mean the items were paid alr? wow.. i dun think it will work in sg too.
yups, all paid items!
Wah.. I am really impressed! I think my friend went to Japan also, find the people there honest! Her friend left her camera in the toilet and only found out some 10 minutes later. They went back to the toilet, it was not there. The camera was already sent to lost & found counter and they got it back!
Here in Malaysia - sometimes your own housemate also can steal your things.. sigh.
yups, i read an article about the japanese a few years ago... they send everything they found to lost & found until the centres run out of space! if that happens in m'sia, i think everyone would wanna work at these lost & found centres, so that they can bring home those stuff! hehehe...
