YES ! IT'S AT ESSENCE CAFE - 2ND FLR HOLIDAY PLAZA , just above 'Fire' DVD. Me and grumpy get our flix from there cos Boon, a funny curly-haired ah beng, works there . Boon says they always get laksa from essence . He said they can even smell it coming through the air vent in the ceiling. I told him you are so bullshit but he say really. Trust him anyway, his movies were clear. So we went to try, very hungry already. Almost 3pm and we haven't eat lunch yet - Grumpy's horns were coming out.
The joint was quite dingy and smelt strongly of fish but the laksa was shiok. Got the right balance of sour and hot. And only RM4 / bowl ! Singapore where got such things ?! Even an (uncomparable) bowl at Penang Kitchen costs at least $6. Anyhow, at essence, the noodles were a bit chewy but the most impt component is the stock which was well done.
Dragged Grumpy to the PC show on Sat. Bloody crowded. Grumpy said it reminded him of xmas time . Got a plain unfanciful 500GB hdd for $130.
I thought it was a good deal, works out to be 26 cents a gig.
