Can there ever be a quiet coffee shop? From the mamak stalls, to the Kopi Thiam and up to Coffee Bean & Starbucks, there is no peace and quiet. Mainly it is a place for mingle, business, and pure Malaysian style lepak, all these coffee shops are always vibrant with loud customers. This is not only in Malaysia, its the same over in the US too. After all, what could one expects, it is a public place, and a public place is never quiet, only the library I guess…

If you been to the Old Town Kopitiam, you would probably have tried their Kaya Toast bread. Today, I made a startling discovery, the toast butter is just a tiny weeny piece and only covers the side, for cosmetic purpose. From the side, the toast looks great with a huge piece of butter, but then, once open up, its just a butter strip. I was expecting the butter to cover the entire toast, I guess my expectation turned into a disappointment.

The title may be superficial, but this is the observation that I made on my morning romp at e-gate Starbucks. Of the 9 laptops seen in the Seattle’s best, 5 of them were Dell, 2 HP, 1 IBM and 1 Asus.
