THAI RESTAURANT in PJ

empire — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 01:11:54 +0800

I dont believe food review videos in socmed. Most are paid by the restaurant owners so the reviews are not true.
However I think the people here are more honest in their reviews so I wanna take this chance to ask for your honest recommendation on which THAI RESTAURANT in PJ serves super delicious food. Any recommendation?

I saw many selling on line. You light up a tealight and it will produce the scent you want. Macam perfume la but supposed to be safe.

Any used before? This is an example below:

LADY OWNER CAR

empire — Sat, 16 Dec 2023 21:01:49 +0800

please dont be a sohai and buy any car owned by women. They are the worst drivers and have shocking bad habits that destroy the car.

So many times I cringed when I saw them reverse the car on a slope... then TERUS put the gear into P WITHOUT pulling the hand brake! Then they walk out of the car without any care. The entire car's weight is on the poor gearbox for long periods of time year after year. WTF?? I told them to pull the hand brake first.... then only put the gear into P. They replied ' No need la! I always do this for so long. My car also never rosak!!'.

OK la...now that the gearbox sudah mau mampus due to their horrible abuse...then decide to sell it and proudly advertised
' Lady owner! Very well maintained!'.

Good luck to the buyer of the car.

empire — Thu, 15 Jun 2023 20:24:00 +0800

I always copy and paste files to bring to clients' offices for Presentation. I have been using Pen Drives (aka Thumb Drive) for many years. I wonder if Micro SD Card is more reliable?

MAZDA CX3 vs CX-5

empire — Sat, 06 May 2023 17:02:02 +0800

I sat in the Cx-5 and i liked the Cx-5. I never got to sit inside the CX-3 cos I dont know anyone who owns this.
Anyone care to give some opinion about the pros and cons of both models?

AVOID these cars

empire — Thu, 04 May 2023 13:35:38 +0800

If you see Car ads with words such as 'Very rare'. 'Only 500 produced in the world'. 'Hard to find model'.' Only 1 in Malaysia'..... stay away!

Understand this: You will kick yourself for being such an ass for buying a rare car. Why? Cos it is almost impossible to find new spare parts! You wanna order from overseas also no use cos these are very rare models and manufacturers are not going to waste their time producing new spare parts for a car that is so rare cos no market.

Pity those who didnt realise what a pain it is to look for new spare parts for their 'rare' cars.

ATRIA MALL

empire — Thu, 20 Apr 2023 20:14:19 +0800

I have not been to Atria Mall since the 1st MCO. I heard many restaurants there sudah gulung tikar including the famous Vietnamese Restaurant at the highest floor.

For those who are familiar with Atria Mall, are there any good eating spots there? Or any New Restaurant there now in 2023?

Hi Guys. I need your advice.
I want to buy a DAC that is strictly for playback music, not home theatre.

What is the best value for Rm500 -600 range ? There are so many on sale in shoppee and lazada... I really confused which is the best value.

I dont want a DAC that is for headphones cos I dont use headphones at all. Hope the sifu's here can advice. Thank you
