yum char @ tmn b.i.l.l.i.o.n.

For those who are living in Cheras Bt 5 or its surrounding area, most would have heard of Tmn Billion :: which is famous as a concentrated spot for cheap western dining (chops, steaks, burgers, jumbo fruit juices, etc. etc.).

The following paragraph is solely based on my memory and opinion, please rectify should there be any errors or misinformation...
The concentration of these western cuisines in Tmn Billion dated back to 1999 or less. During these times, the currently well established shops were just make-shift stalls on the side of the hill (much like what we still see in Tmn Saga). The selling point of the food there were its relatively cheap price and the beautiful scenery of night life.

However, as business grew, the residents in Tmn Billion were unable to tolerate with the commotion generated by these business and therefore staged a protest against them. Relevant authorities took action and demolished these make-shift stalls.

Thus, without any other alternatives, the owner(s) moved into shoplots along the hillside stretch and restarted from scratch. Business were hard initially due to the price hike and the diminishing of hill side view. Alternatives such as live performance and live telecasts on HUGE screen displays were implemented :: slowly but steadily, customers begin to re-patronize the area.

And today, business there is just as good as any other given day. End!

- end of crappy stuff -

Last Friday, due to constant persuasion, nagging and begging by ky, we headed to Rendezvous Tmn Billion for a yum char session :: as usual, only me, mun yee and him. This time, there was something new implemented:

New toy in da house :: we name it the beeper. When initiated, the beeper will send a signal to a device (similar to a watch) wore by the employees regarding the request by table number. Cool yeah?!?!

The Good: Good to use in restaurants to minimize cases of ignoring waiters/waitresses or waiting too long for orders/bills/etc. etc.

The Bad: Bad to be used in Office where your boss keep on beeping for you.

The Ugly: Parents and Children/Husband and Wife tracking each other in da house...

Messing around with the flash and night mode settings in the camera (which both did not produce nice outcomes), nothing beats result from external lighting. Therefore, the revolutionary K700i (my phone lar)was put into action again. This time, acting as an external light source :: making the impossible, possible. Lo and behold:

Yum Seng!
