KK : Olde Station KopiTiam

*During my Christmas 2007 trip home to Sabah*

One of my favorite destination for shopping in KK is the City Mall which is along the Kolombong-Penampang highway, which means that it’s out of downtown KK.

But don’t think that makes it jam-free. I was told that during certain times of the day, it is better to go through the city rather than use this highway! However this area is usually alright on mid day and being less than 5km from my house, of course I had to visit it for some shopping expeditions…

So a few clothing items later, we hit one of the eatery here.

My sister didn’t recommend the City Mall Food Court and judging from the smell that was coming out of the place as we walked by, I think they have slight ventilation issues and you know what that means to your clothes.

Instead we went to another one of those chain-restaurant called the Olde Station KopiTiam, located on the ground floor.

When it comes to eating outside without the kids, it means only one thing : Spicy Food!

And once I spotted the word “curry mee” of course, I couldn’t pay attention to whatever else they have in their menu! So curry mee was what I had while sis Caneeliea had the “nasi lemak” - which she said was super spicy.


They looked and tasted good : Caneeliea

When we were there the place was busy but we I waited until everyone left I took these pictures.

One funny thing I noticed about this place was that they adopted the customer greeting style you’d usually get at Japanese restaurants and it was a boisterous “Hello!” and “Bye!” by all the staffs to any incoming and leaving customers.

FYI : Advance Lawsuit Funding

Do you know that a company can sue another company and get some advance money even before the lawsuit is settled?

Apparently this Commercial Lawsuit Finance is offered by some lawfirm which basically meant that when a company sues another company, they can apply for advance funding to cover their running costs (payroll, operation expenses or purchase of inventory and equipment), while waiting for their case to be settled.

One such company, LawMax, offers this kind of advance funding on the condition that the company repays them on winning their lawsuit or when the company obtained an out-of-court settlement.

You pay them back only if you win your case! Imagine that.

So companies with promising lawsuit cases on contract disputes, trademark and copyright infringement, fraud, wrongful death claims and etc, this is one kind of service which you might want to find out more about.
