The car rental is RM 150 for 24 hours, and you must return the fuel to them based on your usage. In the late morning, we took a Grab ride to  Yeow Kee Kopitiam for our brunch (Grab fare - RM 9). While deciding what to eat at this coffee shop, I came across this Ding Bin Hu stall. When I asked the staff what she was serving, she tried to explain. However, I couldn't understand, so she reacted angrily with the tsk sound.  I eventually ordered vermicelli fish ball soup noodles from the next stall. They ran out of kueh teow and instead of vermicelli soup, they served me the dry version.  I waited almost half an hour for this bowl of noodles.  The verm...
