Why like that ?! So cheap or so good ?
My first reaction was "Singapore no bread ah?". :s13:

But I guess those fancy bread of sorts are not as expensive. Above was what I saw at Sutera Mall, where the outlet isn't exactly big. Think the weekend late afternoon scene at AEON Tebrau and Bukit Indah may be more powerful. Or Southkey.

For you to find out.. LOL..

I have to admit.. my wife is 1 that buy in tray at verbana.. LOL
Pricing = compare within malaysia is not say cheap. compare to SG, lets just put it as worth.
Taste = its good or better comparing with BT
why in tray = can freeze up, wanna eat than just oven heat up. Good for kid and family BF for a week.

if compare with breadtalk

floss bun at breadtalk $2.7
floss bun at verbena rm3.8

2-2.5x cheaper than sg price

but i still think breadtalk's floss bun is nicer than verbena's

Today on the bus to/back KSL/Sentral I noticed a few Card transactions failed but passengers were not aware of it & I think Bus Captain turned a deaf ear too.

I think these Cards are not Manja Cards. This is what I noticed: when the Card is tapped the Machine's audio & display (display showed Green) didn't register anything wrong; but a second or two later the machine buzzed & showed a Red Notice saying unsuccessful.

But by then the passenger has already gone further into the bus without realizing these anomalies. I suspect the Bus Captain just didn't want to deal with the situation.

So lesson here is quickly tap & proceed into the bus 😂.

Today went to Lotus's Desa Tebrau, which is next to Aeon Tebrau~

The two storey building is well maintain, have better tenants, clean, spacious than Giant's & NSK hypermarts~ it has a very large Bingxue outlet, decent foodcourt~ other tenants are Mr DIY, Watson, Sketches, arcade, toys~

Inside Lotus's, there's electronic section that sell TV, washing machine, home appliances~

The layout is very spacious, alot of walking space, no worry of trolley knocking to others~ compare to KSL Lotus's is a stark difference~

However, if compare to NSK, I still think NSK more budget friendly eg. Eggs, toilet papers, dried foods~ Lotus's has house brand items which probably cheaper than others though~ :s22:
