DCUO: Bruno Mannheim & the Temple of Crime

One of the instances players have trouble with at level is the Temple of Crime and Bruno Mannheim. There's always someone shouting for help in the chat window and I've run many league mates through it. These videos show basic strategies on how to get through this story arc without getting knocked out as well as all the feats that go along with them.

Fish Deboning

This is the deboning of the fish @ Tung Yi Fung. The goal is to filet the fish without flipping it over. This was an OK job as he pushed the veggies off the plate (saved by Uncle Charlie)... and the segment close to the head broke.

There's nothing new here. All stats are the same as before. I just wanted to bump this restaurant up with Auntie Remy & Uncle Charlie's visit.

I'm not a fan of buffets, but I'd have to say that this is one of the better ones. The location probably doesn't help the business much, but it's a nice find if you know about it. With a lunch price of $11, you'd think they would hold back on the good food, but there's actually a full variety of choices. There are no cheap variants of dishes. The soup station is even open for service. Trays at the counter were replaced quickly when they ran out. The environment was actually pretty nice... better than many banquet halls in Flushing.

I actually don't think I ever reviewed this one because I've always taken out from there. This was the first time I ate in. I think UFC shares the title of Best Korean Fried Chicken along with Mad for Chicken. The two are very similar, but I'd say UFC holds the edge in the secret sauce while Mad has the better organic meat. Service is excellent as the store owner is always available and hospitable to his customers. Prices may seem high, but you get a lot when you stop and think about it. The quality of the ingredients is also top notch.

This is supposedly one of the best Chinese restaurants in Elmhurst, but I wasn't impressed by the food. It was OK, but maybe it's just because I eat in Flushing's Chinatown all the time. I guess it could be the choice of dishes as well. For more details, check out the comments on each image. On the plus side, the service was great and the place was clean.
