Here I am having a dose of positive energy and thoughts that I much needed by reading THE SECRET. Sometimes, I just need this type of input to feel wonderful throughout my day.
Now, back to the main point of this post. I wanted to share about my trip to KL during January early this year with my BFF, Vivian. It was actually a last minute trip as we stumbled upon cheap tickets online. Costed us RM100++ to and fro which was a good deal. Both of us decided to have a getaway as we just finished our dreadful SPM not long ago. We went without our parents. YES! Just the two of us.
I want to apologise as I lost quite a lot of my photos. I only have 40++ photos left from my few hundred. Sigh, sometimes I do regret changing phones and transferring stuffs. But the good new is, most of my food photos are still here!!! HURRAY!! So this post will be mainly about the food we had in KL.
ALERT: THIS IS GOING TO BE LONG!
At the departure hall of Sibu Airport waiting for our flight but still not forgetting to take selfies.
We stayed at Sun Inn which is just beside Sunway Pyramid. The price was very reasonable. Only RM80 per night but it's budget so you cannot complain much.
Here you can see how crazy we were. We just stormed into Sunway Pyramid at 7.30am in the morning as we could not catch a good sleep. It was such a great experience. We snapped as many photos as we wanted as all of the stores were not open yet and there wasn't any people there to judge. HAHA.
This was our crazy and absolutely insane shopping haul for the first and second day. Actually, half were food while the other half were clothing.
In front of star hill Gallery.
All of these were taken in Pavilion. Ahh, those cute line characters!!
This is a colour changing fountain. So gorgeous. We actually spent lots of time just standing in front of the fountain and staring at its changing colour.
In superheroes shop!!
Ralph Lauren!
Now here comes the FOOD!!
1. Manhattan Fish Market
We dined at The Manhattan Fish Market for our first meal there. We ordered a seafood plater(2nd in the picture) and shared it because of its huge portion. This dish and a drink costed us a whopping RM50. OMG. Dies.
Location: Sunway Pyramid
2. Din Tai Feng
Third to fifth pictures were the food we had there. The pork chop with fried rice was spectacular. Crispy pork chop but not too oily with a seafood fried rice certainly did stimulated our taste buds. The xiao long pau is juicy and the soup was oozing into your mouth when you bite into them.
Location: Midvalley
Our fried rice.
3. Secret Recipe
Vivian's Spaghetti Bolognaise. I ordered a lag sane which tasted super amazing and we also ordered a Sheperd's Pie. Sorry no pics.
Location: Sungei Wang
4. Hui Lau San
This is their signature mango dish we had. Most of the dessets they serve involves mango. So mango lovers, be sure to have a try.
Location: Pavilion
5.Tony Romas
Our iced lemon tea.
Mojo chicken. There were two big pieces of chicken breasts which some sauce. Sorry, I could not exactly remember how it tasted but I can tell you it was so good. You would not feel any dryness of the chicken at all although breasts were used. It was juicy and with the sauce and rice perfect. There was quite a funny incident which happened when we were finding the location of this restaurant. I vividly remembered it was on the first floor of Pavilion during my first visit but when we asked the security guard on duty he told us that it is on the sixth floor. Oh Well.
Location: Pavilion
6.Starbucks
My caramel latte.
We shared a piece of the apple sandwich. I had Caramel Latte while Vivian had Americano.
Location: SS15, near Taylor's College
7. Meet Fresh
Probably there are lots of outlets that serve Taiwanese desserts now but this is a must try. Just look at the amount of taro and sweet potato balls they give. OMG. I love the chewy feeling as it gave me a satisfactory feeling after I ate them. Large portion and reasonable price. Actually, I also wanted to try Snowflake but I could not find the shop even though I followed the directory. Bad luck.
Location: Times Square
8.Wong Kok
The menu is so nice!!
Complementary drinks, soup and dessert that came with our meals as we ordered set lunch.
My noodles.
Fried dumpling.The dumplings were great but overall the food was mediocre. But the price was very cheap, costed only RM10 for a set lunch which includes you main dish, drinks, soup and fruits.
Location: One Utama
8. Moo Cow Frozen Yoghurt
This was the best frozen yoghurt I ever had. The thickness of the yoghurt and the way it melt in your mouth. Heavenly. I actually prefer Moo Cow over Tutti Frutti. But both of us love to binge so we also ate Tuitti Frutti and New Zealand's Natural Ice Cream.
Location: Sunway Pyramid
9.Madam Kwan
As we heard that this restaurant, located at the highest floor of KLCC, was famous for its nasi lemak, we immediately knew that we need to give it a try. So here it is, the renowned Madam Kwan Nasi Lemak which sucked our money. Haha. RM18++ for this dish. The taste was so-so to me and I could have gotten a nicer dish at a cheaper price elsewhere like at Pappua Rich. However, this restaurant was so popular that it was full house on that day and we had to queue to get a seat.
Location: KLCC
10. TGIF
My Tachos
The food here was amazing!!! Especially loved my tacos. It was my first time trying one and I love it.
Location: Sunway Pyramid
KLCC
We also visited Aquaria just to look at sea creatures. My second time there and boy when did it become that small?? Sigh. LOL. We did hollered inside for 2 hours capturing everything we could with our phone cameras. The workers there were also kind enough to help us take this photo.
After visiting Aquaria, we decided to have a stroll in the park outdoors. Of course we remembered to take pictures in front of the landmark of our country. See how tiny I was in front of the gigantic twin towers.
Chinese New Year decorations everywhere during our visit.
Hope this post will give you some idea where to dine when you visit kl the next time. And I want to apologise once again for the low quality photos. All pics were taken by my Samsung Galaxy Note.
