KL Once Again..
Went to KL again over the weekend with my seconday school friends. Known them for more than 10 years, yet this is our first overseas trip. =)
Day 1 - 07.12.07
After the no-so-good experience with the hotel on my previous trip, I decided to book a slightly better one located along Jalan Bukit Bintang- Hotel Capitol. RM175 per room per night, RM60 per extra bed. While waiting for our rooms, we each had a welcome drink at the hotel cafe.
My room quite romantic.. eh?
After settling down and refreshing ourselves, we went for dinner at a zi char stall near our hotel. We ordered chicken, prawns, fish and kang kong, and it's only RM90!
Check out the fish!
My friends were really enjoying their food. (top from left) Jim and Jack (bottom from left) Jo and her hubby, Jingwei.
Supposed to go to Little Havana after dinner. But I was having a bad headache and had to go back and rest. How come I always fall sick during a holiday!? Once I hit the pillow, I kong-kas till the next morning... =(
Day 2 - 08.12.07
My friends and I had a late breakfast at Old Town Kopitiam at Low Yat Plaza. It has a similar concept as Ya Kun and Toastbox. Marble round tables and low stools - a perfect combination for an old time kopitiam feel.

Omega soft boiled eggs on toast.
After visiting the famous KL Twin Tower, Jack's uncle brought us to a food stall known only by the locals - Zhuang Yuan Steam Fish Head Food Stall near Chan Sow Lin LRT station.
In Singapore standard, this stall is not even grade F. Seriously. Picture old kampong houses with dirty wet floors, dark and a little gloomy. But the food is damn Bagus! See for yourself. 2 fish heads (2 halves), 1 vege, 1 chicken feet and drinks only RM105! Unbelievable!
After a fulfilling lunch, we took the LRT to Berjaya Times Square. As you can see, we were all confused with the direction of the LRT in KL. This way? No? That way? Hmm...
Cam-whoring on the LRT. (top from left) Ada, Jack, Jo and Jim (bottom from left) Jack, Jim, Jo and Jingwei.
We met up with Gret and Mad, who happened to stay in the same hotel. Went to Pertaling St (Chinatown) and had supper at Jalan Alor. The funny thing is, we had to follow a group of tourists (led by a local tour guide) as we were unsure of the directions. We had to pretend we were from the same tour. =p
Day 3 - 09.12.07
After shopping around our hotel, we decided to chill out at the Starbucks near Sungei Wang (Note: the Starbucks in KL is more expensive than in Singapore) But I guess it's too boring that Jack actually fell asleep! So I suggested to catch a movie at the new shopping mall - The Pavilion.
But we can't decided on a movie, so I gave the next best suggestion - Karaoke! Coincidentally, there's a Redbox Karaoke right in The Pavilion!
Let's go Singing! =)
A 4-hour session with high tea buffet only RM30+ per person! Really a great way to 'kill' time, right Jack? Heh. Thanks people, for giving me such good memories! =)
