Where can we go in KL?
yewjin | September 30, 2008I had a friend from London come visit me a couple of days ago. My friend being single he wanted to see the sights & sound and also the Malaysian women. Me being me - I didn’t know where to take him apart from eating! Well basically when he first arrived and I picked him up from Sentral, we went to an indian restaurant at Sri Hartamas - Yatra. We had our tea and coffee and went back to my place to put his stuff.
At night, we headed to Bangsar as I thought its where the action would be and boy was I wrong - or was it just the ramadan month that is making the places so quiet. We walked around and had a couple of beer at some pub - can’t remember where but there wasn’t much of a crowd. We then had dinner at Madam Kwan and headed to Taman Tun Plaza (the new place with loads of pubs) - went to a couple of pubs - found that there was this particular pub where loads of older men doing funny stuffs with HOT HOT filipino waitress, so we picked a quiet pub or rather an empty pub and watched the Singaporean Grand Prix’s practice session. After that we headed for more drinks at Breakers at Sri Hartamas (some pool place with mainly teenagers in them). And before we headed home, we stop by Devi’s corner to have our roti canai and tea.
Day 2 - lunch at Devi’s Corner, Old Town kopitiam for tea and later went to Solaris for Japanese dinner - this shop serves pretty good ramen. After dinner we went to Masjid India (massive crowd - I think it was last minute shopping before the raya holidays), bumped into a pub cum indian restaurant at Dang Wangi - the owner was running a restaurant downstairs and illegally running a pub upstairs. Pretty dodgy but it was kinda fun - the pub upstairs had even a disco ball and an indonesian girl (who acts as a restaurant waitress in the afternoon, GRO at night) serving you. Other than the dodgy-ness, people were friendly, owners were cool and later we headed to the Asian Heritage Square - On a saturday night this place is dead. We didn’t feel like paying cover charge to enter an empty place, we headed back to Sri Hartamas and decided to hang out at Black Hole - a couple of drinks later and after watching Man U win, we headed to Souled Out for more drinks…. and finally to Devi for late night makan…
Dont ask me about the rest of the days…. I didn’t really realise that KL is so boring. Unlike Bangkok or Jakarta or Singapore where the city is so lively! He didnt want to go to shopping centers - is there any other places to go other than shopping centres?
The last time he was here with his french gf - Sabine, we didnt do much as well - drink, smoke and be merry…
