WORLD OF NADA: Malaysia

Tokidoki at Fahrenheit

Time to go home but I could still explore KL for a bit because the flight was in the evening. We just ended up spending the remaining hours at Pavilion. Again, I had my breakfast at Ying Ker Lou and after that I knew where to go because I saw it earlier: Batman was entering its 75th year! There were interesting displays of Batman from Bat-mobile, Batcycle, figures, and more. So cool!

Not too hungry but we wanted to try Madam Kwan, a famous Malaysian cuisine chain. We tried its Nasi Bojari and Nasi Lemak. They both taste so good! Last day is the last chance to eat anything I haven't tried. So after that, I kept buying all the food that looked interesting to me.

Nasi Bojari

Nasi Lemak

Rose Apple yoghurt

Bananarama. They call it 'Cutie' for regular size
and 'Sexy' for the large one.

I met my friend there so we ate together with his family at Hiong Mun restaurant. I was craving for the pork by looking at the poster. There was a special package so we chose that because the food offered looked good (the best and most important thing is the pork was included. Big smile :D)

Chocolate galore at the airport

It was a fun trip to KL. I just could forget college thing for a while and feel refreshed. A few years back, my mom went to KL with her friend and looking at KL now, she said KL has improved a lot in many aspects. I wish my city could keep growing like that. Would like to visit more cities in Malaysia!

Had a two-hour drive to Melaka. We're not in Melaka yet, but we stopped at Mini Malaysia & ASEAN Cultural Park. It's filled with Malaysian and ASEAN countries traditional houses. My city also has one like this called Taman Mini Indonesia Indah which only displays Indonesia's traditional house (we have 34 provinces!). But I think in Malaysia, they really take care of the place so it was clean, well-functioned, and very interesting to see. Too bad we could only see the Malaysian houses, the ASEAN countries were being renovated :(.

Finally made it to Melaka. It is the center of Peranakan culture and you can see old buildings with Portuguese, Dutch, and British touch. At first sight, it reminds me of Kota Tua in Jakarta. We had city tour with becak. It was so fun looking through the city and we still could stop at some spots. I felt like I was taken back to the past.

After sightseeing with becak, we walked around at Jonker Street. Here you can see more of Peranakan culture. There is so much to see from temples, shops that sell unique things you might not find anywhere else, mosques, restaurants, and street food. Very interesting!

Baba & Nyonya Peranakan Museum.
Really wanted to go inside but it was closed when I came.

The view would be more interesting at night but we preferred to go back to KL because it would be too long if we waited.

Arrived in KL, our driver showed us Jalan Alor from the car. From what I saw, I just couldn't only look at it, I had to get off from the car right away because it's a street full of food! Locals and tourists were having a great time. This is my kind of heaven. I was speechless. Those food were irresistible, I wanted to try them all. Good thing about not going alone is you could try everything at once without being too full. We're not going anywhere after this, either. Let's party, then! A great day indeed, and a happy tummy :). Since it's very crowded, better keep an eye of your belongings.
