Last evening in KL. We were nearly uptight about going back to Singapore, and facing all the work shit even though there is still a Labour Day holiday for us to rest before work resumes. We rushed to eat as much goodies in KL as possible. As of all other trips, only god knows whether when will get back.

We went back to Jalan Petaling for dinner and some last minute shopping as Bb (my ex) needs to get some stuff for her mum (in the end, I got a Tiger Beer T-Shirt for myself). Schedule was in fact very tight as we still have to go to KLCC (Twin Towers) to take a look and back to Bukit Bintang for some real "last-minute" shopping. Bb did get some stuff and we were the last few shoppers that left Lot 10 Shopping Complex that evening.

I made a tactical error and bought Express Pagi train back to Johor Bahru whereas we could have taken the afternoon train (Express Raykat) instead. That would had provided us some time to catch some more sleep, eat a proper breakfast and to go walk around Bukit Bintang again. Oh well, but I suppose everything was ok. We woke up 730, rushed like mad but made it for the train in the end. Bb got a Ta Pao (big bun) for breakfast.

Home (Sillypore), it's so strange that we can't live without it. Till the next time, I suppose....

   

Signboard says Air Mata Kuching (cat eyes water). This is actually a dried Longan drink brewed with Luo han Guo, Rock Sugar and winter melon. It is supposed to be very cooling to the body, and we could taste the bits of winter melon. Though I thought it was damn sweet and not-at-all thirst quenching. Rm1.20 per cup at Jalan Petaling.
Bb (my ex) eating Claypot rice at Jalan Petaling. We ordered a 2-man portion Clayport Rice with a vegetable for Rm17. It wasn't mind blowing, but the idea of streetside stalls and eating authentic Claypot rice always makes Singaporeans excited.
Bb (my ex) at Rotiboy outlet in KLCC. The self-confessed Rotiboy (a.k.a Bb) addict got her Rotiboy just 60 secs after leaving KLCC train station. It was piping hot and tastes just like Singapore's Rotiboy though I'm not sure how long can this fab last?
Petronas towers from the midget. We were like midgets, no ... should be ants as compared to the magnificant Twin Towers. It was a Saturday evening and there were alot of youths sitting around in the park. Not a good location to take photographs, but I suppose for first time vistors like me, it was ok.
Bb (my ex) at Bukit Bintang night market eating "Guang Fu Chao" (Cantonese style Hor Fun, Rm 5) and Portuguese Ikan Bakar (BBQ fish, Rm10). I suppose the "Guang Fu Chao" tasted better than the "Fu Jian Chao", and should be more adapted to Singaporean taste. The BBQ fish was a bit different from the local version, as the fish with the Sambal Chilli was done up with aluminum foil and banana leaf (as base) and grilled on a charcoal pit instead of BBQing it entirely with banana leaves and a flat pan. The fish was ok though. We still don't have a damn idea on why it is called Portuguese Ikan Bakar.
Photo-taking session time with the newly bought Tiger Beer T-shirt (Rm20) in the hotel room with Bb (my ex) . The Tiger Beer was bought specially for the occasion (Rm6.20) and people who know me will recall that I hate Tiger Beer.
I just had to pose for a corny picture when I'm in overseas even though Beer was fuc*ing expensive. Drunk on the hotel room couch.
Next morning and we woke up to perform the routine of taking pictures of the room and us with our ever-reliable timer-activated camera. Both of us just woke up and felt quite stoned.
Bb's (my ex) right hand and Ta Bao. It doesn't look that big on picture but we thought that it was really huge. We should have taken a picture of the ta Pao together with Bb's stomach because the whole damn thing went in!
The eloping couple (now no more) strikes. Fucke* up feeling of going home. On train and I think we were reaching Segamat. Both were stoned and we need to catch up on sleep.
