Views of KL

So yesterday I went to KL to visit my relative's vintage restaurant somewhere near Petaling Street and Jalan Sultan. :D You know, I think a lot of us, Malaysians, do not really know KL and appreciate this city. Even I myself, I admit. Because the only places we go in KL is their shopping centers. Flunyway, since we're already around that side, my mom brought be to Petaling Street there. 

My mom told me, in the 70s and 80s this used to be their Sunway Pyramid, their Mid Valley, their One Utama (i.e. their hang out spot).

We went to Central Market too, since also nearby.

Got no time to adjust the settings of my camera, hence, the dark picture.

Nah, most of us locals don't even know how our central market looks like, I'm giving you some idea. : D. Traditional designs that those ang mohs will like, but we'll all like.. meh...

Flunyway, my relative has got two branches of his restaurant, one in central market, and another somewhere near Jalan Sultan. He sells nyonya dishes, those traditional dishes one. 

If you want to go, here's the address and name. : D

Beautiful vintage interior. Real antiques. Really really nice!

 This is antique medicine rack. You know how in Chinese medicine pharmacy they have racks for different medicines. Like this rack. Used to store medicines. :)

Ate this vege wrap with err.. mangkuang (I think) and pai tee. : D Super naise to eat.

After that, went to Petaling Street. It's true that well, it's all foreign workers there now. :( Nothing really much to see except for fake LVs and Prada. I think Jonker Street is much better cos' they sell more vintage stuffs that are really fun to look at. Here, it's all fake stuffs expecially bags. Nothing really much to look at. Also, the ones selling are all the foreigners. :((

Hehe, managed toquickly  take a picture of him when he turns his head here. See, sell bags all foreigners. Totally lost the touch of locals in it. I guess partly is also because nowadays we don't know how to appreciate our own city that others are taking over. In KL, we only talk about shopping centers and it's like, that's all we have in KL. Honestly, some friends in the overseas asked me if there's any touristy places to visit in KL and I don't even know. The only place I know is KLCC.

Headed to relative's second restaurant somewhere in Jalan Sultan. It's at quite a hidden place, I don't know where is the address but that's the name of the restaurant.

His second restaurant is smaller and more narrow. But it has got more customers and most of them are ang mohs relaxing. :)

Government initially wanted to demolish buildings in Jalan Sultan to make way for the future MRT but then because of protest, I think they now cancel the plan. Some people the started painting this wall to ahh.. confess their love for this street. 

After that, because there's nothing much to shop in Petaling Street, we decided to head on to Pavilion. Shopping again... T.T

When we're done at night and wanted to head back, we came out of Pavilion and boy, I've always loved views from Pavilion's entrance especially at night. : D

I love how Sephora's building is like at the middle and it's such a beautiful building. 

I also love how Uniqlo's big banner is there, and so many people and stuffs in the city. So lively. : D

That's all for this post. 

Thank you so much for people who come and increase my traffic, hehe. My traffic these 2 days after my previous jumps up so fast. 

thankiu ah, strangers from Innit.
