The Daily Dose of Chemo

From part 1 ...

Exiting the first hall, we entered another one just behind. This one had a few stores selling Raya cookies. One of my firned noted to me later that the cookies here were gorgeous. We did our buying already at Bangsar Village prior and since we did not plan to buy here, we just had some quick looks. Most of the stalls here use scan codes and online banking. Therefore, you didn’t have to bring along plenty of cash. We ended up buying some fish skin snacks here instead!

Now for some kueh raya ...But we ended up buying some fish skin snackFancy learning how to make ketupat?The place was still packed at this hour and we moved on to another hall. This one was similar to the first one, mainly selling clothing items. There was one selling Raya Cards but the queue was just too long. More browsing ...

Almost an hour passed. The live band was still playing, and there were children playing with bubbles. A great sight. We could have sat down and have more drinks but it was approaching 11 pm already. Rather than call the Grab at the entrance, we decided to walk down Jalan Riong to the main road and pick one from there. Less crowded and less chance of getting stuck in a jam. Sure enough, we were back home 10 minutes later.

Sitting down for a quick snackThe late shoppers ....A quick look at the program ...All in all, it was a great event. Don’t get me wrong, Riuh had always been fun but after a while, it tended to get repetitive. Having a Raya theme helped this time around and it exposed us to more vendors and judging from the number of business cards Anita picked up, it was great for the local business. Some of the stuff here were quite difficult to get anywhere else. A win-win situation ...

The children having a bubbling good time ...If you ask me, making own cards looked too tediousNice sketches ...Time to go ... Good Night!Riuh is a monthly event held at APW Bangsar at Jalan Riong. At the other times, APW also has a selection of restaurants and cafe which were worth a visit ... a definite instagram-worthy spot!
