Tuesday Morning

It was public holidays today. Last night, we jus stayed at the hotel after a nice early dinner at a restaurant in town. The food was actually quite good and we arrived back at the room with our tummies full. The next thing to do was just to chill, watch the TV and sleep.

The boys loved it as they could just stay on the room without needing to do anything. Great holiday plan as far as they were concerned. Forget about going for night safari or anything like that.

So, we woke up this morning refreshed. Irfan was still in bed while Idlan was staring at the TV. Anita and I ventured into town to get breakfast. Being Tuesday, the main market was not opened like they do on Sundays. So! The choices were limited. The food was still good ... and cheap though.

I had one of the best bowl of mee hailam I had ever had just now, at a stall in town. That should keep me going until lunch.

Now that breakfast was sorted, I quite like the idea of walking into town with my camera. Some of the old shophouses there were just begging to be snapped!

Laksa Anyone?

One of the main attractions at Kuala Kangsar was its laksa. But as usual, it was pretty difficult to get the authentic taste. Most of the joints seemed to be commercialised and you'd be better off getting laksa in KL which tasted better.

We stopped at the main bazaar complex in town as it was open on the Sunday evening and left disappointed. Maybe we should've been picky. The stalls nearby was closing up when we passed by and we didn't have much of a choice.

Off we went to order some laksa. It was not exactly tasty, the portion was pithy and it turned out to be more expensive than we expected and the place was dirty and full of flies. No win unfortunately.

Irfan was unstoppable soon afterThat didn't stop Irfan from enjoying his afternoon meal. He finished his plate of laksa, with extra bits of egg yolk. He sampled my ABC and decided against it after a few sips.

So, we should've done some homework and find a better stall. Better luck next time.
