At Kuala Selangor

As I don't have any clinics, I decided to head out to Kuala Selangor for lunch. Anita and her parents came along. The boys decided to have the morning in bed. And we had our driver to do the driving, so I could just chill on the way there and back.

The food was still excellent and pretty fast despite a decent crowd at the restaurant. The garoupa proved to be a hit and my Dad in law managed to finish it off including the head.

A nice sea breeze to top things off. Now it was time to head home. More to write later.

Back to KL

It was a smooth drive home. We set off just after noon after the boys had their late breakfast. No drama on the way down and it took me around 90 minutes to reach Gombak.

We were starving when we finally reached KL. We went straight to Sakura Kristal and had our late lunch. Tired, heading home next toned it all the photos and videos.

Sunday at Maju Junction

We planned to have a look at MARA Digital last Sunday lunchtime and were deciding on where to park. Traffic was light though but sometimes you might get trapped in long queues. We do not mind a bit of walking.

In the end, we parked at the basement of Maju Junction and as we walked up, we noticed a nice cosy eating area run by Parkson. A nice surprise indeed as the place appeared to be well maintained and the food were reasonable. Not crowded at all for a Sunday Afternoon. Easy decision.

I had some nasi ayam"Real Food, Real People"Everything was nice and cleanMaking our way across to MARA DigitalI had some nasi ayam and Anita had some noodles. Next came the walk to the next block to Medan MARA where MARA Digital was located. We would definitely park here again. Access in and out of the car park was also quite straight forward ….

Birthday Lunch

From my MRSM days, I have a friend who was born on the same day as I am. Each year we wished each other Happy Birthday. A couple of years back, he was taken ill but has since been making good recovery. Since it was right after Raya and I was on a long break, I asked if we could out for lunch.

I also had a friend coming back for a short break from New York, and invited him to join with our parents. Unfortunately my "twin" couldn't make it, but we had a fabulous time with my other friend none the less.

The venue was one of our favourite joint, a Arab restaurant - Al-Halabi - at Pavilon. I thought I eat too much there and spent the afternoon sleeping .... Might as well as the EURO 2016 Final would be later on that night .....

Will be planning another lunch next year hopefully and this time I would make sure that he can join ....

A Day Trip to Melaka

As the traffic died down on the highways, we decided to take a trip out of town. The slight problem with the plan was Idlan contracted some bad bug and was in the toilet all night last night. After sending Irfan to school, we took off with Idlan on tow.

We set off after 10 on the morning, and made it to Bandar Melaka just before noon. Anita wanted to buy some kebaya and had done some research as to where to go. That made things easy as I was able to spend a good half an hour by Stadhuys taking photos and play around with my Theta.

Getting caught in one of the 11 traffic lights coming into the cityYes. We love Melaka too.Yes! It is Hello Kitty. And we rode on one similar.Not a bad idea. Something similar to the "Boris Bike" in London.A mesmerising walk.And you'd never knew what was in store around the corner ...And there was always the river bankThe weather was gorgeous, bordering on insanely hot. We parked at Dataran Pahlawan and took a beca towards Jonker where Anita started her shopping.

Being a Monday and right after a long holiday meant that the place was quieter than I used to, walking around was easy and we got things done much faster. The famous insane Melaka Town traffic was also more manageable.

A quick stop at Hard Rock CafeNice interiorAnd they were still in festive mood ....Food was niceA quick detour before homeWe stopped for lunch at Hard Rock Cafe and decided to start our journey back right after lunch as Idlan was getting grumpy - but not grumpy enough to miss the retail outlet on the way back to KL. The weather was too hot for us to venture deep into Jonker Street anyway.

Another beca trip to Dataran Pahlawan, a quick stop to buy belacan and we were off to the next leg of the trip ....
