Kuala Lumpur - What to do?

So, my cousins just came back from the US of A for their once in 3 years visit. Understandably it's a HUGE this for my family. 3 years is a long time in the development of Malaysia timeline. So much can happen in 3 years, new buildings and places of "interest" can sprout out like little mushrooms all over town.

So it's no wonder that I have been scratching my head thinking of where to bring my cousins. The first thing I thought about was the endless variety of food that they have been missing out on having lived so far away from home. The funny thing was after one whole week I still can't think of any PLACES of INTEREST in KL that does not involve food.

Hehe... I thought of wanton mee, chee chong fun, yee mee, fried kuey teo, roti, nasi lemak, ikan bakar and the list goes on.
With the list of food, we set out to eat them all at the more famous places in KL.
My cousins being HUGE fans of WANTON mee we set out to find the best wanton mee stall in KL. Having live and grow up in Bangsar, we were pretty bias about the best wanton mee being in Lucky Garden. Unfortunately for us which time we went they were sold out! We decided that it wouldn't be a trip wasted and decided to try the other "famous" delicacy that was just around the corner. Sarawak Laksa, yummy... just the thought of it stimulates my saliva glands and increases my heartbeat! The laksa was super duper yummy, It came with 3 huge(medium) sized prawns, shred eggs, bean sprout, chicken and the yummy chewy beancurd and it was just peppery enough! Simply heavenly!

The next items on our itinerary for the day was Digital Mall and the Movies. Well Digital Mall for the obvious reasons (DVDs, Flash drives, hardwares). Ps if you are intending to buy original software make sure you go to the official dealers. After Digital Mall which was located at SS14, we went to Tropicana Mall for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. Being Wednesday, we only paid RM6.50 (Extra RM0.50 because my bought the tickets through the Iphone app) per ticket which my cousins found CRAZY cheap as it was only about 2USD. They loved the theater so much that they want to schedule a movie marathon for next week.

After the movie, we did some shopping at Tropicana City Mall itself and followed by dinner at Grandma's. Half an hour later, my cousin(local one) decided that we should head over to SS2 for KTZ. They serve the best traditional desserts in town. From the famous icy MAT TOH LOH to the savoury delicacies such as loh mai kai and siew mie (dimsum). We had all the "Loh" and then the savoury seaweed roll and fried tofu. It was AWESOME! as if that was not enough, my uncle suggested we go for grilled sting ray and the works.

Just across the road was the famous "wai xie kai" (translate into the greedy street, pretty funky if you ask me). There we had the grilled sting ray, otak-otak, fried oysters and the chee chong fun. It was all good.

After a day of endless eating we decided to call it a night and continue the next day. After all, there's still the Lucky Garden Wanton Noodles to crave after.

YES it was that GOOD! Still is.
