Kuala Lumpur (KL) is the capital city of Malaysia, a tropical South-East Asian country, neighbour to Singapore and Thailand. In KL city, you can find yourself being immersed in a paradise of tantalising local food, authentic Malaysian styled shopping and many many bargains

The below listed is a guide for those who intend or plan to visit KL city in Malaysia.

Places to visit:

1. Bukit Bintang Area ( alight at Bukit Bintang Monarail Station)

i) Sungei Wang Shopping Centre: a local Malaysian Styled Shopping Centre (Pink Building)

Things to look out for at Sungei Wang include shoes at very attractive prices, trendy apparels, fashionable handbags, accessories, jewellery items, watches and food outlets

Typically Malaysian in nature where you get yourself surrounded by shoppers. Lots of items to view- a pleasure to a shopper’s eye.

ii) Lot 10: Green building opposite Sungei Wang at the junction of Bukit Bintang and Jalan Sultan Ismail.

This place is ideal for shoppers who have an eye for the finer items.

iii) The Ship’ Restaurant: Located along a row of shophouses, 2 units away from McDonalds at the cross junction of Bukit Bintang and Jalan Sultan Ismail; between McDonalds and Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)

They serve western styled fresh seafood and sizzling beefsteaks A must try is their oven Baked Escargots in Cream Sauce. An authentic western styled restaurant with internal dcor theme of a ship’. Very nice ambience and suitable for a romantic dinner with a Valentine’.

iv) Secret Recipe Restaurant: Next to the Ship’ Restaurant

They are famous for their award winning cheesecakes and dishes. My personal recommendation is their Chocolate Indulgence’ Cake. A taste of its quality would tell you that the restaurant is the brainchild of a cake lover. Main Course to try include their Lamb Stew and Thai Styled Fried Rice, Pasta and others.
