Shopping and Food Haven

Oh how we had missed KL! It is just the way we remembered it - amazing food and shopping! Adam and I will need to go on a serious diet when we come back but we will indulge while we are here! As soon as we arrived to our hotel, we went on our search for Roti canai, which is a buttery pull apart nan type bread that you dip in curry. We intend to eat it everyday since that is one thing we haven't found I'm calgary! 2nd food stop - find some chicken an beef satays, which was accomplished later on  in the day at the Buntik bintang on a street called Jalon Alor. The great thing about eating out here is you don't have to worry about anything containing Pork because it's a Muslim Country!

We met up with my sisters friends, Zahra and Meenaz, who moved from Ottawa to KL almost a year ago. They were wonderful hosts! We went to khane (mosque) together - which is very secretive there. It was interesting to go in a different country since its always slightly different. We then went to a restaurant called WIP, which was a very trendy restaurant with yummy Indian food. I think the entire restaurant was expats though! Had the best mango lychee virgin mojito ever! We went to Skybar after which is at the top of the Traders hotel - had an amazing view of the Petronas Twin Towers! It was convenient that we were staying close to their place as they were kind enough to let us do our laundry at their place!

In a huge busy city, we bumped into my sister's mother-on-law, Nasim, at KL Sentral station, which was extremely random. The National mosque, Islamic arts museum and the Batu caves are probably the tourist highlights of the city for us but since we had limited time and had seen them the last time, we didn't go again. Masjid Jamek is another nice mosque but was under construction this time. We also payed a quick visit to the Central Market, Merdeka Square and of course the inside of many shopping malls including Suria KLCC, Pavillion, Sogo department store, Mid Valley Megamall, Bangsar Village and a couple others not worth mentioning although Suria KLCC and Pavillion are all that you really need, unless you're looking for something special. 3-4days was far too short for all KL has to offer even though we spent 5 days here the last time. I feel like I could come back here annually and still be entertained. Although I hear Malaysia isn't the best place o travel as a group of girls, Adam and I always enjoy it. We had talked about moving here to work after I graduate from Dental school but obviously that didn't happen. Maybe later in life!
