Ascott Kuala Lumpur, Weekend getaways

I can’t believe it’s been so long since my last post. And, I can’t believe little one is growing up so fast. Time flies (sob…sob). It was just like yesterday the Dr plopped her onto my chest after going thru 15 mins of pushing (I’m so thankful it was a short and pain free labor – Epidural is AWESOME ! ** please Don’t judge me ! ;p).

We took a little mini weekend getaway to KL recently. It was my cousin’s wedding and the thought of fighting the KL traffic on Saturday night with a toddler is no fun. So, I convinced hubby that it would make more sense to stay over in KL for a night.

After checking around for a suitable location – it has to be near the wedding dinner location at a reasonable price. I was pleasantly surprise that Ascott was having some sort of hot deal and the price for a Premier 2 bedroom (with breakfast for 4 person) come up to about MYR 865nett. Since it was a little getaway for us, we decided to splurge a bit.

Hubby hate traveling (with me) since he claim it always feel like he’s bringing the whole house with us when we travel with LO. Yes – I’m an OCD mummy. So, I can be quite extreme when packing.

The apartment was beautifully decorated and clean!!! Cleanliness is very important for me when I book a hotel. Having a kitchen is really useful especially for preparing LO’s porridge. I love green decor!

Awesome big apartment with fully functioning kitchen.

We checked in around 12pm and I was famished. Hubby proposes we order room service. Tada – here’s what we order for 4. Interestingly, the food arrived in containers! It’s weird, but I actually love it. It gives me the impression the food is well covered and clean. I washed up the containers and recycle it.

Yumm.. Lunch. Simple and nice

I also love the bed! It was so nice and soft but still has good support. Our master bedroom has a little balcony which you can walk out and enjoy the view of (ONE side) Twin tower. LO loves standing at the window looking out. Probably because this is the first time she’s been on a high rise building.

Little one enjoying the outside view

The only gripe I have is the toilet doesn’t seem to flush well as it sort of gives the toilet a bad smell. I was so looking forward to enjoying the beautiful bathtub. But, soaking inside a stinking toilet …? Luckily, the other toilet was ok.

Their swimming pool is on the roof top at Level 22. The view up there is beautiful. You can see the KLCC garden and water fountain. The children’s pool is located at a hidden corner. We brought her to go swimming around 5pm and it was good that that area was shaded from the sun. It was definitely a nice size baby pool, with 2 steps level. Unfortunately, I don’t have any nice photo of the baby pool. I manage to grab 2 pictures of the adult pool from their online website… So nice, right?!

Breakfast selection in the morning was a wee bit slim. I’m not surprise since they charge about RM18++ / person? We decided to have a quick bite and then head back to the apartment to rest and pack.

It was a great mini getaway. Can’t wait to do another one.

awana, genting highland, jungle, jungle trekking, leech, nature

The last time I went jungle trekking was probably when I was in high school (which is more than 15++ years ago!!!). So, when my oversea friends who were visiting Malaysia expressed their interest to do jungle trekking, I was excited and weary at the same time.

Excited because it was different from the norm. Most Malaysian are guilty of bringing the visiting guest to eat in practically all our favorite food / restaurant during the short 3 or 4 days here.

Weary because I am not as young as I used to. And, the only exercise strenuous exercise I do is vacuuming and mopping floor at home (which is also not very often). Another reason is the blood sucking leeches!

Awana offers 2 interesting jungle trekking trail, the Nature Trek (1.8km – an hour plus at RM 30/pax) or the Ecotrail (3.8km – 3 hours at RM 75/pax).

Guess which I convince everyone to take? Hehehe.. Yes – shorter one, of course!!!

It was really tiring at certain part but overall it was a very pleasant experience (aside from the one I walked into a low branch… and got bitten by a leech. Sob sob sob)

Look how FAT this little guy got… T_T so pain…

 

Food Crawl : Stop 7 – Kedai Kopi Sun Yuan Foong (Ipoh)

Butter Kaya Toast, half boil egg, ipoh, Sun Yuan Foong, White Coffee

After a satisfying meal, what do we need now? Coffee, of course !!!

Since we are in Ipoh, it is only right we look for the best Ipoh white coffee. One of the members in this trip told us that this is the restaurant to go for white coffee. After hunting for it a bit, we finally located the Kedai Kopi Sun Yuan Foong along Jalan Bijih Timah. Supposely, this is the origin of White Coffee.

The smell of coffee being roast is so welcoming. We quickly found a seat and order our coffee. The coffee is served in a tall glass packed with ice. The first sip was kind of shocking for me as the coffee was super thick and sweet. But, after mixing the ice well, it was really nice. A tad too sweet for my liking. But, overall very good white coffee indeed.

And how can you have white coffee without the customary butter kaya toast and half boil eggs? Look at the thick sliced of bread. Yay!!! They use the Hainan bread which is so hard to find nowadays in KL. The egg was not bad but I think I would have preferred if they let it cook for another minute or two. This was a little too raw for my liking.

and hence, this concludes our Penang Ipoh 3 days food crawl mission. I think everyone of us parted really happy and satisfied. Not only was the food good. The company was great too.

It was fun and tiring at the same time!!!
