On Midweek morn nosotros decided to come across a piddling to a greater extent than of KL via the hop-on hop-off bus. At RM38 ( $12.90) for a 24-hour ticket, it's priced real much for the tourists without beingness outrageously expensive. (However, if you're alone planning a duo of stops inwards your day, other forms of world carry are a lot cheaper.) We made our showtime halt on Bintang Walk, a densely packed strip of shopping malls. None of the trade took our fancy but the air-conditioning was a relief from the unrelenting pasty air exterior together with of course, Michael is ever upwards for a coffee.
We checked out i of the kopitiams. At this i the hold off staff didn't seem to talk English, yet it was soundless piece of cake to fellowship - nosotros were presented with single-use newspaper menus where nosotros marked what nosotros wanted. Michael's Iced Blended White Coffee was cold, it was java together with it was RM5.90 ( $2.00) together with then it was perfect.
Keen for something refreshing together with game for something new, I tried an Iced Cucumber Sour Plum (RM3.50 $1.20). It was sure enough cooling together with definitely refreshing inwards its means but frankly, it was non my kinda drink. Oh well.
Kaya toast (RM2.20 $0.70) is my kinda snack though - peculiarly when the toast is crispy with a piddling butter on the outside.
Mall-trekking further, nosotros gradually made our means to our tiffin destination, an all-vegetarian nutrient courtroom called Blue Boy. When nosotros got to what seemed similar the correct address, nosotros hitting the bird block pictured above. It didn't hold off promising or welcoming. But give thank y'all the Supreme Master nosotros bothered to corporation circular the side, because at that topographic point it was!
Hot, dazed together with relieved, nosotros wandered inwards together with found ourselves a table.
Before we'd fifty-fifty had fourth dimension to assess the options or the physical care for nosotros were greeted yesteryear a friendly staff member, enquiring what we'd similar to eat. I hadn't a clue!
Michael, however, knew he was later about char kway teow together with our host had it sorted inwards minutes. This was a tangy, noodle-y care for - rich with tofu, tamarind, soy sauce together with simply a hint of chilli. If anything, the estrus could direct keep been turned upwards a piddling higher, but at RM4 ( $1.40) y'all couldn't actually complain.
To me he asked, "Can I brand a recommendation? Have the curry noodle. Can y'all accept chilli?" I meekly replied that I could accept a piddling chilli together with went with his tip. Naturally he was correct on the coin - the curry noodle soup (RM4 $1.40) was tremendous, with a lip-smacking medley of veges, tofu puffs together with mock meat slices alongside the noodles together with broth. The chilli, I could handle. Just.
With a few spare tables dotted around, nosotros didn't experience rushed. Michael finished my curry noodles together with I prodded the unusual-looking lime inwards my iced tea (RM2 $0.70). All it took was the showtime displace of gathering our bags together with about other staff fellow member was upon us, sorting out payment at the table. Too easy! Well, it was in i trial we'd found the place.
After a piddling to a greater extent than wandering, nosotros returned to the double-decker together with travelled onwards to Chinatown together with the Petaling market.
The marketplace position is best known for its simulated designer gear together with pirated DVDs, which the stall holders showed off to anyone inside earshot.
We resisted the merchandise, concentrating on the fruit...
... together with the cendol!
These king-sized cups of cendol supplied about much-needed fluid, equally good equally the novelty of canned corn alongside the beans together with noodles.
Eventually I was utterly wandered out. Unable to drag myself to the nearest park, nosotros ended upwards simply sitting together with resting on a modest piece of grass yesteryear the side of the road. Once the clock ticked yesteryear 5pm nosotros agreed that nosotros could legitimately consume an early on dinner at a nearby vegetarian restaurant, Fatt Yan.
This turned out to hold upwards about other Supreme Master establishment, together with nosotros were treated to about other friendly together with chatty staff fellow member on the floor. Like our host at lunch, he knew what nosotros needed to fellowship improve than nosotros did, lining us upwards with spicy chicken rice together with Mongolian rice (RM5.50 $1.90 each). This was just what I wanted to consume at that moment, filling together with a piddling spicy without beingness excessively rich. As nosotros finished our repast nosotros heard a piddling of our host's yesteryear travels to Commonwealth of Australia together with he fifty-fifty brought out i of the 'Chinese lemons' that had been used inwards my honey-lemon drinkable - it was simply similar the limes inwards my lunchtime iced tea.
Exhausted together with good fed, nosotros returned in i trial once again to the bus. Following its loopy path piece of cake dorsum to our hotel, nosotros glimpsed about of the attractions we'd hold upwards missing out on - the National Museum, the Bird Park, Titiwangsa - all of them placidity or unopen this belatedly inwards the day.
