A short half solo getaway

This year ramadan, is a little different for me. My very first time experiencing ramadan in KL and boy did i enjoyed every moment of being here. The bazaar is just way better than back in SG. Lesser crowd and more items at affordable prices. It was also my first time taking a solo flight to and fro.

Team puaka except for Arep was already there when i reached. However, all of them left the following day except for me. We managed to go to the bazaar around Masjid India, there's just so many to look and choose and i'm telling the temptation to spend more than your list is very high! Thank god we were only there for a day and the next day, i did some stuffs on my own. From retail therapy, self pampering to pretty much just spending me time. With the existence of Grab, it makes travelling so much easier to and fro. Plus, it is so much more reliable than taking taxis. I can see the very big difference of how the whole Grab thingy has taken over the taxis here. It's no wonder than the taxi driver weren't happy about this.

Anyway, we went to TAPAK Urban Street Dining for our supper but couldn't grab much as we were just done with our breakfast. So, i went again the following day on my own. It has such a nice atmosphere to dine with live bands and a variety of cuisines to select from. The best thing is that it is not that crowded! :) It opens daily from 6pm - Midnight. If you're doubtful on how to go, you can try locating Corus Hotel as it is just opposite Corus Hotel off Jalan Ampang.

However, i must say they mark up the prices for some stalls. So of the stalls prices are about cafe prices but definitely worth trying!I'm glad to be able to experience the ramadan here, it is definitely an enlightening experience. SG bazaar is just a little too crazy with the crowd and all, in which, is the reason that i've yet to pay it a visit. I've heard reviews of how some food are ridiculously pricey so it makes me reluctant to even want to go there. Maybe, i'll go soon, for like one or two times? We'll see how.

By the way, throughout the trip, i stayed at The Face Suites. If you're coming with a group of friends, i'd strongly recommend this apartment that my friend booked via airbnb. (http://www.thefacekl.com)/(https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/14605871)

This apartment is complete from toiletries, to kitchen appliances to entertainment and recreational activities. The view from the pool is impressive and it has quite a decent gym. The room we booked had a connecting toilet with 2 rooms and a living room and the condition of the place is well kept and good. The location is quite strategic as well, just walking distance to the train station and it is quite easy for Grab drivers to locate this apartment.

That's all for today, looking forward to put in more effort to have a fruitful ramadan in future. Till then, be kind to all.





Yours truly,
saf
