Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: Hornbill Restaurant and Cafe

My father loves Hornbill. He kept on telling me that I should try it out the next time I visit my ate. I have other restaurants in mind to visit for our first day in our recent trip to Kuala Lumpur. But my ate have other plans and eating in Hornbill is one of them. 

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: Titiwangsa Lake Gardens (Night Shoot)

My sister and brother in law took us to Titiwangsa Lake Gardens to show where Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz's film I Miss You Like Crazy was filmed at (ha-ha). After our night shoot, we watched the movie in the comfort of my KL home (nuks!) but I fell asleep and wasn't able to catch the Titiwangsa scene. (ha-ha)

KL, Malaysia: Nando's Peri-Peri Chicken

One of my friend who's staying in Singapore told me not to leave Malaysia without eating in Nando's. It's one of the most popular peri-peri chicken restos not only in Malaysia but in the world (i guess). I googled "peri-peri chicken" and Nando's showed up practically every pages. Cool.

KL, Malaysia: Menara KL Tower

After our visit from the super jam-packed IKEA (yes! there's IKEA in KL!), my sister's family took us to Menara KL Tower for a quick trip. I initially wanted to eat there because there's a revolving restaurant called Atmosphere 360 situated in this famous tower. But due to time constraints, plan was put to junk.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: BBQ Gangnam Style Korea

Wanna take a break from chicken rice and nasi lemak? Well, BBQ Gangnam Style Korean Barbeque is a great way to ease your "umay" factor.

Gastronomic Adventure

Traveling to another country doesn't only mean visiting its famous destinations. It also means making yourself available to try out local food or cuisine regardless its tastes, look or smell (talk about exotic food!). For me, tasting local dishes is the most exciting adventure a budget traveler like me could jump into ;)

Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie

 

French Cafe? In Malaysia? I was looking forward to trying out Malaysian dishes for the whole span of our trip. Since my ate said it's worth it, so we gave it a try. After a tiring photowalk in Batu Caves and drooling over chocolates at Berly's Chocolate Factory, we headed to Levain for lunch which is just a street away (and yes walking distance) from Berlys.

I Love Kuala Lumpur!

Petronas Towers

We travelled to Kuala Lumpur via Air Phil Express during Holy Week of this year. It was actually my first time spending Semana Santa outside the country. It felt weird because all my life either I spend it at home watching Biblical film or joining some sort of a retreat activity in a mission house.
