This post here is dedicated to JD and Max - pls get your humans to take a pen and take notes ok. We heard that JD and Max's humans are coming to Malaysia, and we also heard that they plan to stay at Novotel in Kuala Lumpur. We asked Daddy and Mummy about it - and Daddy thought that it would be a perfect place for them to stay there.
But just to make sure, I made Daddy bring me over to Novotel to find out more.

We parked outside Novotel, but had to cross the road...Let me teach you all how to cross the road...
First, we look right...
And then look left...
Okay GO GO GO!! Its clear!!!
Daddy is really slow... mmmphhh!!!
Daddy Daddy!!! Novotel is HERE! Stop staring at those pretty ladies!!!
Mmm okay it looks alright from here; I cant go inside, so I guess I'll have to just smell the hotel from out here. Okay, I think we're good.Come Daddy! Lets go!
Ohh, based on our knowledge of Novotel and its surroundings, we came up with a little sketch.
Just as you cross the road, thats Mummy's favourite place - PAVILION!
There's like Mont Blanc, Hermes, Gucci, Zegna, Versace, Bvlgari etc etc... Oh, and there's also Juicy Couture - where Daddy bought our new birthday collars!This is also the place that Mummy recommends some of the better hairdressers and hair salons. (that would be another post altogether!)
...and then, cross the road, and you have Mummy's other favourite place; Daddy calls it Mummy's 2nd home.. hehehe LOUIS VUITTON and Starhill!!!
As you walk down the street, there's this place called LOT 10. For some upmarket gadgets and techie junks, this would be a good place to go to. There's like a very huge Apple store called Machines in here; and if you look closely, there's also this hairdresser called Toni & Guys, which Mummy says is pretty good too.
If you're looking for cheaper shopping, cross the pedestrian bridge over to Sungei Wang! Sungei Wang is connected to BB Plaza, and this place is HUGEEEE and is ALWAYS PACKED WITH PEOPLEEE!!!! If we're not mistaken, the ground floor is the place for cameras and so on, 1st and 2nd floor is for handphones, 3rd floor for computers and stuffs and the top floor is Daddy's personal favourite - the games floor. Daddy frequents this place for his favourite Xbox360 and Playstation 3 games! In fact, Daddy even bought his first PSP there! Along the way and in some of its lanes are some clothes boutiques...An important note here is that - most of these places tend to overprice their products a bit, but is subject to some good negotiation for a good bargain!
At the back of it (note: still within walking distance of Novotel) is Low Yat Plaza. This is quite similar to Sungei Wang - but very specialized! There's a lot more computer and phone gadgets here - and same thing, you need to negotiate to get the best price!Mmm... thats about all the shopping within walking distance I think...
Our Daddy and Mummy suggest that your humans do the above shopping - if they are not the overly nosy type, they could clear all that in a day... say from 10am right til 7pm... but then again, our Daddy could spend like hours in one place itself cos he just loves his gadgets!
Towards the night, and still within walking distance, just cross the road from BB Plaza is this street full of interesting local delicacies! Its called JALAN ALOR. Daddy and Mummy quite like this street here, as they are fans of various local food...
You can see the vast variety of food here...
There's more food...
And more food...
...and at the end of the street, is Mummy's favourite CHICKEN WINGS!
Oooo Mummy Mummy!!! Can we stop here for some chicken wings???(JD and Max - I'll also be posting up a "Fatty's Guide to the Malay Language" for you all soon yeah...)
As the night gets later, your humans, being from the UK (and as Daddy puts it, he studied there and the UK people just love their cold beer!), there's a good variety of 'watering holes' round the corner...
...come to the road called TENGKAT TONG SHIN, and just gradually walk up the street and there's an array of bars and pubs, as well as a couple of clubs too for your enjoyment...
Okay, I think that pretty much sums up one day of travel and shopping... lets see what I can come up with for DAY TWO... hhehehe..Love,
Fatty
