Chinese New Year celebration in Kuala Lumpur 2013

Our 2013 KL trip was very nice. There were trips to Mid Valley Megamall, JUSCO Taman Equine, Pavillion, IKEA, a quick stop in TESCO extra Ampang, KLCC and that's about it. Forget to mention Zoo Negara and KLCC Aquaria.

As usual, KL trip was more like makan trip and window shopping attempts.

Subway's meal was great. But I couldn't make up my mind of which meat filling to go with the sandwich. I ended up having a Veggie Delite.





We're staying with my sister-in-law and her husband. Darrien acquainted with her uncle soon enough.


While Wife was busy shopping for our New Year clothes, Darrien and me spent time at Midvalley's Jusco playground. It was empty and our boy was shoving and riding every rides and games there.


We had our CNY reunion lunch at Pavillion's Suki-ya restaurant. For its famed paper thin beef, mutton and chicken. I couldn't remember how many trays I had. Probably ten trays!



Each tray contained 8 pieces of meat and using chopsticks, I picked up 4 pieces of meat and let them boiled in the given soup.


Just nice. A mouthful of really aromatic, delicious, hot meat! Bon appetite!


Hello Kung Kung and Ma Ma
Pavillion was decorated with lots of red lanterns.

We finished our lunch at around 12.30pm and we waited more than two hours for its acrobatic lion dance (which only lasted for 15 minutes).


Almost every evening, while in KL, I tried to bring Darrien for his run in the playground.

 

He loved the evening walk very much.

Can you see the playground?
During the New Year day holiday, we drove to Zoo Negara for Darrien's second visit of his life. He was excited and kept looking for the 'new' animal whenever we reached another enclosure.


Darrien took one of the stalks left by the staff, to feed the big-horned bull
The animal show was good and we enjoyed the animals' perfomance.




Sugar cane was sold for RM3 a piece at the elephants' enclosure.


Darrien tried hard to pass the cane to the elephant but he couldn't reach the trunk.




Frustrated, Darrien threw the cane towards the Jumbo but it missed. It ended into the drain.

We spent four hours there. Weather was cloudy and the boys enjoyed the trip much.


After the day trip, we ate our lunch at the famed Nak Won BBQ Korean Restaurant at Ampang. As the days passed, we even ate at their parent restaurant at Taman Desa.

For a total bill amount of RM96, we ordered marinated beef which came with the side dishes


Fruit salad as side dish
We had their steamed egg in hot bowl.


Darrien's favourite dish
And their pancake too.


I almost forgot about the meat. As the kids were with us, we asked the waiter to barbeque the meat.

The soup base tasted like the Chinese taucheo but nonetheless very nice.


Happy Chinese New Year 2013!
