KL

What can I say about KL? It's huge and every part of it is different. Few things though - most parts are clean! Trees everywhere, parks and flowers - it's a very lively city. And the roads! Attention European PMs - this is how a road system should be built! I wouldn't say that there are no jams here especially near KL CC - CC stands for city centre - but still, cars are moving and not just standing still. People are patient, no honking, no sneaky overtaking, so I think we can learn. I haven't seen much of KL I think. Been to the touristic places like, palace, independence square, KL tower. Also visited a few shopping malls - I know I said in my first blog that things are not cheap and I will have to be careful with shopping - but I did find some good items on good price. I bought a new camera a few wks ago, which was a lot cheaper than at home. Also some shopping malls have some great places to spend time at. One of them is Kenko Fish Spa - sounds interesting? It is. They have different sessions, but one of the most famous is the fish pond. Guess you don't know why a fish pond is so famous. Well, these are not ordinary fish, these are called Doctor Fish. There are ponds where people just sit, legs in the water and the fishy will bite the dry skin off the foot / leg. I have tried it with Kálmán and Yew Choong (another colleague). It was fun. It is very ticklish, but it's something you must try if you visit KL - so who ever is coming, get yourself prepared for the experience. :) I have also tried foot reflexology, and I must admit I loved it. It was very painful when the girl was doing it, but after.... it was great! Also there are some very good places to eat in KL. You can find some good places in shopping malls as well, we found a good Chinese in Mid Valley - tried frog there! :) Also YC took us to another Chinese restaurant where we had a huge crab, tiger prawns and noodles. It was delicious!!!
The new IT Director has taken me and YC to an Indian restaurant where we had our lunch on a banana leaf. I know for some people there is nothing special about it, but for me, it was good fun, as I have never tried it before. That food was very yammie too, but you know that I like Indian food. :) I'm sure Santosh remembers what my favourite Indian dessert is, well I have found it in another Indian restaurant, and I have shared 1 portion with my colleague Anna, who never tried it. And guess what did she say? 'I will bring my friend here to try this!' So I'm not the only one who just loves it. :)
I will try to keep this blog updated, but nowadays as I have no company I don't go to many places. :( But you will some update in July when Petr and Robi is here. :)
