Yes......BB is very much alive 24hrs a day. There are quite a number of mamaks (local eatery/kopitiam kinda stalls) which are scattered around the area which are 24hrs. Just walk around and you'll find em

There are a couple around the Hotel Fortuna area, one large one opposite Berjaya Times Square and a few a few doors away from Menara Genesis (one of HSBC branches)......all are within walking distance.

Along Jalan Alor there are a number of kopitiams and Chinese eateries as well. The malls are opened from 7am onwards but most stalls & shops are only opned from 10am onwards so the morning part could be a bit boring. I suggest you go on the Monorail for sightseeing early in da morning

If youare arriving on Sunday morning then I could accompany you but other days I have to work so I can't stay till the wee hours hehehe

chrishung · October 15th, 2005, 11:11 PM

Hmm...those monorail tracks. They built a station at BTS then make a U-turn track to a station at BB. And the distance between those 2 stations is just a 4 minutes walk. But then the ticket price is still the same so no complain.

Anyway, those pics pretty much fire up my interest in getting around KL again. Perhaps the next time I go back to Miri I'll make a stop in KL for a few days.

Wow .. that is already lot of help there. no.. no ... don't get us wrong. we are not asking people to drive us around lah.

I will probably find a decent motel around BB area just to offload our luggage. We might walk ard a bit, have a cup of teh in 1 of those mamak stalls and catch a few hrs of light sleep back in the motel before checking in to the hotel proper in the afternoon.

Thanks.

You're welcome

Oh...it is okay for me should I have the time to accompany you (coffee , personal tour or whatever lah). Most motels have day rates so be sure you enquire bout em first. I am just afraid that these motels (although cheap), might charge the full day rate to unsuspecting tourists.

Noted. I will just source fm the net. In fact, i found quite a handful of them along Changkat BukitBintang area. they are really affordable at ard RM40-60/nite ... even if we only 'tumpang' there for 5-6hrs.

Actually, I have been to KL for 3-4times liao, although my last visit was a good 2 years ago. However, this is the maiden trip for my the other half, so I better make it a memorable one! LOL.

OK getting OT. will post some pics of BB when i am back fm KL.

sampai sini aja. *wink*

Lastresorter · October 18th, 2005, 08:51 AM

Changkat Bukit Bintang is a lovely place to live... There're many western restaurants and pubs there so I guess you should be able to hang out abit in that area if you're coming on a weekend. Otherwise, ask some pedestrians for direction to Jalan Alor, there are many chinese hawker stalls there late at night... or if you like, just look for a mamak, they might be somewhere around corners

P/S: I have a feeling you might like Frangipani... go there on Friday night

Frangipani is somewhere on Changkat BB.

We did intend to have dinner at Frangipani but i was told that the food was only so-so and exorbitently expensive. decided to have our dinner somewhere else instead but may still visit their pub on the upper floor after our meal.

I bet you know where to bring your partner in KL then

About clubbing, I've heard that on Sat night some ppl prefer going to Bliss now instead of LQ (I'm not too sure 'coz not in KL)... You gotta check with the locals on where to go.

Thanks for the info. We have since returned from our KL trip almost a week now. I didnt ventured into any of the pubs/clubs because my the other half was very sick after only 2 rides at Berjaya Times Sq! In fact, he vomitted immediately after leaving the dynamite-spin-thingy. And remained quite dizzy for the next few days. Otherwise, we enjoyed strolling along Jln BB, going to KLCC/Aquaria, makan @ Jln Alor and did some selective shopping @ Sungei Wang.

Will just share a few of our snaps here.

***szehoong*** · November 3rd, 2005, 08:14 PM

Did you stay at the Radius? Or Genesis?

Great pics !

Felt sorry for your other half but I do believe you enjoyed your trip rite?

Anyway do come again and give us a buzz when you are down here
