Nuisance knock

Kuala Lumpur - 'knock', 'knock'....I open the door "your shower has problem". No!@#~ 6am......I went back to bed.

I had lunch with my parter at Tony Roma's restaurant @ Mid Valley - which is famous for the ribs. Because they are Halal certified they don't serve 'pork and thus no 'baby back' ribs - this is their signature dish. I had lamp chops - it was just average. They provide free flow of soft drinks unlike Tony Roma's restaurant in Singapore. Many Singapore restaurants do not provide free flow of soft drinks.

KL new Hotel

Kuala Lumpur - Checked into KL newest hotel in Mid Valley - The Gardens Hotel & Residences. Everything of this hotel 'smells' new - you really have a good feeling.....until, their free internet access does not work. I tried many times using all the software and called their IT managers with the same answer - "we do not know what is the problem". I told them that their DHCP server is having problem and not giving me an IP address or there is a cabling problem. When Donny came to my room and tested with his notebook same problem. The hotel changed to another room and the problem was fixed. Despite having this internet access problem, the hotel staff was very courteous and came up to my room many times to try to fix the problem.

Dinner was at Brother Kuan restaurant in Bandar Puteri Puchong, Puchong - this restaurant came highly recommended. We tried almost everything there is no the menu. Fishball soup (different from Singapore, not soft but with meat within); Roast Duck (this was really delicious served in a tray of herbal gravy), Roast Pork, BBQ Pork, etc...
