KL Bird Park

Assalammualaikum...

Tetiba aktif pula berblogging, harini nak share my 1st time experience visiting KL Bird Park. Actually dari kecik arwah maklong selalu bw jln2 area lake garden, national monument, national mosque ni semua tapi tak pernah masuk taman burung n taman2 lain di sekitar yg berbayar heee.

Now dh ada anak rasa tertarik nak pergi utk dekatkan anak pd nature kononnya. To those yg tak familiar with its location, just look for planetarium negara or memorial Tun Razak. To me these two are the nearest place to the park, i even parked my car at the memorial. We talk later about it.

The park!  Really hugeee and infact world largest!  Proud to be Malaysian haha. Most area covered by a gigantic net making the area as the largest bird nest on earth, perhaps hehe.

For us Malaysian, we need to pay RM 25 for adult and RM 15 for kids. While for foreigner, they need to pay RM 48 for adult...sorry folks! Its open daily from 9 am till 6 pm.

It has several showcases, but we were only managed to catch parrot show at the amphitheater at 1230 noon. Only twice per day.

For birds lover, u gusy will surely enjoy it. For me...i enjoyed my experience, so many types of birds which most of them I've never seen.

The area is large enough to make u tired and thus pls bring along mineral water and u kids stroller! Which we did not.

Gift shop pun ada, price is quite ok and so many cutie birdie merchandises. There's also a restaurant named hornbill restaurant and cafe which also covered under the net so that u can still watch the birds fly freely within that net. The foods were tasty but a bit pricey to my pocket...

Last we visited the memorial as well since our car was there. Very beautiful building, architecally. Used to be official resident of the late Tun Razak while he was in service as prime minister. Strategic place to visit after the park bcoz it is fully air conditioned. Nice place to catch ur breath after hours of walking.

So next time u r free, pls visit the place.

Mohd Chan - chinese muslim restaurant

Assalammualaikum..

Nihau? Haha tetiba mood cakap mandarin kan. Btw, sempena Gong Xi Fa Cai ni aku balek kampung. Tg Krg ni dekat je dgn Kuala Selangor and KS plak mmg famously known for its seafood restaurants.

Cuma masalahnya mostly operated by non muslim and ada kepala rimau so aku tak berani nak try. Sebab tu tiap kali org luar tanya aku pasal seefood di KS, aku tak bg komen sebab had never try pun.

Kalini kira bertuah sebab dh ada buka sebuah restoran cina muslim, Mohd Chan nama dia...comel kan?  Mcm Jacky Chan masuk islam je bunyinya.

Restoran ni baru je buka kat new shop lot building yg located behind McD tu. Easy to spot bcoz dari jln besar tu dh clear nampak signboardnya. Based on carian foursquare, ada byk dh branch. KS ni kira the newest.

Ok. Jom review pasal restoran ni plak ek. We were warmly greeted by bro Mohd Chan himself, friendly and polite. Parking pun considered easy at night bcoz neighboring stores are all closed. Single storey je so quite pack, mujur dtg awal. Better call and make reservation so that u dun have to wait quite long to get ur food ready.

About the food. We ordered food that we seldomly eat only, the menu variety is good but mostly similar to any other malay restaurant.

Roasted duck - nice taste but slightly overcooked and hence dried.

Chili Crab - most wanted menu, i've been craving for it since ages! Dunno where to find it..yg sure halal. Tq Mohd Chan..finally i found it. Sedapppp. Tu je nk cakap. Ketam fresh n byk isi.

Four season - ni ala2 platter la. Inside the plate ada 4 dishes yg hot, cold, and other 2 tu x sure what season hehe. Sedap baby octopus dgn sesame sos. Udang with mayonnaise. Scramble egg with mushrooms and 1 more dish yg i did not try.

That's it! Sayang dim sum habes so tak dapat cuba.

Overall, puas hati and maybe will come again in future.

Selamat mencuba!
