28 April 2010, Wednesday, SG -> KL

Haven't been out of the country since last November. It felt good taking the passport out again for a ride today :)

We drove from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in the middle of the afternoon. It was a good and uneventful drive. But when we got into the city, we went around a few circles before we found the driveway to the hotel. Thank you the lender of the GPS, otherwise we'd be super lost!

Good thing we are staying smack opposite the shopping mall called Pavilion. Good air-conditioning :P

Dinner was at a recommended place, El Cerado for their suckling piglet. We had a half piglet for 2, it was served with 4 slices of potato dumpling, a savoury gravy & some green leaves.

The piglet had was cut in a special way, the pretty lady showed us how. Take a plate, hit the wooden cutting board 3 times and slice the piggy, across the neck, chest and behind. Then wish for love or money and break that plate in a wooden bucket. Smash!

I personally feel that the food was good, but it was all more hype and novelty than the quality of the food. I prefer the porchetta at San Francisco's Farmers' Market. Oh well, it's at Cangkat Bukit Bintang, so try it out and let me know what you think of it? :)

Kumxia Fata for driving all the way and for being able to attend the conference at the nice hotel...
