Tourist at The Gardens

 
Malls are sprouting like mushrooms around town recently! First Pavilion, then The Gardens, later Sunway Pyramid’s extension. Bringing in more exclusive branded merchandises to drive shopaholics nuts! Malaysians are getting richer… or should i say poorer by the minute with all these shops around.

Here’s some pics of The Gardens i managed to take while i pretended to be a tourist to avoid stares. Just a few of my favs coz everyone else had already posted pics of each nook and corner of the mall. *look out for the last few ones

Couches in the middle of the corridor for my aching feet

Notice that the are projectors embeded in the brown wall above.
 

The Gardens is only 80%-90% occupied. Some shops like Italianis have not start operation yet. Some ‘bridges’ (i don’t know what to call it) have yet to be finished.

Bridge yet to be completed.
 

There are a whole lot of brands available. I didn’t take pics of every exclusive brand there coz i’m not the friggin’ directory. So if you want, go there and have a look at their interactive touch screen directory.
 

guess
Ooohhh…. Guess

Lewre for heels
 

I came to the corner of the mall and couldn’t believe that everyone else missed to post these nice shots.
 

levels
Corner of the mall…wait wait theres more…

Behold! The magnificent purple…errr… hole?? it looks nicer live
 

I actually prefer The Gardens to Pavilion coz it has a more comfortable and traditional feel while Pavilion is more chic and posh. The Gardens features design that adopts wood and bamboo as part of the interior. I adore the escalators.

Creative or Delusional?

 
Referring to BlurryHunniee‘s post on ‘She Loves Me‘, i would like to clarify something.
 

“I am not delusional! I was merely doing you a favor since you are too lazy *like always to start blogging but had constantly mentioned to my face that you should. I would not have ‘cabul’ the virginity of your blog if you had stop procrastinating and stop complaining *which is of course your nature. Plus i felt sorry for your blog and was afraid that she might die miserably a virgin *wakaka!

 

******

Some crap conversation i had with KidCheng a while ago on … again…being delusional… *which i am not lar

Me: I took alot of those career test recently. All of the results says i should be in the artistic/creative field like advertising, journalism, marketing, etc… man, i really took the wrong course to study during college…
KidCheng: Yea yea.
Me: Ya wat. Those job need people to be creative wat… like me hehehe.
KidCheng: Yeah. Those people are creative… but you are… delusional.
Me: -_-”

Here’s how you play:

A. Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun. You can do a screen capture by going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key). Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V).If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.

B. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.

C. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.

D. Add your name to this list of Free Viewers with a link pointing directly to your Desktop Free View post to promote it to succeeding participants.

I’m tagging the following friends:

I’ve been calling and sms-ing friends, friends of friends and friends of my friends’ sisters and mine to help vote but my total vote look so damn pathetic compared with other insane contestants.

A Quick One At Restaurant Niji Sushi

 
Welcome to the establishment with the most ‘efficient’ staffs of the year.

Sudden craving for Japanese food brought us here, a newly opened outlet in Bandar Manjalara. It’s actually the second outlet in Manjalara area.

Welcome to the land of the hunted
 

Food was just so-so. The presentation left much to be desired.
 

beef
Beef whatchamacallit??
 

If there’s any place where staffs could be too over ‘efficient’, it’s gotta be here. All the time i was sitting there, i felt like i was watched. Why? Well, i had 2 sips of hot green tea and all of a sudden the waitress was next to me re-filling my still full cup. I had another 2 sips and there she was again re-filling for me… and again and again… geez…

After the food arrived, i tried to take some photos with my Lumix but i felt like the staffs were hawk-ing me. So i just took some quick pathetic shots. Noticed that the photos are so blur and the angle taken are kinda so unprofessional?

While we were shoving the last spoon of rice into our mouth, the waitress was already on stand-by mode to clear our table. Uhm… ok. Let her take the dishes away…

Then when we each picked our temaki roll, she took away our plates. We were left holding the rolls with no plates on the table. I was dumbstrucked by her idiocy. *made us feel so stupid. Tsk tsk…
 

temaki
Salmon skin and soft shell crab hand roll temaki
 

Anyway, I didn’t bother to memorize the name of the beef + rice tepanyaki dish coz i was so stumped by the ‘efficiency’ of the staffs there. Let’s just call it ‘beef whatchamacallit’. Plus i thought i could grab the receipt on the way out coz it might have the name on it but well, the highly ‘efficient’ staff pulled away the tab before i manage to take it. Uhm… i didn’t bother to ask for it from him again.

Approximately:-
Beef Whatchamacallit – RM20.00
Salmon Skin Temaki – RM4.00
Soft Shell Crab Temaki – RM4.00
2 green tea – RM3.50
