United Buddy Bears

Hello! The United Buddy Bears came to Kuala Lumpur and is now standing tall in front of Pavillion Mall. If you happen to be in Kuala Lumpur from now till 15th February 2012, it's a good chance to visit this free-of-charge exhibition.

These United Buddy Bears originates from Berlin,Germany in Year 2001 and has been travelling around the globe to HongKong, Austria, Japan, Turkey, Seoul, Sydney, and the list goes on to spread the message of peace, cross culture love and unity. Here are some pictures which we took on our visit last Sunday:-






This picture of Netherlands United Buddy Bear is specially dedicated to Niels and Yi Lin whom are both in Netherlands. Miss you both much when we saw this bear and hope we will come to see it together when you both are in Kuala Lumpur next month!

After we took pictures of the Bears, we walked over to Lot 10 to have our late breakfast. In the basement level of Lot 10, the place was transformed into a food paradise last year attacting many locals and tourists to enjoy the local cuisines there. Hubby & i love the hawker food there and we always ordered the same dish. Hubby ordered his beef noodles and i ordered the "teng chye" porridge. "Teng chye jok" literal meaning is a porridge stall in Cantonese. However when one mentioned "teng chye jok", it would mean porridge that comes with  abit of everything from dried cuttle fish, peanuts, fresh seaweed which immediately fragrance up the fine and plain  white porridge. I leave it to the pictures below to do the rest of the description:-




I also ordered a plate of fried "yue teow" and a bowl of fried pork intestines to go with the porridge. I am not a fan of animal innards but hubby is. I decided to spoil him that morning and i "ka liu" (ordered the extra fried pork intestines) for him. However, i was told that the fried intestines were hard and too chewy, so hubby only finished half of it. This bowl of porridge cost RM15. Quite expensive for porridge standard but every spoonful is full of flavour if u like dried cuttlefish and peanuts and the portion is huge. Good to be shared among 3-4 persons so one can sample other local dishes here.

A few hours later, we stopped for late lunch at a Japanese restaurant and we stuffed ourselves silly again.

 Hubby ordered the seafood set with a bed of sushi rice and i chose the sushi platter with seafood tempura.
 After our meals, we immediately felt heavier and lazier and decided to head home for a nap.

  1. As usual, good food everywhere. Wink. I went to the Lot 10 food court a few times and I liked the food a lot. Only thing that is the place is a bit dark and noisy for my liking. But I would go there for the food.

    The Dutch bear is so cute, but he looks kind of icy cold!

    Yummy sushi!!

  2. The place was very crowded as well. We arrived at 11am and had to share a table with strangers (a family of three)....

    The Dutch bear is the fairest of them all. It looks like he's from Iceland or North Pole instead of Holland. ;-p
