Fried Carrot Cake @ Permas Jaya Sunday Night Market

The Fried Carrot Cake hawker stall is located at the Sunday Permas Jaya Night Market (N1.49493 E103.81524), Jalan Permas 10/10 of Taman Permas Jaya. There are 3 Fried Carrot Cake stalls at the night market and this stall is one of it at the middle of the 300 meter long Sunday night market.

The Fried Carrot Cake hawker stall - RM3.50 (small), RM4.00 (big)

The stall is manage and own by a young couple, the guy (Mr Lee) is the one who fried the carrot cake. If you are not sure which stall is correct, just take note that...there'll be a Proton Wira parked behind the stall. Picture below :-

The stall owner - Mr Lee

Maybe because of the night market is fall on Sunday, so prepare for the big crowd along the street. And also a Long waiting queue on the stall...

The Fried Carrot Cake which are ready to pick-up! Look at the queue...

I will suggest you place your order then have a walk at the night market, after finish shopping then pick-up from the stall. Don't waste your time waiting at the stall, because it might take more than 30 minutes for your Fried Carrot Cake.

The Flavorful Fried Carrot Cake was nice and above average if compare with others, it was not salty. But I believe it can be better if it's fry with bean sprout. (Understand some customer doesn't like bean sprout)
I will visit this stall again and I prefer to have a Extra Big pack next time, because it wasn't fill up my stomach even I ordered the Big pack. :)

*  If you like to try it, be there early. I heard the Fried Carrot Cake finish before 8.30pm.

Ho Ho Steamboat Restaurant at Taman Molek, Johor Bahru

Ho Ho Steamboat Restaurant (N1.52088 E103.78447) is located along Jalan Molek 3/10, Taman Molek - Johor Bahru, which is nearby the Ponderosa Golf Club of Johor Bahru.

Ho Ho Steamboat Restaurant

We love to take steamboat during the raining night, at least it will not be that Hot and also will warm up the cooling night. The area is spacious enough and you can even choose to dine at the alfresco area (if it's not raining). This restaurant's charges is different from others (eat as you can), they charge per person and serve you all the dishes at once on the table. (MYR14.00 per person)

We like the services of this restaurant. Less than 10 minutes, our table was full of dishes...

And they are Famous with their homemade fish noodles, fish cake and fish balls, beside that...there are also include other seafood like prawns in the package.

Homemade fish balls

Fish and prawns


Noodles and eggs as usual...

Please forget their homemade chili sauce...

Overall, the steamboat dinner was OK, and the soup was normal chicken soup and the fish was fresh! The restaurant is crowded during weekend and I believe it's because of the reasonable price. We did ordered the beef and it was serve in slices (MYR10.00 per plate), I like it very much!

The Damage : MYR14.00 per person.

Well, we will visit again on the coming raining night for dinner. :)

The Sleepless City - Kuala Lumpur

I was standing at the cross junction of Jalan Imbi & Jalan Sultan Ismail, Kuala Lumpur (N3.14366 E101.71214) on one of the Saturday night. And I can't help myself but just keep on snapping the surrounding...actually I was walking towards the Capitol Hotel where we stayed.
Anyway, I felt this was a nice place for night street photography...

Berjaya Times Square across the road and the Big Square LED display

The road traffic was still very busy even it's almost midnight....

Heavy congestion at Jalan Sultan Ismail...

There were many Giant signage at this junction which lighted up the whole area...and most of the shops here are open 24 hours. That mean's you can grab any foods even after midnight...

The Mc Donald's Fast Food Restaurant is open for 24hours

Personally like the lighting of the Bukit Bintang LRT Station which located in front of me...

Bukit Bintang LRT Station

There were many night activities around this corner...

The Gold & the Silver

One of the 'Art' of the junction during weekend was the Gold & the Silver. These 2 men were dressed in Gold & Silver even included their face. You can take photo with them and Please donate RM2.00 into the box in front of them, take note the colour and please don't put into the Wrong box! :)
I was standing beside them for more than 30 minutes, and guess what?! They REALLY don't Move at all!! Wow!

The Toys seller

My daughter wanted one of the rabbit, but I refused...

The group of the youngsters performing the Street Dance next to toy seller...and they attracted many peoples who walking passed...

The Starbucks at BB Plaza still full of peoples even after midnight

When I walked towards the Capitol Hotel, along the way...Jalan Bukit Bintang...

The road (Jln Bukit Bintang) Still very Alive after midnight, the Sleepless City

The junction between Changkat Bukit Bintang & Jln Bukit Bintang

There was a Cafe on the rooftop of the building on the left, and you can see the KL Tower at the background. Behind the shops, it is the Famous Food Stalls - Jalan Alor of Kuala Lumpur.

The KL Tower

and passed through Jalan Bulan...Surprised! Crowded and happening!

Wondering all the cars parked at the 'Toll Away' area?!

Beside coffee, tea and foods, there was even a Live Band playing at the corner!

And you can also have a Street Massage just opposite the restaurants! The shops & restaurants around this area mostly open 24hours.

Capitol Hotel at The Heart of Kuala Lumpur

Capitol Hotel (N3.14481 E101.70988) is located at Jalan Bulan of Jalan Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur. And it's surrounded by Sungai Wang Plaza, BB Plaza and Lowyat Plaza in the Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur. The reason we selected this hotel was because of the prime location!

I booked the hotel through HolidayCity.com with the better rates, because when I made a call for the hotel reservation, they said it's Full.
Surprisingly, during we checked-in...we were upgraded to Super Deluxe Room at the same rates!

The Super Deluxe Room of Capitol Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

The Super Deluxe room is located at the corner of the building, and my daughter like it very much because she can had a better view of the surrounding!
The room was Clean & Spacious enough for small family like us.

The bathroom was spacious too! It came with a shower area & bathtub. You can view from the photos attached...


The Bathtub

Nice decorated shower area

We took the room without breakfast, because there are Many restaurants at this area and we can have more choices! We had our dinner at the restaurant situated just next to the Hotel. So far the foods were average and prices were reasonable.

The Beef Noodle at the restaurant beside Capitol Hotel

Roasted Pork from the same restaurant

The beef noodle was ok but the roasted pork was not Crunchy.

The Capitol Hotel was fine (except the ventilation at the corridor) and we may want to visit it again next time!
Rated : 3.5/5

We only put a night here because I was invited to the Blogger Party at Neo Tamarind Restaurant.
