Genting Part II

Harlow!!! i’m back with more pics on the Adverlets Genting trip!

After the fantastic Dreamz show, we were escorted like VIPs to watch Labour Day fireworks! We could walk through barricades that blocked out the public, we could stand right in front of the fireworks area that the crowd couldn’t enter. It was super windy as soon as we stepped out of the hotel; so so cold!!! See how Boon Ken is wrapping himself!

We camwhore like crazy while waiting for fireworks to start at midnight. At the same time, the crowd was looking at us like some intermission clowns >.<

Argh! So exciting it shows all over our faces! I wonder if Dear is posing or candid???

GentingGetaway_09_197

Damn posers man all these guys… =.=

After fireworks, we were so well taken care of, that each of us were given RM25 cash voucher to have hot drink and pastry for supper!

The Bakery was sooooOOO crowded with people after fireworks, but we had special treatment!

This is how you make a glass of hot chocolate drink in Genting The Bakery. You get a glass of hot creamy fresh milk and several sticks of chocolate.

GentingGetaway_09_212

Put those sticks of choc into the hot milk and stir…

GentingGetaway_09_213

And stir somemore…

Better taste if stirred by a cutie…

GentingGetaway_09_215

And tasted by another cutie… ^^

After supper, it was 2am, but i still felt super energetic despite waking up at 6am and working the whole day. I wanted to go back to the room to bathe, then go back out to play indoor theme park. Aiyor the number of  people and activities going on, night time is almost no difference from day time!

But once we got to the room…

After a refreshing shower (the last i showered was 6am), after changing into comfortable t-shirt and pants (been wearing formal clothes and heels since morning), i felt so SO comfortable…that i refused to go anywhere except to crawl under blanket and sleep. hehehe…

The next morning, Dear and I went to find our own breakfast. Had some not nice yet expensive dim sum (rm6 per basket) at the Market Place (i think that’s what it was called), then only Dear and I realized that we actually had buffet breakfast that comes together with our free room. OMG…i could have some delicious hot bread with sausage and omelette… T.T

Not only we had free breakfast, we had these too…

That’s Yvonne, Derek and David in their costumes. So sad…Dear and I found them just 10 mins too late. They didn’t want to take us in already bcos those 3 already had their briefings, they’ll start their flying soon. Oh man…wasted yet another ticket! Worth RM50 per person you know!

We couldn’t wait for the next round because we had to rush off for lunch then take the bus back to KL ady.. T.T

So watching those 3 toss and turn and struggle in the air tunnel, we checked out of our rooms! You gotta know, it was really REALLY crowded in the hotel…

GentingGetaway_09_241

I thought it would take damn long to check out, but…

GentingGetaway_09_253

Makan time! It was Genting Palace Restaurant, if i remembered correctly

GentingGetaway_09_257

Our starter

GentingGetaway_09_259

I like this dish best. The Genting staff said that they initially thought of serving shark’s fin soup to us, but they were aware that youngsters nowadays are very environmental-conscious, and into animal protection. So they served sweet corn and crab meat soup instead. It tastes so good in my mouth after knowing that Genting staffs are aware of the need of protecting animals and to slowly get rid of shark’s fin soup practice

GentingGetaway_09_263

Roast chicken…i like!

GentingGetaway_09_271

Steam fish, patin i think

GentingGetaway_09_272

Stew broccoli and mushroom

GentingGetaway_09_274

Fried rice with olive oil (this is a dish that requires acquire taste. After a few bites only i learnt to enjoy it)

GentingGetaway_09_275

Mango lolo dessert

The restaurant got very nice setting!

GentingGetaway_09_277 GentingGetaway_09_276

After lunch, we were escorted to the hotel front entrance, where our bus drives all the way up to pick us (instead of picking us from cable car station)

GentingGetaway_09_284 GentingGetaway_09_290

Go home lor…wasted all those free tickets lor… =(

But thank you Genting Group and Adverlets for inviting me for this trip. Although I had been to Genting several times already, this was definitely an eye opener. I wasn’t aware that the typical mentality of young people is that Genting is a place for old people only. I had always thought of Genting as a happening place, a Malaysian version of  mini Las Vegas, a highland resort that never sleeps >.<

Ok, next up, I’ll post about this:

Bellygood_Makan_02

My first foodie blogger event!
