Now that I have resumed working, I cherish the Public Holidays that Malaysian enjoy 💖 If you are thinking where to go for a short trip, do consider Genting Highlands. From Kuala Lumpur, it only takes around 45 to 60 minutes by car 🚙.
One of the benefit of being a Genting member is that we get free room 😍 at First World Hotel every once in a while. The layout of the room is pretty much the same.
Ten minutes before you reach the peak of Genting Highlands, you can stop by Genting Premium Outlet (GPO). I know of brands and shopping lovers who would drive all the way up just to shop 🛍at GPO.
Food was quite limited the last time I went to GPO. I went to Wendy's and it was so crowded. The food & service was crappy enough 😠for me to make a formal complaint to them. My advice is to try out other eateries 🍙especially during peak period.
There are times when we are fortunate to get a bigger room with better mountain view🌄.
Toilet and bathroom are very basic but I think its fine for a short trip. Just bring your toiletries if you are particular. Towels are provided.
Sky Avenue is a shopping mall that is conveniently linked to First World Hotel. They have most of the brands and restaurants available in KL. When I went last time, Snoopy and the gang came for a visit 😝
Remember to check out Sky Symphony as well. I was really impressed 😊with the show.
Spoiler Alert! Play the video only if you want have a sneak peak on the Sky Symphony show.
Last but not least, you will need to try out Burger & Lobster at least once in your lifetime. 😋 But do be prepared for the long queue, especially during weekends or public holidays. It could easily take approximately half an hour or more to reach your turn.
The first time I went, I tried out The Original (RM146) wild live lobster. It was good but the portion was a bit small. I love the sauce but it didn't seem to jive well with the lobster so I dipped it with fries instead.
We also tried out their beef burgers but it was so-so. Nothing to shout about. 😐
By now you would probably wonder why I even recommend you this place. This 👆, kawan, is the gem. Initially we felt that it would be a waste to order Chilli Lobster (RM165) as we won't be able to savour the original taste of the lobster meat. But we saw many people ordering this and decided to try out the second time we visit.
We instantly fall in love with the taste of Chilli Lobster. The portion is huge and could be shared by two person. But I've seen big size guys ordering one Chilli Lobster each thou. Imagine dipping the bread into the sauce.... 😏Mmmm..... I'm feeling hungry 😋at this hour. I have not tried the lobster rolls but from what I observed, the portion looked a tad small so I wasn't keen to try it.
You can check out the menu here or 👆. I still think Chilli Lobster is the best and apparently its only available in Malaysia. I saw quite a number of people ordering Time Keeper as well.
If you are going in a big group, probably can consider Tower of London (RM830) 😆.
That's all for now. If you have tried out other food at Burger & Lobster, do share your review as well!
