Review: Imperial Hotel Kuching

I recently stayed at Imperial Hotel Kuching. It is a 4 star hotel attached to a shopping mall and a serviced apartment.


There is a water feature greeting me when I first arrived at the hotel.


Check-in was fast and easy.


This is my room. Deluxe room at RM 199 with breakfast.


Tea making facilities and a mini bar below the counter.


Iron, iron board and security box.


Bath tub


and shower.

Facilities in the hotels include: 

Business centre (Open until 7pm)


Swimming pool


and a gym 
(Forgot to take a picture. Above picture from Imperial hotel's website.)



The hotel is connected to Boulevard shopping mall (as you can see behind this grand chandelier).


Passage to the mall 

Spent around 1 hour to walk around the mall. Very quiet and nothing caught my attention except the very cheap towel promotion from Boulevard Hypermarket. Bought 4 towels with RM 24.


The next morning, I took my breakfast at Imperial Garden Restaurant (hotel restaurant).


Nasi Lemak Pandan


Nasi Arab


Porridge Station


Egg Station (sunny side and omelette)


Local delight (Kurma chicken, mix vege & fried rice)


Potato wedges


Sausage, scrambled egg and baked beans


Bread butter pudding and vanilla sauce


Bread and pastry station


Noodle station with Sarawak Laksa

.

Classic Cereal bar (corn flakes, honey star and coco crunch)
and drinks (fresh milk, soy milk, mango juice and orange juice)


Coffee and tea from drinks machine (they are refilling the contents)


Salad bar (and fruits not in the picture)


They also have yogurt and muesli.


I always like toast a croissant if they have this kind of toaster.



I took a light breakfast for that day.

Verdict: 

Generally the hotel serve its function. I like the bathtub. The breakfast is standard. The shopping mall is not worth the visit. Would go out to look for dinner the next time.

Round round rating: 3.5 out of 5

Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid

Hi! I would like to share our experience at Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid. Special thanks to my mom for sponsoring this meal. Din Tai Fung is actually a Taiwanese restaurant. They are famous of their Xiao Long Bao (Small steamed bun with meat fillings and soup). I have also heard that their fried rice is a must try. We have ordered two types of Xiao Long Bao, one set is original flavour, another set is the crab flavour. They have some soy sauce and chili oil as condiments The Xiao Long Bao has to be eaten with ginger and vinegar. Here comes with our Xiao Long Bao. Each of the bao is filled with minced meat and some very steamy soup. You have to really be careful of not scalding yourself. To savour them safely, you will have to make a small bite on the skin and allow the soup to flow out onto your spoon. Wait until the soup cools down a little bit before eating it. The crab flavoured Xiao Long Bao has a little twist of crab roe flavour in it. Not...

Review: Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe

Hi! Today I would like to share my dining experience in Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe. It was located at SS15 Courtyard, next to SS15 LRT station. The spotlight here is on their Korean style shave ice, Bingsu. However, they do serve hot food here. This is the bimbab I orderd. Somewhere around RM 15+. They call themselves "Best Bingsu in Town". I do agree with them. So far in the shave ice category, their texture and mouthfeel is the best among those I tried. Basically they are using a milk based bingsu, and they add different toppings on top. Their bingsu is very soft, smooth, and literary melts in your mouth.  Injeolmi Red Bean - Injeolmi means rice cake (the two white colour bits on top of this bingsu). The bingsu is covered with roasted soy bean flavour with a hint of red bean paste on top. (RM 24++) Blueberry snow ice - Covered with blueberries, blueberry syrup and chunks of cheesecake, this bingsu is more flavourful compared to the Injeolmi Red ...

Touch from strangers

When I was pregnant, there will be somebody that touches my baby bump without asking me consent. After my baby was born, seeing my baby being touched by strangers also doesn't feel good to me. Not only because of the germs lurking on their finger tips, I also felt disrespect as the person is invading our personal space and boundaries. Unwanted touching is always inappropriate, and it is a difficult and awkward to reject touch from a stranger. Most of the time it happened so fast that the person was gone before I could react. I know this word might sound heavy, but sometime I do felt "harassed". Of course, I can do my part to stop people to touch my baby. Like telling off strangers to stay away, putting up "NO touching" signs, and putting up mosquito net to create a barrier. Doing these is effective, but awkward as well. It will be great that if everyone could educate themselves about respecting people's space and boundaries, especially for baby b...
