#summervacay #thingstodo #staycation #travel #hotelreview #pudu Hotel Palette offers a no-frills experience tailored for solo travelers seeking simplicity with thoughtful touches. Situated across from a Chinese school and an aging flat, the location reflects an authentic slice of local life. The hotel provides limited but convenient free parking in a small corner lot—great for those arriving by car. My room, though without windows, was clean and surprisingly spacious for a solo guest. While soundproofing leaves much to be desired, the overall ambiance was calm enough for rest. A particularly eco-conscious detail: instead of bottled water, the hotel offers a water dispenser—an appreciated effort in reducing plastic waste. It’s small gestures like this that add a layer of quiet responsibility to an otherwise minimalistic stay. If you’re looking for a modest, functional place to rest without fancy trimmings, Hotel Palette does the job with humble charm.

#summervacay #thingstodo #myitinerary #travel #staycation #malaysiafood #pork 🧾 Verdict: Long Jiang Pork doesn’t chase trends—it honors tradition. If you’re into nose-to-tail dining with a side of old-school ambiance, this place is worth every ringgit. What sets this humble eatery apart isn’t just its unapologetically pork-centric menu, but the respect it gives to the whole animal. From liver to intestine, tender pork leg to smoky sausage, each item carries its own story and texture, braided together by the restaurant’s signature braised sauce—dark, sticky, and layered with depth. Instead of rice, I went with porridge—a deliberate choice. The smooth, neutral base soaked up the sauce from the pork leg stew like a well-mannered companion, letting the richness shine without competing. For RM20, the portion felt generous, soulful even. I added a RM4.50 calamansi drink to cut through the richness—a smart move, as its citrusy sharpness balanced the heaviness with refreshing clarity. The setting added to the experience: old flats with peeling paint shoulder-to-shoulder with glossy towers. It’s a place where memories linger in the cracks of the concrete, and meals feel like continuations of heritage rather than just transactions.

#summervacay #kl #kuala_lumpur #travel #staycation #thingstodo #myitinerary Tucked between the steel and glass ambitions of Kuala Lumpur’s skyline lies a pocket of time the city forgot—but the heart remembers. A walk through the old town area feels like slipping between the pages of a living memory, where the past hasn’t been erased, only gently folded into the present. Here, the contrast is striking. Towering high-rises loom in the background, their mirrored windows reflecting a world of closed doors and private lives. But just behind them, the old flats breathe a different rhythm. On the ground floor, elders gather on plastic stools and faded benches, their conversations flowing like kopi from chipped porcelain cups. They speak not of stock prices or traffic jams, but of childhoods, lost loves, and the price of roti in 1975. It’s a place where stories are not streamed but spoken, where community isn’t curated—it simply exists. The buildings may be weathered, but the spirit is warm. And in that warmth, you realize: progress may rise vertically, but connection lives horizontally.
