… last night after dinner. Was there with my housemate ET, Cheok Yeen and my gf Sarah… we had dinner at the Restoran Kong Sai in Paramount Garden, PJ since it was still raining around 7.45pm…
Too bad none of us brought any camera, mine’s (or rather my sister’s) at my KL residence, ET and Sarah forgot to bring theirs… but we had the usual great stuff at Kong Sai for dinner - chicken, bean sprouts, the fatty pork with yam dish, and topped it off with the pepper pork belly soup
Yum!
Unfortunately, there’s not much Chinese New Year mood around Petaling Street (aka China Town)… sad ler, not much CNY decorations and the likes… just the typical counterfeit products sellers… thought it would be more colourful and happening since CNY is drawing near (next Wed!)…
I ended up buying 2 t-shirts and was lazy to go around to the other side and queue up to buy the Kiew Brothers’ dried meat…
But it was a fun evening out with the entire group - and Sarah enjoyed the shopping fun with lotsa bargaining…
Just before 11pm, we ended up in A&W outlet in Subang Jaya for some root beers before going back to Nilai again… it was a fun-filled 6 hours out of the boring town of Nilai… or at least that’s what ET said, just before reaching home…
I’m still a tad dissapointed at the lack of atmosphere in Petaling Street just a week before CNY

..And the reason is that “the feng shui” has been disturbed by the recent modernisation and renovation done on PS. I had the same observation and asked the old resident tau fu seller inside the market and that was what he told me. Another point he mentioned is that the people have ‘dispersed’ during the renovation to seek greener pastures elsewhere.
