Bandung - Day 2

Our day continue with shopping again....

We wake up as early as 6am in order to get ready to serang

the factory outlet again.

Rumah Mode...here we are..

We were there 10mins before the door open. There were also

a few other groups who have reached there much earlier than

us. The place will get very very crowded if you come a bit late.

Rumah Mode is one of the famous factory outlet in Bandung.

It's a huge bungalow converted to a factory outlet and they have

cafe selling all kinds of local food. So for those who have finished

their shopping, they can sit in the cafe while waiting for the others.

I didn't spend so much here coz the price is slightly higher than

other factory outlets which I can get something similar or nicer.

Ada la beli sikit2... We were there for almost half a day..

After shopping, we packed the snacks from the cafe as we

didn't want to waste time.

Then terus proceed to the next outlets : Secret, Heritage,

Cascade & Summit which is located along Jalan Dago.

I managed to find a lot of things that I wanted from Secret.

Dapatla a few pairs of jeans and some casual and office blouses.

Puas hati!! Cascade has a lot of nice dresses for girls so I grab

a few nice one for my two little girls.

So the whole day is really a good therapy for us...

The day ended up with a nice dinner again at the Sundanese

Restaurant called Karamba. We ordered a set menu again

and the food is excellent even it looks very simple. The aroma

from the rice which enhance the taste really make us wanted to

go for 2nd helping tapi malangnya nasi dah habis... We've been

told that they added some herbs and spices when cooking the

rice. That's why la sedap banget... Before we left place, the

waiter promoted their cookies which is one of their speciality.

It taste like "Kuih Bangkit" .. and it melts in your mouth.

So each of us bought 2 packs. ..a good sale for them !!!

Before going back to the hotel, Pak Zul drove us through

Paris Van Java to see how does the place looks like.

It's a huge shopping mall with a lots of cafe (looks like the

cafes at BintangWalk in KL).

We reached our hotel at 10pm and again we compared

each others shopping and terus pack in the luggage so that

we can agak2 how much more space we have for the final day

after shopping at Rumah Mode..very nice landscape..

Tahu Gejrot

Surabi (glutinous rice with choc filling and

sprinkle of cheese)

Sausage at Rumah Sosis next to The Secret..

Damn good!!!

They also sell frozen sausage for you to bring home

Heritage ( mid market brand )

Cascade ( up market brand )

Liwet Komplit Set... the rice taste

damn bloody good!!!

Some of the items on menu card

Cookies (taste like Kuih Bangkit)... recommended!!

Bandung - Day 1

I've been busy like a bee since I came back from my retail
therapy trip in Bandung. Cant even find time to write about
this exciting trip.. I left all the barang2 in the guest room and

finally, yesterday I managed to find time to keep all the stuff

and snap some pictures to share with everyone.

The "Rombongan Cik Kiah" arrived Bandung on Saturday,

25July at 10.30am local time. There are 6 of us in this trip.

We hired a van from the local agent and it costs us 400000 rupiah

(approx RM140) per day incl driver, petrol & parking. After c/in,

we didn't want to waste our time.. so terus ambush the Factory

Outlets in Jalan Dago. I was so excited until terlupa to take picture

but I could still remember the name - Grande, Blossom, DSA &

Happenings/Rich & Famous. These are the FOs we attacked on

the first day. The best part is baru first day shopping, our luggage

was almost half full. Everything looks very nice and cheap if

to compare with the original price. We finished our shopping

almost around 8.30pm until everyone were too tired sampai

dah tak ada energy nak jalan. Macam mana tak ada energy...

we had heavy breakfast just because nak skip lunch so that we

can have more time to do shopping.. Itu dia Cik Timah ...

when comes to shopping, makan pun boleh tolak tepi dulu..

We had dinner at Pak Chi Met Ikan Bakar in Sukajadi. Very nice

and cosy restaurant. All of us ordered the Ikan Bakar Gurami set

(Ikan Talapia). Since we have been starving ourselves for the

whole day, so habis the whole set sapu licin... The food was

exceptionally good especially the Ayam Penyet.

So the first day of our retail therapy session ended with this

lovely dinner and sampai hotel all of us sibuk checking each

others shopping.

What a relief and kind of wonderful feeling of having to do shopping for the whole day.. hahaha...

To all ladies out there I bet you guys have the same feeling when comes to shopping !!

some of Farhana's clothes..

Farisa is so happy to get her HM shirt..

love the colour and design...

sandals from Blossom

Ikan Gurame Bakar set

Ayam Penyet

Rombongan Cik Kiah in Pak Chi Met Rest

opppsss...I did it again

yeahh... i did it again... Unintentionally...

Yesterday morning we went out to send my MIL to see her

eye specialist for follow up check up in KL. So while waiting

for her, we decided to hang out in Pavillion. Since we were

there very early, some of the kedai are still close so we

head to the foodcourt and have breakfast.

Around 11am, hubby went to pick his mother and left me with

my 2 little girls in the mall. So I pun started my 'cuci mata'

activities.. As we walked passed the so called exclusive boutique,

I noticed most of them are having sale.. DKNY, Marc Jacob,

Aigner, Juicy... pasal nak tau how cheap is the sale, so I

went in to kepoh. They are having 30 -50% sale...hhmm..

not bad..some items are quite reasonable after the 50%,

and some are still very mahal...

Then we walked further up and ternampak Coach is having

sale too...okay.. must check this one out... as we went in, the

Sales Assistant greeted us.. " Good Morning Maam. We are

having sale on our selected handbags on the 4th Flr ".

I just smile at them... Naik atas, pusing around the display

rack still tak nampak anything interesting which is up to

my ISO standard.. suddenly i spotted on a handbag on the

other side and they are on sale too... when I first look at the

price, I said... hhmm..still very mahal... then the S.Asst told

me that today they started to offer 50% on this range

otherwise it would be only 30%... terus je otak ni buat mental

calculation... iisyyy..that's quite reasonable!! and suddenly

I was behaving like Rebecca Bloomwood in Shopaholic...

ohh...i need to have this... i'll regret if i dont buy... i will not

be able to pay at this price during the non sale period..

Yesss...I'm going to have this one!!! There goes my budget...

I crash and burnt my pocket !!!

tapi tak kisahla...most important AKAK SUKERRR.....

ni la handbag 'bakarpoket"

I bought this toe ring as well from Miss Whatever (* i saw

the toe ring in CATCAT 's blog for the first time*).. cool!!

On the same day, at the concourse area, there was a launching

of Indonesian Tourism promotion by the Indonesian High

Commissioner. Their local tour operators were there to sell

their inbound packages. I was not so interested with the

packages but more to their local designers fashion show

and traditional dances..sorryla tak sempat nak snap all the

pix..Here are some of it :

tall, slim and pretty model... i want to have this figure!!!

kalau dah cantik, anything they wear, it will look very nice..


Thank you for visiting and reading.. Danke!! Guten Tag!!
