KLCC to Avenue K (vice versa)

     
Ever since my KLCC to Pavilion sky bridge post has become the most popular post in my blog, it inspired me to write more of such posts to help you guys out with your directions around KL. :) I wouldn't dare say that I'm 100% familiar with the roads in the city but I'm just here trying my best to guide you in certain areas of the city. As a person who lives in KL, I'm happy to be able to assist you guys in finding your way towards different places. 😉 Since KLCC is one of the hot spots to visit in KL, I'm sure that you will be interested to find out what are the other malls that are connected to it too besides Pavilion. As you may have already guessed it, yes, it's Avenue K!

Located right at the opposite of both the Suria KLCC mall and the twin towers is the Avenue K shopping mall. The Avenue K mall itself is indirectly connected to the Suria KLCC mall. Why would I say that? For LRT users, you will most likely know that there is an underground LRT station that connects both Avenue K and KLCC together - aka the KLCC LRT station. However, for people who travel to KLCC by car, you might not know where the connection link between KLCC and AK is. Sure, you can reach Avenue K by just crossing the roads but don't you think it'll be a hassle? So, I hope this post will help you to get to Avenue K from KLCC without having to deal with 'crossing the road' troubles. 😀

Firstly, you have to get to the Ampang Mall wing of the Suria KLCC mall (which faces towards the direction of the Avenue K mall). Right here, you can see stores like Innisfree, Nyonya Colors, Nando's and cake sense. Remember, always ask for help at the concierge if you ever feel unsure of your directions.


Head straight towards the direction of the Nando's restaurant, which will be on your right and just continue walking straight.

Continue walking till you see this entrance which will lead you to the KLCC lrt station.

Then continue walking straight in the tunnel till you reach the lrt station.

Here, at the end of the underground tunnel, you will immediately spot the KLCC lrt station.

Here it is, the KLCC lrt station.

Of course, do not head towards the lrt station entrance hahaha. Just continue walking till you spot a H&M store on your left.

Here you are nearing the entrance of the Avenue K mall. Just take the escalators up and you will see shops like Subway and other food stores. You are now in Avenue K!

Taking one more escalator to head towards the ground floor of Avenue K mall.

After taking the escalator up, you will find yourself at the ground floor of the AK mall! :)


You'll find sephora right infront of you when you've arrived at the ground floor of the mall.



I hope you'll find this post helpful for you in planning your next trip here!

New Beginnings - Aug '17

       
Hey ya, as you may have already noticed, yes, I'm back with a new header and a new little side bar description! These photos were taken by both Ben and Brenda back then during our stay at the face suites back in July. I really like how these photos look and as such, I have decided to replace it with the previous blog header. Hope you guys will love this fresh new look. 😊

A lot of events have taken place since the beginning of the month of August. Of course, not all of it were happy ones. I had been dealing with some personal issues. Despite so, I hope that I will be able to go through all these stuff that is currently happening with a more positive and stronger mindset. Cheers to a whole new beginning! After two months of fun and games, my worries are starting to hit me real hard. My exam results. Thinking about it just makes me anxious but I just couldn't help it. Wish me luck. 💪

I went to Brenda's last Saturday. It was a good experience for me as I get to ride the local MRT for the first time ever! I was the only one among our gang who hasn't actually ridden the MRT before so I was definitely looking forward to it. You must be wondering, 'why would you even take public transport when you already know how to drive yourself?'. Well, I didn't know the way to Brenda's place. It was also quite far for me to drive all the way there myself. The only option I had was to take the MRT to the supposed station and Brenda would pick me up there. We parked our car at the Bandar Utama station. At 9.30am, my parents and I boarded the train in the Kajang line direction. It takes almost 4-5 minutes to go from one station to another. Yep, my parents actually accompanied me to take the MRT. We reached around 10.25am and from the Cheras station, Brenda's mom fetched me to her place.

The MRT station at Bandar Utama does have a park-and-ride facility. We entered the car park using our one U member card and if I'm not mistaken, the car park rate was RM1 for 4 hours (One U card) and RM2 for 4 hours for normal parking tickets.

Walking towards the station.

There we are, the entrance of the MRT station. We used the touch n go card for lower rates.

The stations were equipped with all sorts of facilities such as clean public restrooms.

The station looks really clean and bright, probably because it's still really new. 😆

Headed towards platform 1 for the Kajang line.

A route map.

The view inside the MRT. Clean, new and blue in theme.

That's how the open aired stations look like at a glance.

Also we got a glance at how the underground stations look like. It just looks like the ones in Singapore.

They said that the Bukit Bintang station was really pretty but too bad I didn't get to see it myself. :( Oh well, maybe next time! This is how the escalators in the Bukit Bintang MRT station looks like.

I would say the new MRT service was definitely really convenient for us and for everyone who gets to benefit from the service. Can't wait for the rest of the stations all around Kepong and other areas of KL to be completed soon! For more info, do visit the MRT Malaysia website to plan your journeys ahead. :)

Brenda and I had our lunch at this newly opened restaurant called Bobalife in Cheras. It was kind of hipster-ish I would say.

I ordered a large jasmine milk tea for RM8.90.

It was milky and smooth. I liked it a lot.

Brenda ordered a plate of fried rice and it was kindda meh..

Here's my chicken chop for RM17.90. I loved the BBQ sauce that comes with the chicken because it was really good.

I really had a whale of a time that day, thanks to Brendz and her lovely fam! :) 💗

On a Monday, I had a little catch up with my high school deskmate bestie, Huey Syuen. We had lunch at Take Eat Easy and spent the rest of the afternoon chatting. It was a really memorable day. :)

Tomato soup as starters.

We had chicken cordon bleu with fried rice as the main dish. RM19.90 for a set that includes a drink and a starter, which was the tomato soup. I would say.. the dish itself is quite bland and meh.

Iced peach tea in a cute conical flask.

We ordered a honey french toast with ice cream and other sweets on top. If I'm not mistaken, it was RM16.90. It was nice but the macaron was too sweet for my liking.

A BRAND NEW TOPIC IS POPPIN' UP SOON!

I was thinking, since I'm a fan of makeup and a lipstick addict, why don't I share my views/thoughts on certain products that I've tried and used before here with you guys? As a makeup user myself, I personally love reading other people's views and thoughts on different makeup products as I find it really useful for me in considering what products I should get in the future. So I'm happy to announce  that I'll soon be including posts of makeup and beauty products that I've tried and used before here to share with you all. Stay tuned for that! 😁




So that's all I'd like to share with you guys today, take care!
