Holiday plaza is a mall or a hotel?
Click to expand...
Holiday Plaza WAS a thriving mall for pirated CDs back in the day...just like SLS back then but just more rampant. haha
I only went there few weeks ago for the 1st time in close to a decade or so to 回味. Actually can't remember the last time I went there.

Now it is just hair/nail salons, hp repair shops. even the McD there closed (due to covid)


Holiday Villa is the hotel. 1 street crossing away KSL. Holiday Plaza is further away, some 5 minutes walk

Any idea if there's any ramandan bazaar / market near KSL / City Square area?

There's one year during ramadan when we happened to meet an SG Malay friend near KSL. He told us that somewhere behind Holiday Plaza they'd a ramadan bazaar yearly. Not sure if still there this year, especially post-C19. Might want to see if you can ask any locals while you're in the area...

"Fancy" looking ones, can turn into a birthday cake.

But then again, a Kueh lapis birthday would definitely stand out.

Fancy-looking ones... somehow MidValley and even AEON Tebrau come to mind :unsure:

Kueh lapis would be... Lavender?

IMO it takes a brave heart to bring a creamy cake all the way home with the hope that it'll stay in shape 💪 :s13:
