Toppen opening very soon!

Take grab better, bus frequency low

I managed to go for my first half-hour joyride on MV2 last weekend.

Was walking out of Mid Valley ready to book with Grab when I saw the bus arriving with only a handful of people boarding, so I decided to hop on.

It's evening so I'd a nice time looking around Berjaya Waterfront when we're passing through. I've never been there, so...

For Tebrau City area (Tesco, Aeon, Toppen, IKEA), Grab's my choice.

MV2 is every half hour 1 bus @xx.15 or xx.45, also dependent on traffic conditions.

Toppen I find quite inconvenient if not driving. One thing I like is Ace hardware is there, I find it stocks better stuff than MRDIY.

JB central to Toppen mall about $19 ringgit,,, not sure is cheap.. just take.

The other day I paid 16rm there and 33rm back. 6pm stuck in traffic jam took 40 mins to get back to City Square

Didn't really find the mall very interesting. Gonna stick to Midvalley which is our usual haunt anyway. At least if Grab surge can still take the bus for 1rm back to JB Sentral.

Mid valley to sg, usually no jam.
Paradigm like fudge

my take

Mid Valley: Best atmosphere, 5 stars toilets, least crowded, many branded stuff~ many seats to rest which i like~ if wanna jiak DTF or A&W, its the best place to go~

Paradigm: Big spacious, many shops are as big as departmental store~ the only thing that attracts me is HomePro~ Parking can be a nightmare, goin up the high ramp~

Toppen: Best suitable for family with kids, many Instagram-able props and kids play~ If there's HomePro, it would be perfect~

KSL: Lowest SES mall compare to the above but hv the most sinkies~ cheap crawl machines, RM10 11 plays~ many saloon, specs shops & handphone repair/ accessories shops~

Toppen doesn't have a lot of fashion brands, so if u r into shopping then u will be a little disappointed.

If u r a parent, there are many shops that are catered to u and ur kids.

Many claw machines as well!

Heading for staycation tmr at JB...Not sure if should go Toppen or other malls. Staying at MT. Austin

Toppen is quite interesting, mall concept is more unique compared to the usual malls. True to the instagrammable places to take pictures but once u see the condition of the filthy sofas etc I think u might think twice on landing ur butts on it 'just for the gram', esp now wuhan don't pray pray

Toppen is boring.

I went there last week.... almost ghost town.. not worth going... stick to Paradium mall, KSL, City square and mid valley better.

My family went there to shop and find it boring. Later we went to Aeon Tebrau City to shop, much more value for money and variety.

I would have to say Toppen is really only suitable for families with kids. I was there over the weekends and they have free folded balloons (by a pretty scary looking clown) for the kids on the rooftop, as well as cupcake making sessions. Inside the malls are several free of charge indoor playgrounds. Besides that, there’s a rock climbing wall for adults which is free of charge as well.

Overall, the variety of shops and restaurants definitely lose to say Citysquare or Southkey or Paradigm or even Aeon Tebrau just across the street. But then again, I much rather they try something new, something different, than just build a giant seven storey mall and cramp as many different shops as possible into it.

If you’re really heading there, do remember to bring your physical Singapore IKEA card along- many shops give 10% discount. Download the Toppen app beforehand and there’s a few RM10 vouchers you can collect for various shops.

Lastly, you can drop by IKEA to grab a couple of items for free parking- but do note the cashier at IKEA always damn long queue.
