JB Little India and L' Table ....

Oh ...if you noticed a silence from me lately from my blog, well,  I am actually taking a break from blogging as well as wanted to spend my free time on other stuffs. I have been very busy with work lately as well as my other personal tasks and thus, I thought its a good idea to switch off a while. I had a busy weekend too, starting from taking a half day leave last Friday to renew my passport in UTC JB, attended my little princess kindy graduation concert (how time flies.... phew...), attended church as usual, ran some errands, shop for my coming trip in December and etc.

Anyway, I did had quite a good time last Friday alone while at UTC, JB to renew my passport. Oh, I must compliment the UTC initiative as it provided folks like me to renew my passport on a Friday afternoon. Though it took me almost 4 hours to settle my travel document, I find that it's bearable as it's a Friday where it's a non-working day in JB. At least, I got my passport renewed! While waiting to collect my passport, I spent around 2 hours shopping around at City Square as well as walked around the Deepavali carnival in JB.


It was so happening at JB's Little India

Lots of stalls temporary setup for the festival!


Its was kinda jam too!
 While waiting for my little princess concert last Sunday, we had a pleasant lunch at Lavender's HQ, called the L' Table. The menu is very different from those of Lavender Bistro and it's also costlier. However, I love the ambiance over there, it was quiet and relax as well as they provided good service!

The L' Table
My kid had a Miso type of Pasta ... can't remember the name ... 

A Salmon Pasta for my wifey

A Cheedar Ham and Cheese Sandwich for me

And an Earl Grey Tea pot for all of us

The Bakery ... located at the ground floor where pastry and breads are sold here 

A place for folks to have coffee and pastry only 
It was a nice weekend and looking forward to a great week! :)

    1. Not convenient for Japanese food as we needed to rush for the kindy concert. Have to go somewhere nearby.

  5. Haiyar!!! I thought you went to Little India to eat Indian food. I love banana leaf rice! We can't get that here. Deepavali no public holiday here, would just pass by unnoticed - so very few Indians, two hands enough to count...may see quite many these days though, but they're illegals.

  18. Satisfying food choice that you had.
    I went to UTC here to refill my teeth, they only allow refilling one tooth at a time so I had to go there 3 separate weekends to get 3 teeth filled up, but I had to go there to beat the queue, saving hundreds of ringgit is worth it.
