Saturday with a Mission │ A Coffee Shops And A Mall

Crunch Time

Today felt different from our usual Saturdays.

Instead of a relaxed stroll, the morning began with something serious. I stepped out at 10:45am to meet fellow houseowners at a nearby coffee shop to discuss the recent 30 April 2026 fire.

Five minutes later, I arrived at Ali, Muthu and Ah Hock. The sky was grey, and so were our moods. The conversation was heavy—questions, concerns, and a shared need for answers.

Back on the Move

After the meeting, I returned to the condo lobby where Cat was waiting. As we walked toward Bandaraya LRT Station, we quietly discussed what had been said. It lingered with us.

We caught a train toward Sentul and got off at PWTC, letting the rhythm of the city slowly pull us back into a more ordinary day.

Lunch at Sunway Putra Mall

From the station, we walked into Sunway Putra Mall and were glad to see it lively and bustling. Lunch was our first mission.

After a short wander, we settled on Sukiya and ordered the Family Set, which came with:

  • Teriyaki Chicken
  • Chicken Katsu
  • Rice, Miso Soup
  • Kara age, Gyoza
  • Chawanmushi, Watermelon
  • Drinks

All for RM43.90 (≈ USD11/EUR10)—a real deal. The meal was hearty, comforting, and exactly what we needed.

A Little Retail Therapy

After lunch, we stopped by Caring Pharmacy, but Cat couldn’t find the supplement she wanted. We then headed to MAX Fashion, where I picked up two pairs of slacks, and Cat found a bucket hat.

Total: RM144.50 (≈ USD37/EUR32)

More Browsing

We moved up to Sports Direct, but nothing caught our eye. Down one floor at Noko, we grabbed two loaves of bread and a packet of face masks for RM8.70 (≈ USD2/EUR2).

At the lower ground, Bread History tempted us—we left with a bag of pastries for RM28.80 (≈ USD7/EUR6).

Heading Home

With our errands done, we exited the mall, returned to PWTC LRT Station, and caught a train toward Ampang.

We got off at Bandaraya, walked along Jalan Esfahan past my office, and crossed Jalan TAR. The nearby lane was already filling with stalls preparing for the night market.

Ten minutes later, we were back home.

A Quiet End

Nothing extraordinary happened today.

Just:

  • A serious morning
  • A simple but satisfying meal
  • A bit of shopping
  • And a familiar walk home

And yet, it felt complete.

With our next adventure somewhere over the horizon in June, there is something to look forward to. Stay tuned!
