Good Bye! Guang Zhou!!

Part 1 and part 2 here.

 Last post for Guang Zhou yo!  Sorry, there’s little pictures to share as my camera battery went die and all these photos are taken with my phone.

Whenever I travel to another country, there’s two things I must do. First is to check out their McDonald and KFC. Each country tends to have their own special version burgers. In Guang Zhou McD, they have Smoked Bacon Cheese Chicken Deluxe burger and Portuguese styled Pudding Mc Flurry.

The burger was awesome, just 2 additional add ons to the existing Mc Chicken Deluxe gives another degree of awesomeness to it.

So gonna go buy a normal McDeluxe and add cheese and bacon to it. XD

The Pudding McFlurry, is just Mc Flurry with caramel and Oreo bits.

Then, the second thing I must do is to visit the supermarket/mart or 7-11 of the country and check out their potato chips. Same like McD and KFC, every countries will have their snacks customized to fit the taste of their people.

And here I present you Lemon Flavor Potato Chips, now I shall eat like a sir. XD

I found out is a paradise for business people. If you have a shop, then you must visit Guang Zhou. The whole city is a trading hub. There are many buildings with wholesale suppliers. For example, this Nan Fang Building is a 9 floors building with mobile phone accessories, you can get lots of stuffs here at very low price.

Not suitable for tourist like us, so we got bored…

Walking aimlessly..

If you look carefully, you will noticed all the sky in the pictures are cloudy and looks like it gonna rain. But in truth, it is so badly polluted and hazy that the sun is blocked. :/ There’s no sign of blue color in the sky.  

Got bored and decided to go the nearest mall..

while we’re in the train…

You know sometimes people go up to you and ask you to donate some money for them in exchange of toys or something. Well, people here do it differently, they will secretly put the stuffs on you first and have you pay (donate) for it.  =.= Crazy.

What’s more crazy is that when Chicken Jack shook her hand off, the Fox still persists to “hand cuff” him until Chicken Jack have to raise both hands in the air to stop her.

Even in Malaysia, we don’t donate when sometimes they appears to be a scam with the fake Id and stuffs. Here in Guang Zhou, it is obviously a scam lor!!

It was such an awful experience, we felt so disgusted and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible but unfortunately the flight is on the next day. =.=

=.=

At that moment, I felt like to take a rocket and leave that place immediately.

Wasn’t in a mood to visit the store after that. We went for a lunch and some desserts..

These are from a franchise dessert shop from Hong Kong and famous for the mangoes which explains all these mangoes. For me, it tasted like any other mangoes XD No different.

Just right after the dessert, I noticed something…

Yea, that’s what I heard before I visit China. I was told that it is a norm to just spit on the floor in China.

but…

but…

=.= seriously..i cannot brain this..

Couldn’t take it longer and didn’t know where to go. We went for a karaoke session to kill our time.

The Karaoke here is damn cheap, less than RM10 for a single room only for an hour. No extra charge if you’re not ordering anything. And the songs are very up to date but only Chinese songs available.

After the karaoke session, we went for our dinner. Actually, we’re not really hungry but just to kill time.  

After the shocking scene where one guy scooped stuffs from the drain, we had all our meals in the malls and restaurant. And some how we ended up in this restaurant serving Chinese Tea in a wine glass.

You know you’re in deep shit when the restaurant serve the most cheapskate tea in a classy tall stand glass.

After seeing the tea, we did not dare to order anything that might be expensive like fish etc.

I’m not really fancy of the food since I have been eating Chinese food quite often in Malaysia.

So it’sjust a better version ones.

After the meal, we lurk around the mall before I insisted to go back to Bei Jing Street for another round of MOS before we leave Guang Zhou.

and the fox strikes again…

and this time cutting my queue!!!

and pretended nothing happens!!!! RAWRRRR!!!!

GARGH!!! As a gentleman, we didn’t pick a fight with him but instead verbally assault him in English. XD

I not sure whether he understands or not as most of the people here does not understand English much unless they are highly educated. If he does, he must be ashamed for what he had done as high education is nothing with such low morality.

Sometimes I think it’s an advantage to be a Malaysians as we know at least 2-3 languages.

 

Thanks to MOS. The awesomeness of the burger took our anger away.

Suddenly, I feel like taking a plane and fly to Singapore right now just for MOS Burger. XD

We headed back to the Inn.

Bought another potato chip, this chip is good. It’s Cucumber flavor.

It might sounds weird but the chips is very light and refreshing. ^^

A must try flavor.

.

.

The next day, we visited the one and only tourist spot over the few days..

The Chen Clan Ancestral Temple.  Actually, I have prepared and made a list of tourist spot to visit but our leader for the trip is not interested in all these historical stuffs which is why we keep visiting the malls. Le sad case.

After visiting this temple, I couldn’t agree more that it was a good decision to visit the malls instead.

The weather was very bad. The pollution, haze and the heat is killing our mood. @@

Took our last meal and we departed to the airport..

The gateway back to the real world. *tears up*

I have never miss home as much as this.

Miao in Guang Zhou (Part 1)

because this time, I was on my way to..

China, has never been on my I-must-visit-this-place list. I don’t really fancy China and I don’t know why. And most of the times, I tends to skip those travel shows when that episode is about China. ^^”

But since, my bros wanted to go, so I followed. It’s a rare chance for us to gather and travel together, although couple of them couldn’t make it.

I have heard a lot of bad stories about China people and even before I depart, my family gave me some advises…

and I encountered it straight away at the airport..

That’s kinda expensive for such a short ride. We kinda hesitated and it seems like it’s the only choice as she said there’s no buses and subway service around.. not until…

and saw the subway sign very very far behind. O_O!!

That fella lied!!  RAWR!! If I do not have a pair of cat eyes, for sure we need to pay for that cab and I just googled and stated the rate is $150 .

Whee.. I’m the cat GPS again. Some how, every trip, I happens to be the one holding the map. XD

First meal in Guang Zhou. Had this at the airport, a fast food franchise called Master Kang or something.

After the meal, we took a 30 minutes train ride to reach the station near our inn. The train ride was comfortable, it looks very clean and new and the whole ride is underground.

This is our first view.

Kinda run down. I think we’re somewhere at the old part of the city.

And the shops’ name plates made me goes “urrk” . Most of the shops here do not bother branding or marketing.

And then, we faced a problem. The map we had wasn’t very detail and we had difficulties looking for our inn.

We thought of getting a cab to get us there but…

But none of them want to send us there. They said it’s very near and drove away. :|  Without any other choice, we forced to carry our luggage and tried to figured the location out. Luckily, we managed to find it.

The distance was walk-able but not very near lor!! =.=

After a rest and couple hours of naps, we grabbed our map and lurked around the city for food but got lost again. LOL. Blame the map for being so inaccurate and not detailed. XD

There’s a food street but we just couldn’t find it. We gave up and move to the other destination, Bei Jing street but got lost again and ended up a park with some uncles playing chess. hahaha let’s blame on the map again. :P

After asking a couple of pedestrians, we managed to locate the place. First thing first!! FOODD!!

In China, they have this fast food chain that sells steamed rice with braised meat called KungFu.

Taste wise: Normal.

After the meal, we crossed over the road to Bei Jing Street.

Bei Jing street, it’s a street mall. Something unusual for us as we used to shop in a closed mall with air-cons. XD

It’s kinda nostalgic to walked on this street as it was an important street and a part of the great city in the old days.

They even kept part of the road without tar and bricks just to display the old road structures.

There are lots of shops but with brands we have never heard of.

Not sure they are famous brand in China or not. Some of them are selling shirts as low as RM2.5 per piece and some are selling at 3 digits.

Another Kungfu franchise. This actually marks the middle of the street.

and we walked and walked and walked. I kinda got bored and stopped taking any photos.

We didn’t bother went into the shops either as we’re not familiar with the brands and quality.

.

 .

Then, I saw this..

It’s MOS Burger!!! One of my favorite fast food franchise!!

 

It’s MOS burger! It’s a must eat!! No matter what!! RAWRR!!

I just love their uncut lettuces with their Teriyaki marinated patty. So good~~

Actually, I have never try others MOS burger beside this. I just couldn’t stand it to order other burgers. XD Too bad, they do not have Milk Tea in Guang Zhou branch else it would be purrfect.

Sigh~~ Too bad MOS are not planning to come to Malaysia from what I heard.

After the awesome MOS burger, we continued walking. =.=  So much walking and so tiring, we decided to call it a day and walked back to our inn.

Got ourselves a dessert on our way home, it’s something called “Twin Milk” in Mandarin. It’s like pudding made from milk.

I heard it’s a specialty/famous here. Okay, not bad but nothing to shout about.

As we’re near the river, we took a detour and walked to riverside.

I like this well preserved and maintained old building by the river. We used to have something similar here but sadly, our government likes to demolish old well-designed historical buildings. :/

This is the Pearl River that separates the city into two.

I have no idea what bridge is that but I like it. It is so colorful. XD

That’s all. Do stay tune for the next part. :)
