what we call LIFE

My boyfriend's birthday celebration just doesn't end with one party . On his birthday itself, both of us had our own celebration @ the Westin Hotel=) That's bcoz a month earlier he'd applied for the Starwood Priviledge Card , which comes with a complimentary stay voucher in any Starwood Hotels, hehe* Tho the card was slightly priced on the steeper side i must say that it actually provides pretty good benefits and priviledges including discounts for restaurants and room rates. Ask me for more info if you're interested in applying the card=p Our 24 hr stay at Westin was brilliant...much better than Marriott, which i liked to stay for a night or two when i had the YTL card..Yes, i do enjoy staying at nice hotels (when i have the $$ and the occasion to do so..) u ppl will understand once you've experience the total indulgence of it=')

(lunch @ Prego)

Upon arrival we had our 2-course lunch at Prego , the food wasn't bad but not too fantastic either. Thumbs up for their services tho. I wish every restaurant offers the same service as they do but bahss..anyway, we checked into our room after lunch and for the first time I got to finally experienced the comfort of their signature Heavenly Bed.. IT was sooooo soft and comfy that anyone could fall asleep on it right away! the price of the bed was 10 k fyi, and my boyfriend said it was considered cheap (?) We wanted to take a dip in their swimming pool but unfortunately it rained the whole afternoon. Stupid Weather. I hate rainy days now *gRaRrr* ( our room & the Heavenly Bed)

Since we had nothing much to do after loitering for bout 2 hrs in the room and opening his presents given by non-other than = ME , we decided to go for tea time at TREATS cafe in the hotel itself. Everything in Westin is HEAVENLY..! Even the cakes and pastries in the cafe looked awesome and mouth-watering.. I reallie reallie wanted to try all of 'em but both our stomach just couldn't fit all=p We had berry trifle & chocolate doughnut, similar to the BIg Apple's choreo doughnut..and OMG ,it tasted 100x better than Big Apple's.. drools* We even get discounts on the total bill.. the perks of having that card, muahaha*
( selections at Treats :P )


We were so darn full that we had to postponed our dinner supposingly at 7pm to 8 pm at Qba Latin Grill & Bar. If u were to dine in Westin, make sure u choose Qba coz #1 the food's delicious ,#2 it's a place to impress ur girlfren/boyfren #3 ambience's spectacular and #4 staffs there are very professional and attentive..u'll love the attention given to u..Obviously, the price isn't friendly, u pay for what u get..A price of a simple steak with no side dishes or etc starts from RM105+ (yikes!) We were seated at the private dining area overlooking the open kitchen.. Would like to sit by the balcony to enjoy the live band downstairs the next time we visit tho.. i forgot to bring along a camera ..which means all the pics were taken using our camera phones=)

By the time our dinner ended it was alredi near 11pm and all the shopping malls were closed and we were left with nowhere to go. There wasn't even space in our stomachs to go for yumcha at that time so we ended up walking around the golden triangle and headed back up to our heavenly room=p I had by far, the best sleep ever in monthss and the very next day i was so unwilling to get up from the bed to check out..yes, it was THAT comfy! We ended our stay with a buffet lunch @ the Living Room before our check out. How nice if only life continues to be this way..

Happy Birthday to you again!! =))
