Never-ending Fun at Sunway Lagoon

I visited Sunway Lagoon twice around 12 years ago, and stayed at Sunway Pyramid Hotel since I could not really afford the atas Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa. If you book through Agoda using UOB credit card, there is a further discount of 5%. I paid SGD230 for two nights' stay. 

Sunway Lagoon did not change much, just that there are more attractions now with their exciting Water Park, Wildlife Park, and Extreme Park. Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall is exactly the same like some of the Singapore's malls. To think there are about 50 eateries to choose from, you are totally spoilt for choice.


We had our late lunch at Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant, and all the foods we ordered were super yummy just like what we had in Taiwan. I would have dabao all the items from their menu if my tummy had enough space.


Did I mention there is a Hui Lau Shan dessert shop at Sunway? My craving was satisfied, no need to travel all the way to Hong Kong. They have durian mochis now, and always try out their bird's nest in coconut. Do order early to avoid disappointment as there are limited stock per day. Sometimes, coconut dessert is only available on weekends.


After some rest, we headed to Hello Kitty Cafe for dinner. If you are looking to try out their main courses, do arrive earlier or you would be having mostly desserts just like us. Of course the decorations could not be compared to the one we visited in Taipei, but this is already good enough. They don't even have a HK Cafe in Singapore, pretty upsetting for me.

Due to some error, I had booked my room for one. So we are only entitled to one buffet breakfast, and any additional breakfast per person is about RM80. I can eat four sets of KFC with that price. Anyway, the hotel staff is kind enough to arrange breakfast for two on our first day which means no breakfast at all on second day.


If you intend to try out every single attraction at Sunway Lagoon, one day is not enough. We did not go for Scream Park, and only went to children section at Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon. 


Hubby was quite interested in the Extreme Park, and he started playing with Go-Kart plus ATV jungle ride. Note that Go-Kart, Bungy Jump, and G-Force X require additional charges.


Wildlife Park up next, and indeed it was much larger in scale than Lost World of Tambun's Petting Zoo.


Who could resist those kiddy rides at Amusement Park? Certainly not me, I'm young at heart. *BHB*


Our last stop at Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon before taking a train to tour around Sunway Lagoon.


Dinner with my lovely KL colleagues at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. I wanted to try out when we were in Hong Kong a few years back, but we were all kind of down with food poisoning. So our trip to The Peak was cancelled. Glad that they have a branch in Sunway.
