Cyberjaya, Here We Come!

We're going away. Yaaay!!! Finally.

Even as I blog this, Mae is packing our bags. Tonight we leave for Cyberview Lodge, Cyberjaya. Okay, I know how silly this must sound to some of you, but we do need a vacation that isn't too far. Just in case Baby decides to show up. :)

On the way home from office, I suggested to Mae that we have our dinner there as well. But five minutes later, I get this sudden craving for Hainanese Chicken Rice - the one near the EPF in PJ.

"Honey, how 'bout we eat Chicken Rice?"

"WHAT??" Mae exclaims at the preposterousness of my request. I guess it's understandable. We did have Chicken Rice for lunch. And we had Chicken Rice earlier in the week. And then there was that same EPF Chicken Rice last week. Hehh!

"No! We're eating in Cyberjaya, and that's that". She didn't bop me on the head this time but I'm sure she meant to.

Goes to show that you can take a boy out of Hainan, but you can't ever take the Hainan out of a Hainanese boy. Well, at least not the part about the Chicken Rice.

But still, I'm grinning like a Cheshire Cat. We're going to Cyberjaya! Yaay!

  2. Cascata at Cyberview Lodge serves an excellent pizza, though I don't much go for their pasta. Tiramisu is great too!
    /the other restaurants at the lodge are average or below.

  5. Nothing good to see in Cyberjaya - only barren lands, greens, and buildings of er, slightly different architectural elements from the ones in the city. There's one big food court (DeliMalaysia) and Street Mall (with a, ahem, Nasi Ayam Malaysia) there, though.
    Putrajaya is a tad bit more interesting, with its many suspension-like bridges.
    As always - pictures! :D

  7. i'll just bet you will check your emails, your website/blog, read blogs, surf the web when you're in your room...!
    [FYI, all rooms in Cyberview Lodge have broadband]
    Try the spa - it's quite good. They even have rooms for couples.

  22. Zsarina, it's not that hard on the pocket. We got ours at RM288 per room per night. The subsequent night we took the SPA package. That came up to RM450 or thereabouts. Go. It'll be great for a 2nd honeymoon!
    Ariel. :)
