KLANG HISTORY
KLANG HISTORY
lang Valley, or Lembah Klang in Malay, is named after Klang River, which
is associated to the early development of the area as a cluster of tin mining
towns in the late 19th century. Situated in the centre of the west coast of
Peninsular Malaysia, Klang Valley comprises the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur
and its adjoining districts in Selangor, namely Gombak, Hulu Langat, Petaling and
Klang, covering an area of 2826 square kilometers. Geographically, it is delineated
by Titiwangsa Mountain Range to the north and east, and the Strait of Malacca to
the west.
Being the most vibrant and lively region in the country, Klang Valley is the heartland
of Malaysias industry and commerce and is always buzzing with vitality. Home to
a great number of migrants from other states within Malaysia and foreign workers
from Indonesia, Myanmar, India and Nepal, it is considered as the fastest growing
region in the country with many more rapidly growing
new towns and yet more is believed to develop in the
near future.

Sze Ya Temple
he oldest Taoist temple in the city, going all the way back to 1864. Built by one of the
founders of Kuala Lumpur, Kapitan Yap Ah Loy, the temple features a magnificent
display of elaborate decorations. The temple, located in the Chinatown area of KL
pays tribute to the patron deities, Sin Sze Ya and Si Sze Ya, in which it was believed that
the prophecy of the deity, Sze Ya had guided
the Kapitan Cina during the Selangor Civil
War. The temple is unique in that the two
main deities worshipped were not traditional
deities originating from China; instead, they
were two local people who were elevated
to the status of deities based on their merit.
Hence, the two deities are considered to be
patron deities of locals in Kuala Lumpur.

hen speaking of Kuala Kubu tragedy, it is often related to the broken dam.
In February 1883, the town was severely flooded due to a dam nearby that
broke, killing many civilians and damaging their homes. Many of the town
buildings were destroyed beyond repair, except a Buddhist temple and a mosque
which you will get to see when youre here. The flood victims included even Sir Cecil
Ranking who was a district officer during the British era. The old town of Kuala Kubu
was known as Broken Dam or Ampang Pecah in Malay and the tragedy has been
named Kuala Kubu Tragedy by the locals. The British, however, decided to build a
new town near the remains of Kuala Kubu, right after the tragedy occurred. This new
town is names Kuala Kubu Bharu, which bharu means new in Malay. A monument
to commemorate the tragedy has also been built here.
ertak Dam, or officially known as Selangor Dam, is built to replace the old
broken dam that caused the massive flood. There is a river called Pertak River
that flows along the Aborigines village into the dam. Some remains of the old
town are believed to be underwater of it. Rumour says that when Sir Cecil Ranking
was shooting the sacred white crocodile that appeared at the dam in attempt to kill
it, he missed a few shots and the bullets hit the wall of the dam, causing the dam to
break and flood the whole town. No matter how different the stories we get, they
are always related to the legend of the sacred white crocodile. To the locals, this new
dam is precious, as it reminds them of the history of their serene and quaint little
town.

oriental deities, including Kuan Yi (goddess of mercy) and the Monkey King.
Opposite is an equally ornate seafood restaurant that resembles a temple
complex. Open throughout the day (and even night), the temple is free to enter as
long as you do your exploration quietly. Tourists and holidaymakers commented
that the temple is the one of the biggest and most beautiful architecture in
Port Dickson. The outer walls of the temple resemble a fortress while numerous
legendary statues such as the historical monk Xuanzang, Sun Wukong and Zhu
Bajie are placed within the temple's compound. Looking spectacular from the top

Coffee Culture
lthough Malaysia is not the birthplace of famous and commercial coffee types in
the world, but Malaysians enjoy their own cup of coffee. We dont have the classic cafes
like those that can be found in New York, Milan or Melbourne, but we love our kopitiams.
Come and join us as we proudly introduce our local coffee to all of the curious coffee
lovers out there.
The local coffee beans are either roasted with margarine or sesame seeds for a smokey
and robust flavor. Some roasters are ancient and can be identified from the black, sootfilled ceilings. No matter where the coffee is served in Malaysia, the locals enjoy having
it with toasts spread with kaya, which is a type of coconut jam as one of the choices for
breakfast.
Approximately 25,000 hectares of land in Malaysia are reserved for coffee agriculture,
especially in Kelantan, Kedah, Terengganu, Selangor, Melaka and Sabah, producing
both the lower grade Robusta and higher grade Arabica coffee plants with 95% of the
crop is Liberica coffee even though it accounts only 2% of the worlds coffee production.
Coffee in kopitiam or mamak restaurants can be enjoyed anytime even though the
local coffee culture is affected by the likes of modern coffee culture such as Starbucks
and Coffee Bean. Local coffee consumers still look for Malaysian coffee no matter how.
Therefore, the local coffee is expanding and being sold depending on the customers
preferences.

Kopi-O
Locals love black coffee too. Kopi-O is a version of coffee
with only sugar and without any milk or its substances.
Being served either hot or cold, this is a perfect choice
for coffee lovers who do not prefer the taste of milk added
in it. It can be a little bit bitter for some people, though,
depending on the place the coffee beans were produced
and how they were roasted.
Kopi Kosong
With kosong meaning
zero, the coffee is
served without sugar
and not even milk. This
is dedicated for the true
coffee lovers who enjoy
the pure taste of coffee.
If youre on a diet or a
vegetarian, then this is a
choice of coffee for you.

alaysia is popular with the MEGA SALES every quarter of the year.
Shopping in Malaysia is an adventure of discovery. Since it is situated at
the crossroads of Asia, it presents to tourists the best that the region can
offer. It has rare treasures of the Orient, branded designer goods, and even
intricate local handicrafts. The exemption of duty on certain items has also resulted
in more competitive pricing and made shopping in Malaysia much more attractive
option.

FOOD REVIEW
ooking for a Casual French dining experience!!! Look no further as our food review
team indulged in the fantastic dinner experience of Topshelf Restaurant@TTDI.
Located at Lorong Rahim Kajai 13, the restaurant is run by Managing Partner
Hairenna Othman and Chef Patron Christopher Yee. With their combine experience,
Topshelf has been serving Casual French dishes for almost 2 years.
Chef Christopher and Hairenna started us off with Moules Marinierre which is mussels
cooked in white wine, Escargot au beurre baked snails with butter and herbs, Salad
Nicoise a lovely dish of fresh greens served with tomatoes, quail eggs and tuna. We
then was served our main course Beef Bourguinon which is a slow cooked beef in red
wine served with mash potatoes and vegetables, lastly we had the Confit de canard
which is the star of the meal. This dish is a duck confit served with fondant potatoes
with long beans and salad. For our dessert, we had Malibu Parfait and their famous
Crme Brulee.
We recommend anyone who is looking for French cuisine or wanting to try something
different, do visit Topshelf Restaurant@TTDI Im sure you will walk away satisfied.

amplings on the Fourteen is a fine dining fusion outlet initially set up by Berjaya
University College of Hospitality. During daytime, it functions as a training
platform for the students and before night falls, the renowned Chef Val and
his team takes over the limelight. This restaurant is a perfect place for a quiet dining
getaway with breathtaking, unparalleled views of the city.
The ambiance is posh-looking and dimly lit. The best venue for romantic dates.
Couples, do check out the window seats which are over-looking the magnificent KL
view. Their a la carte menu consists of western classic fine dining cuisine that covers
all 7 courses - To Begin, To Warm, To Grain, To Fish, To Meat, To Grill and To Finish.

famous for its street food at food court. Food is available at almost every corner of
