Telang 18 Cafe

Telang 18 Cafe
Alllll the way at Hulu Langat

Why we landed in this cafe was because we were on our way to Congkak Park, to visit the Hutan Hutan Market. Did not want to be stuck there with a hungry tummy. Needed to make sure tummies are full then only go explore. 

Telang 18 was a pretty place. Food was just okay but presented nicely. Place are filled with kitty cats. 

For those who still do not know, Bunga Telang is Butterfly pea flower. Blue drinks. If you add lemons, it will be purple drinks!

Congkak Park & Resort

Hutan Hutan Market
at Congkak Park & Resort
Hulu langat

Always wanted a good reason to visit this forest park as its pictures were always so inviting. Reason arrived. Huge market had been set up right in the forest. Let’s go!

A few “no fun” things when visiting were 1) Parking has to be further away. Although parking areas were provided, fees were RM5-6 per entry. I didn’t mind that but I thought paying for an entrance fee of RM5 to enter the park was ridiculous. We were not enjoying the park but the market. Oh well.

Market was fun. Vendors were nice and not sombong! 
Park was pretty in green. 



See those 2 cuties!
They were posing for their owner. 

Bumped into my primary school classmate. First time meeting after 43 years!!!!


I must share with you this hilarious but oh so true story.  I was standing in front of a pizza booth. Soft breeze waltzed by. I smelt JASMINE!
I turned around. Across the road, there were 2 perfume stalls next to each other. I went hunting for Jasmine. 

This young man is Mr. C. S. Pua;
Mr. Magic nose and fingers;
The genius behind Utopia Aromatherapy. 
I found my Jasmine! 

CS named the perfume that magically found its way to my nose ELEGANCE.
Top notes: Lily of the Valley
Heart notes: Jasmine
Base notes: Ylang-Ylang

AWESOME combination 🩷









Chee Kiok!!!
