Most of the items on display at the Museum are masks and carvings from the Mah Meri and Jah Hut tribes. The Mah Meri of Selangor are among the most well known Orang Asli tribes. They live close to the coast and make a living as fishermen, although in recent years, tourism has also become an important source of livelihood. They are extremely skilled at woodcarving, hence the masks which are used in rituals and ancestor worship.
There are also woven pieces, agricultural tools, clothes made from bark, weapons, and musical instruments. The museum is all too small, as it is interesting but won’t take much longer than 45 minutes to look round. I definitely recommend considering it as part of an extension to the National Museum rather than making a separate visit. Think of it as 3 museums for RM10 when added to the Ethnology of the Malay World Museum, and in that spirit it’s worth the entry fee and the journey.
I ordered their Seafood Meehoon and it was served in a matter of minutes. Truly amazing flavours and they were generous with the seafood. Everything was just perfect. In fact, it wouldn't be wrong for me to say that this was the best Noodles dish that I have had in a cafe. If you're around Glomac Damansara, do drop by and you'd be amazed by the flavours and hospitality. 9/10 shall be my rating for the above dish. Highly recommended.
When it comes to steak restaurants in KL, Las Vacas is one of the more successful ones. The fact that they have grown to four branches and are still around after 10 years is a testament to them doing something right. And that ‘something’? I think it’s serving what the customers ask for: affordable and decent steaks.
Las Vacas is renowned for diners selecting their choice of the best beef cuts and marbling before getting the kitchen team to whip it up to their liking. There is always a solid range of premium quality beef ranging from grain fed to grass fed and to the premium wagyu up to marbling of 9. All beef are wet aged for 3 weeks to produce beefy robust flavours. Food ingredients used are halal certified. Fear not if beef is not your thing as they also serve chicken, lamb, salmon as well as pasta, burgers and sandwiches.
I didn’t manage to visit the restaurants but some of my friends do visit the pubs here at night and they enjoyed it. Thus, I also did some of my grocery shopping in Ben’s Independent Grocer Supermarket.
