Saree Shopping Part 2

When my other bestie saw the sarees Tira and I got at Little India, Klang, she too got excited. We were supposed to head to Jalan TAR and visit my colleague, Sashi's friend to have our saree top made. Unfortunately, there was a change of plans. Sashi's friend was not around. Since time was running out, we decided to head there ourselves and do a little shopping. We left the house as early as 9am to avoid traffic. The shops at Masjid India a.k.a. Jalan TAR does not open as early as the shops at Little India, Klang. To buy time, we first had breakfast at Station Kopitiam. FYI, there's only one kind of breakfast set which cost rm5.90 each. The breakfast set comes with 2 half boiled eggs, toast and a selection of either coffee or tea.

We then headed to a few stores to look for sarees for Aaina. I would say the for saree shopping, Little India is better. Of course, there are cheaper selections here but for quality and reasonable price, Little India is better. After that, we headed to Semua House. My cousin recommended this shop called TBC for indian jewelries. Now, please take note of one important thing. When it comes to shopping for Indian jewelries, it is important to bring along your saree so that you will get to buy the exact sort of bangles that will match your saree. We were then recommended by the sales person to go to this tailor called the VKS tailoring services. A standard saree top tailoring fee is RM35.

After visiting the tailor, we headed for Ibrahamshaa for their famous Nasi Kandar Penang. We had to walk a little to go to the shop. Walking is good to prepare for the food we were about the stuff our face with. :p

I had Nasi Kandar with Ikan Goreng and Sotong Kari + Kuah Campur whilst Tira had Nasi Kandar with Sotong Kari, Caviar and Omelette.  

Yummy right?

10 minutes later..... we practically cleaned our plates. LICIN!

On our way back to the car, we walk pass their so called market. There were a lot of good bargains there. Aaina got crazy with the English cotton sold there!

Super excited Aaina!

She's going crazy and can't make up her mind! 

We then drop buy the malay costume jewelry shop to shop for the small tudung pins. RM10 for 12 pieces! Good bargain right? The is however other shops that sells RM10 for 13 or 14 but we chose the shop with the widest selection.

In the car, Aaina tried some of the jewelry pieces she got.

Anyway, our tops will be ready next week on Sunday, 13th May. We'll be heading there again then. For the mean time, we're keeping our fingers crossed and hope for the best!
