Central Market

April 1, 2010

The Central Market showcases KL’s culture and heritage through products like handicrafts, art, etc. It is divided into three zones, Larong Melayu, Straights Chinese, and Larong India, to highlight the various dominant races in Malaysia.

We took our time visiting and browsing the different stalls. This is where we bought our souvenir shirts, magnets, wallets, and chocolates (Beryl’s)! The owner of the chocolate shop was very kind and he made all four of us taste the different kinds of chocolate they have. Of course we never say no to free food, most especially chocolates. And because my companions are such chocoholics, we bought A LOT. I think the ladies dumped more than 5 kilos of chocolate in my backpack. If only we had our pre paid credit cards, I’m pretty sure we would have bought more. We were also able to persuade the merchants at one shirt store along Larong India to give us huge discounts, most probably because of KG’s bargaining skills and charm.

My wife bought some good quality pearls at one stall, and I was able to purchase a couple of awesome wooden boxes with mother of pearl inlay. And if you must know, we went back to Central Market one more time before leaving KL to do some last minute shopping and to get more chocolates.
