KIDZ Republic

#weekendgetaways bring me to Johor Bahru for weekend excitement at Johor Bahru City Center for staycation. The kids like this place because there are kiddy rides for them just next to Holiday Inn JCC hotel ground floor lobby. The older children can take self-driving rides and the younger children can take the stationary rides. This month the theme is dinosaur, and the boys will like it better. There is a staff there facilitating the rides and you can pay him cash. Sometimes when there are no children in the queue, you can get to ride a bit longer. The area to ride these kiddy rides is pretty big too. You can walk over to JB city square too.

JBCC fashion mall

#weekendgetaways bring me to Johor Bahru for weekend shopping at Johor Bahru City Center. During weekends, there are many stalls set up here to sell clothes, food and handicrafts. This is a popular shopping mall for many Singaporeans during weekends. It is near the immigration checkpoint and has walkway shelter linking the immigration building to the shopping center. There is also a hotel above the shopping center. It is safe and easy access for shoppers and if you have luggage, it is also easy to use the lifts and escalator too. Don’t forget to bargain for some discounts when you are shopping at the weekend market.

Thai Express at Komtar Shopping Mall

#malaysiatrip Just a few minutes away from the checkpoint, I visited the Komtar Shopping Mall at Johor Bahru. Yes I know we can find this eatery in Singapore but hey, it is cheaper in Johor so why not. I ordered the Fish with lime sauce, Green Curry Chicken Set, Prawn Egg Omelette Rice Set and Mango Salad. If you are eating at this outlet, please be patient as service is not as fast and when dining there, there were some flies flying around. Feedback to the cashier and I hope they do something about it! Hopefully the next visit will better!

Early Morning Breakfast at McDonald's

#familytrips2024 Reached early to Johor but shops are not open yet? You can choose to have an early breakfast at McDonald's Komtar JBCC branch. This is not a very big outlet, thus seats are limited. Order can be through the self service kiosk or through the McDonald's Malaysia mobile order. The breakfast selections at McDonald's include Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng, which is not available in the Singapore menu. There are also other usual McDonald's breakfast selections such as McMuffin, Big Breakfast and Hotcakes.

Chill at cat cafe at JB Komtar

Cat cafes are places where people can enjoy drinks and snacks while interacting with cats. Some possible reasons why people like cat cafes are: - They love cats but cannot own them due to various reasons, such as apartment regulations, allergies, or busy schedules. Cat cafes allow them to experience the companionship and affection of cats without the commitment and responsibility of owning them⁴. - They find cats relaxing and therapeutic. Petting cats and listening to their purring can reduce stress and anxiety, and improve mood and well-being³. Cat cafes are also usually quiet and cozy places, which can help people unwind and escape from their hectic lives. - They are curious and adventurous. Cat cafes offer a unique and fun experience that is different from ordinary cafes. People can try different types of coffee and tea, as well as cat-themed food and merchandise, while observing and playing with various breeds and personalities of cats. Some cat cafes also have special features, such as art jamming with cats² or cageless adoption centers.#JB Komtar #Cat cafe

Similar to the atrium at the city Square, there will be sales at the atrium of the komtar JBCC shopping mall. Compared to the city Square mall which is just beside the komtar JBCC, there isn't much of a crowd when I was there on a Friday afternoon. The ongoing sales booths at the atrium are selling pillow casing and bolsters. You can visit there often to check out the various sales available. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers

Luxury Leather Shoes Collections

Ground Floor Lot GF 78 & 79 Paradigm Mall Jalan Skudai Johor 81200 Malaysia The Tomaz is a local brand that sells leather shoes. The shop has more than 18 outlets in the entire Malaysia. As seen from the images, the ambiance and design of the shop gives a very luxurious feel. It portraits the branded goods aura. A look at the shop makes me want to walk in and make multiple purchases. Apart from their famous leather shoes, they also retail other items too. This includes gaming chairs and luxury watches and shirts. The luxury watch cost 1000 MYR to at least 8000my. Their shirts are also on a higher end pricing. With a tee shirt costing 250 MYR and above. However they do have sales from time to time. Sometimes even have a 50% discount.

Trip to Komtar JBCC

KOMTAR JBCC, City Centre, 80000 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia The komtar JBCC is located beside the city Square mall. From the Malaysian Johor immigration customs, you will need to walk 15 to 20 minutes to reach here. There are a few hotels opposite the mall. They include the trove hotel, amari hotel, and the five stones hotel. The komtar JBCC seems to be a quieter and lesser crowd compared to the city Square shopping mall when I went there. The mall includes lots of restaurants and two big apparel brands including FOS and the brand's outlet. Both offer cheap and good quality clothing with a wide range of choice. Do come by the komtar JBCC when you are visiting the city Square mall. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers
