When Everyone Heads to Singapore's Resorts World, My Family Takes a Different Approach

So it is my Dad's birthday and he gets to choose where he wants to spend his 59th birthday, instead of choosing Shang Palace, which my Mum and I expected he would, Daddy surprised us again with his answer:

G E N T I N G
M a l a y s i a
(Truly Asia)


Not only that, we were to be adventurous and take a bus to Genting!
(everyone knows how I don't really do well in buses, but I survived!)

Luckily we got a lovely room waiting for us at MAXIMS Genting
We stayed at one of the Maxims Suites which was large enough for the 3 of us and surprisingly well appointed withr Aigner toiletries and a walk-in closet. The rooms also came with complimentary evening cocktails, private check-in, assuring security and butler service. This was the first sign that Genting had indeed made some improvements since I last came -
around 12 years ago.


Here's some pictures I snapped of the room when we just checked in.




After the amazingly long bus ride I endured and refusing to eat the suspicious food during the rest stop, Mummy and I went to an Indian restaurant located steps away from the Genting Hotel's main lobby area where we had some wonderful


Chicken Vindaloo
Prawn Masala
Palek Paneer
&
Garlic Naan





One of the better Indian meals I have had for a while...
Extremely Sinful.
