London - Day 7 (Long-haul flight)

-
It's our last day here in London and before we check out from the hotel we had our brunch at Westminster Kitchen just 2 minutes walking distance from Premier Inn London County Hall. Breakfast starts from 7am to 12pm everyday. I ordered chicken Caesar salad comes with grilled chicken fillet, crispy romaine lettuce, garlic, herbs. croutons, Caesar dressing and grana Padano cheese. My partner ordered Full English breakfast comes with eggs, beans, mushroom, hash brown, tomato, bacon and Cumberland sausage. Overall breakfast was good and waiter was very friendly too. I'm really going to miss the English breakfast when I'm back home.

We checked out from the hotel at 12pm and our organiser rented a seven passenger van which came and pick us up around 12.30pm. Journey from hotel to Heathrow airport (Terminal 4) took around an hour. Our flight back home was scheduled at 9.35pm (London time). We were at the airport 8 hours earlier than our departure time as our organiser accidentally saw the wrong departure time.

There's nothing much that we can shop here in Heathrow Airport Terminal 4. We just hang around at Costa Coffee house and had some tea break before we had our early dinner at this Italian restaurant named Carluccio's. We shared a plate of Spaghetti Carbonara comes with eggs, Grana Padano cheese, guanciale and black pepper. My partner enjoyed it very much. We ordered a slice of Tiramisu as well but taste wise not as good as the one that I had at Gio Ristorante in Manchester.

Our journey back to KLIA took around 13 hours 15 minutes and we reached KLIA around 5.45pm (Malaysia time). Our connecting flight to KKIA at 7.55pm has been cancelled and the earliest flight available was 8.55pm. We have no other option but to wait... Finally after 29 hours including waiting time at the airport we survived and reached home safely.

Overall the trip was fun and enjoyable. Even though it was a short trip, we had a really great time both in Manchester and London. Thanks to brother Stephen for organising this trip and we will definitely miss you Manchester and London...

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

-
Image
We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
