Image
First World Hotel is located in Genting Highlands, suitable for travelers on budget. This hotel is easily accessible to First World Plaza, Sky Avenue, Sky Casino, Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park and Genting International Convention Centre. It's so easy to check in and check out of the hotel. There's plenty of kiosks located at the hotel lobby. Just follow the instruction on the screen to get your room card. During check out time, just dropped your room card at the check out kiosk. We stayed in a very basic standard room comes with 2 single bed, small flat screen TV with limited channels, in room safe which is not working, hair dryer, wall mounted 2 in 1 shampoo & shower gel, disposable shower cap and working desk. There's no coffee or tea making facilities inside the hotel room but there's a hot and cold water dispenser located outside the corridor.

It's our last day here in Miri and we decided to have our brunch at WZT Cafe just 8 minutes walking distance (600m) from  Pullman Miri Waterfront . Due to the heat, we were so lazy to walk and ended up we drove there. We ordered a plate of chicken rice from George's special chicken rice stall and a plate of dry noodle. Chicken rice is good. The rice is soft and fluffy. Besides that, chicken is tender and juicy. I like the fact that they sprinkled some sour plum powder on top of the chicken. One plate of chicken is not enough for us and we ended up ordered another plate of chicken. Their chili sauce is good too. Dry noodle on the other hand looks dry but surprisingly it turned out to be good. The price is cheap too for a bowl of noodle. My partner ordered teh ice (ice tea with condensed milk) and it's nice. Not too sweet and the combination of milk and tea is just perfect. Overall, we enjoyed our brunch and will definitely come back if we're back in Miri. WZ...

We decided to have dim sum for brunch at Ming Garden Restaurant on our 2nd day in Miri. This restaurant is 7 minutes drive (4km) from  Pullman Miri Waterfront . The restaurant was quite empty when we walked in and only two tables were occupied. I ordered my favourite dim sum, b ean curd prawn roll with mayonnaise. I was quite disappointed because instead of prawn they stuffed too much meat in it. Besides that, we ordered p ork porridge with century egg, r ice flour roll with prawn and siew mai. Pork porridge wasn't flavourful enough but they were quite generous with the portion size. Overall, we were not impressed with our brunch. Ming Garden Restaurant Restaurant ambience Hot Chinese tea - RM 1 and teh ice - RM 3.60 Bean curd prawn roll with mayonnaise - RM 5.80 Pork porridge with century egg - RM 6.50 Rice flour roll with prawn - RM 4.80 Siew mai - RM 4.80 Address: Ming Garden Restaurant Lot 1088, Ground Floor, J...
