We bumped into a Japan Patisserie called Chateraise in Penang. It made us remember of our trip to Japan. Japan breads are delicious and nicely decorated or packed.
The Patisserie Shop
Most of the delicious breads on display is actually a fake but it looks really real. After you order, the waiter will take out the bread from a fridge.
We went to Zoo Taiping. It is the oldest zoo in Malaysia that covers 36 acres and exhibits 1,300 animals representing 180 species.
Tram Ride
For the night safari, we used the tram to do the night safari and there was a tour guide explaining the animal around the zoo. It took around 20mn ride to see most of the animals in the zoo.

The Animals
We saw different animals such as lion, tiger, elephant, birds, swan, crocodile and other animal species.
Ticket Price
Standard price:
Adult: RM10
Kids: RM5
Locations
There is ample car park at the zoo. Car park is RM3 per entry. Besides there are F&B like Marry Brown and souvenir shops at the zoo.
It was my first time did night safari and I found it really interesting even though we can see all the animal but at least we could see the animal at night. Some active some passive.

The receptionist is responsive and friendly. Really fast delivering our request such as extra towel and cleaning up the room.
They provide water, biscuits, coffee 3 in 1, toothpaste, shower, shampoo etc.
Problem we had with the unit is the TV is having lines on its monitor. The rain got into the main door and not really sound proof you can hear people talking at the walkway.
The floor is tiles floor so your feet get cold.
But as a whole those issues are small matters for us.
Activities
The Hermitage Boutique House is located to lake of Taiping. So there is cycling and boating activities at the lake.
Besides nearby you can visit Taiping Zoo and Botanic Garden.
It also has off road ATV nearby the zoo.
After tired of doing those activities, you can have a good swim at the Hermitage Boutique House swimming pool.
Surrounding Amenities
Plentiful of F&B nearby such as Mcd, KFC, Marry Brown, ZUS coffee, Nasi Kandar Beratur and CU.

Pertama kali saya makan burger ayam di gerai Roti John dan Burger di Restoran Mak Uda. Saya dapati ianya lagi sedap berbanding gerai-gerai burger yang lain saya pernah makan.
Selain itu harga berpatutan iaitu hanya RM4. Kalau tempat lain harga dalam RM4.50 hingga ke RM5 untuk satu burger ayam.
Anda juga boleh WhatsApp untuk order dan pick-up kemudian.
I was excited to go to vote for GE15. My polling station was at SK Stella Maris Tanjung Aru for P173 Putatan.
I thought I wanted to vote early in the morning even though my recommended time by SPR was around 1PM – 3PM. But I changed my mind because there were long queue in the morning. I voted around 12PM.
The voting process was a breeze and took only around 30 minutes. There were less youngster who voted at my polling station. The long queue was for age channel 3 which is my channel.
I guessed the channel was divided by age group.
