As I need some groceries, I head over to Cold Storage to get some essentials – this store really caters for expats, and there was one in 1-Utama that I used when staying in the hotel (where I found the Waitrose aisle!), but the one near here is huge – two floors with an amazing choice.
£200 later, I was stocked up with the essentials. Wine, slim-line tonic, frozen peas and curry puffs!
It’s funny the things you don’t really appreciate when in a different country: the second floor (where you couldn’t take your trolley) was for the “sinful” items (beers, wines and spirits, Japanese goods and pork), so you have to leave your convenient trolleys downstairs, whilst you fetch the sin from upstairs and carry it all down by hand.
A bit like a 'walk of shame' with the other shoppers looking and muttering 'sinners' under their breath.
