Shopping Centres

Capital Square or better known as CapSquare houses one of the latest shopping centre in the heart of Kuala Lumpur amidst its office buildings (such as Menara Multi-Purpose where Alliance Bank has its head office) and residences. It is situated next to Wilayah Complex and is within walking distance to the Dang Wangi LRT station where it costs only RM1.30 to get to Suria KLCC for another round of shopping. When hunger strikes, just pop over to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel or walk a short distance to Hotel Nikko for a meal. For financial needs, Menara Citibank is just next to Hotel Nikko. Back to CapSquare, coffee lovers can enjoy a cup of coffee at Starbucks or Coffee Bean and book lovers can discover newly published book like A Crime So Monstrous by E. Benjamin Skinner or oldies like Teach Your Child How to Think by Edward de Bono at Times. At this point in time, it is not another One Utama yet. In time, will Kluang Station with its Chicken Chop and Nasi Lemak Mutton Curry be found here? What it is not likely to have are restaurants that serve dishes like those from Restaurant Kam Heong (near Menara MPPJ) - braised duck TeoChew style and braised pork knuckle. Also it does not have a games specialty shop that sells PS3 games like Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2. And don't expect it to function like a local The Store.
