Senayan Place somehow sounds awkward. If it were my choice, I'd name it Senayan Palace.. sounds so much cooler :p

anywho.. I went there sunday afternoon with my girlfriend. Our main objective was to see the Tiara Lestari from Sensual to Elegance show and to checkout the new place. The mall/plaza (wats d difference between mall n plaza btw?) was very high-class. The architecture was pretty cool. The tenants were also high-class. High-class boutiques, restaurants, and bakeries.

Btw, the Tiara Lestari show was pretty weak. The pictures were printed on poster paper and glued to a frame. Honestly.. I have posters with better frame jobs than some of the pictures there. Im not complaining about the pictures. The pictures were ok.. It was the presentation that was weak. I think the word "crude" best defines it. I bet everything was done at the last minute (so indonesian..).. Tiara was also not as charming as i'd imagine her to be.. She wore a green kebaya. About her hair.. Either she didnt have a good hairday or she just tried out a new salon coz her hair wasnt as fluffy as it was when she was on Kick Andy-MetroTV. Ok enuf bout Tiara.. my comment is that it is an ok exhibition. the photos were good, but the presentation was standard. so dont expect somethin out of the ordinary bout the exhibition. They have 5 more days to make it much more presentable :)

Back to SP... the place was nice.. a bit small, but nice.. the overpriced clothing makes visiting the place ideal for window shopping only.. The best place (out of the few shops opened) was the Bali Deli. The place was kewl.. The sandwiches a bit overpriced but still reasonable n the dining tables are comfy.. but just as i was in awe about the Bali Deli, i was dissapointed that it was yet again another expat-owned place "borrowing" a local name. The Bali Deli supermarket was awesome though.. It had some very premium grocery items. The pasta section is complete, the fruits are organic. The price is quite competitive to those of other supermarkets such as Indofood, Hero. The only thing missing is the wine collection, plus I couldnt find any chip-dip! :( but other than that, other premium items such as meats, chocolate, salad dressing, italian pizza/spaghetti sauce, and other premium sauces are complete..

The Senayan Place is a nice place (see how the name is awkward?:p) and I cant wait to take a peek again when all the stores are open.

btw i think i was the first guy to take a dump in one of the toilets hihihi...
