Summer Break 2009...(9)

Westfield Centre, London

Salaam,
July 1st...Our second day in London, was basically spent exploring the new and massive shopping mall in London...Westfield Shopping Centre at Shepherd's Bush. Its simply awesome and stunning. Went there for the very first time with the family, it was really an entirely new experience and something different from the usually crowded Oxford Street and other similarly conventional shopping areas that we've visited in the city.
The atmosphere is great...calm and relaxed, the building itself is of modern concept. There food court is pretty impressive and we spent quite a while enjoying our sushi lunch there. As far as the shops are concerned, everything you need you'll find it there. No wonder it is described as Europe's largest urban shopping, covering 43 acres, with 265 shops and 40 places to eat and two big supermarkets, among other facilities. Its a pity that we could not capture the beautifully designed interior of the complex with our SLR, for security reason. Shopping aside, there was indeed a great feeling of space around the centre which also makes it very light, airy and easy to get around. Incredible place, definitely worth a visit and a day out...
The evening was merely spent rendezvous-ing at Delima Malaysian restaurant, in the heart of London's Edgware Road and Paddington. Dinner was at the kind invitation of old and closest friends of us and their families, reminiscing our good old times of our high school days together...
Wassalam.
