In-N-Out Pop Up Store in Malaysia

In-N-Out the famous burger outlet in LA was here in Malaysia. It was only for 1 day.
The special event was host by Stranger at 47.

I have never been to Amurrica but 2pm and got7 keep on eating In-N-Out that makes me curious.
Plus for Malaysia, they are using halal patty. ( I won't get that even if I fly to America)

It was stated the operation hour is 11am so I went there at 10.30am lol I thought I have the higher chance. People are still at work or school. No, the queue is already long. haha so many people with flexy time, college student and retiree. Even foreigner is in the q ( bet they must missing the food).
Some even rudely "why they are here? they don't even know what is In-N-Out? Urm hello? But I think they just said that because of they already behind the Q.

The management is quite organized as they handed out tag. By 11.15am, they announced that it was already sold out. The staff also advise that they might have extra burgers but it will be our own risk. I just only 10 pax away with people with a tag so I risk my time and energy.

My only regret is I don't bring my q list lol . Eq stool and usb fan. It was hot and I have to stand all the way for a burger.

The In-N-Out staff come and chat with us.

Finally, at 2pm I was at the door and they still have burger left. Phew...they put the banner and the local staff are wearing In-N-Out work cloth too.

I ordered Animal style Cheeseburger.

You can see my number is 233 and the receipt address is in CA at the bottom. ( they still insert Kuala Lumpur under the sequence number)

It is delicious! the patty is juicy with a lot of lettuce. They serve it with chips tho, not fries ( if to compare with Jackson Instagram)

Sorry, you can't request to be one of the franchisees as it is family owned.

So I have tasted New York's Halal Guys and Shake at Shake Shack in Korea. The only halal Shake Shack is in Turkey. ( well maybe in the future I will go to Turkey) but I never imagined that I will try In-N-Out in my country. I am interested to visit Canada but I think I should go to America too if I go to Canada...well someday maybe.

Wanna One Fan Meeting in Malaysia

Highlights :

Wanna One arrived in Malaysia on Monday after their Macau FM. They took a low-cost airline to Malaysia. Their fan meeting is on Friday. Many speculated that they will have special project or shooting but Nah they just rest until the day of fan meeting. Daniel never got out from the room. (Ong, 2018)
The tickets were sold out during launch day, but some rock zone seat magically reopen and they even sell it via counter on the day of fan meeting.
They are too many people in the rock zone which cause some fan fainted and the FM was stopped for 1 hours + to calm the audience. This is right after opening song and during the introduction of members.
I was not in rock zone and we can see how pack rock zone is from upstairs. Organizer should have estimated the number of audiences plus they already sold out why they still selling the rock zone ticket? The bad layout of the stage limit the rock zone audience view. The main reason everyone keeps on going to the centre... who paid rm500 to watch the screen? They should sell the ticket with a limited view at a cheaper price.In the end, everyone is seated on the floor, well they should have made a seating zone then. I hope they are reflecting.
Due to this, the game session was cut short but thankfully they don't cut the performance or any song. Thank god we still have Jihoon doing Jeojang.
Malaysia Wannables celebrated Daehwi birthday and sang happy birthday in English and Hangugo.

this is the summary of games and performance :

Stadium Negara is reachable via LRT Hang Tuah, Monorel Merdeka and MRT Merdeka. All stations are walkable but the nearest one is MRT Merdeka Exit B.
Foreigner, please don't sell anything at the venue as you come as a tourist visitor and only people with a license can open up a stall. I think a giveaway is ok but money transaction is not allowed.
Untuk Muslim boleh juga menunaikan solat Maghrib di dalam surau stesen MRT selain surau Stadium. Tetapi masih perlu sentuk tiket touch n go ( caj Rm0.50) .
