New Year's Eve Fireworks Viewing

Looking for less crowded spots to watch the fireworks on New Year's Eve. Rooftop bars are booked. Any restaurant or ground-level recommendations?

Try checking out KLCC Park. It's usually pretty packed, but you might find a less congested spot if you arrive early enough and scout around. The view isn't as close-up as a rooftop bar, but you'll still get a good glimpse of the fireworks over the Petronas Towers. Alternatively, some of the higher floors of hotels further away from the main celebration areas might offer decent views from their restaurants without the rooftop bar crowds.

Good luck finding the "secret" workshop. My bet is your uncle's playing it up a bit. Alustil's pretty well-known, so a hidden workshop seems unlikely. Their main workshop is probably somewhere easily accessible in Kuala Lumpur. Just look them up online; their address should be there. As for haggling... be polite, show genuine interest in their work, and don't be afraid to offer a lower price, but be reasonable. Start lower than you're willing to pay, but don't insult them. Good luck with your trip!
