Escape to A&W

Hello travel bunnies all!
Ok so this is the second posting here, so we can't say we'll be brooking the trend as there isn't one actually to speak of just yet. But this is a travel blog. And travel is the search of adventure. So what of the A&W around the corner then, accessible by car, where everyone speaks the language, and the worst thing that could happen if you were to lose all of your belongings making such sojourn would be having to bother yor mum/dad/girl/boyfriend to come pick you up?

No. A&W is closing, so this itself is the adventure. We're chasing nostalgia on a Saturday night. Nostalgia in the form of root beer floats and onion rings (if the word "ringo" comes to mind, as the staff call it, then you can identify). Unfortunately, the half of petaling jaya which hasn't gone off to brave the Raya traffic is here with us chasing nostalgia too, resulting in a human line of simultaneous hope and despair. Not unlike war rationing and ration cards I would imagine, less the screams of V2 rockets overhead and a commissar shouting into your face.

Does it matter that the quality of the food has dropped tremendously over the years, or that the price seems to be inversely related to said food? Not really. So here we are anyway chasing a dream :)
