Looking for an escape just as the year has started? LOL..

We went to check out the newest mall in Malacca – The Shore Shopping Gallery, that has opened on 01 Dec 2014. Was a little disappointed as many of the food places are not ready and other than the anchor tenant Tangs and a few specialty retail outlets, the place would be classified as “in …
