If you wonder what are the things to do in MyTOWN Shopping Centre / MyTown Shopping Mall, below are some of my figured reason/idea:
As a person who usually work from home, grocery shopping has become one of my favourite things to do as I got more time to explore the new stuff and food available on the market. I don't cook much but visiting awesome groceries place like this makes me want to practice more on my cooking skill.
Parkson is one of the anchor retailers in MYTOWN Shopping Centre. It has 3 story so you can get your brand new outfits and some lifestyle items that you need. There will be exclusive promotion on your favourite brand from time to time so do check out the stores especially during this Raya season. Will let you know if I found something unique or interesting in there.
There's this area with huge toy claw machine that challenge your clawing skills. There are a few beautiful corners inside the mall too. Check out the photo below:
There are total four different color parking zone within the same floor therefore do remember your parking location. The parking rate for MyTOWN Skopping Centre as below:
There are even Despicable Me and Minions standee around the shopping mall for your photography and instagram photo of the day. Here's a short video I did for Despicable Me 3: Minions Meet & Greet event.
I saw there's a different Original Cake outlet has been opened at MyTOWN Shopping Mall, you don't need to queue to try out their Original Cake at YL Old Taste Cake House =)
1. IKEA Cheras - Home Furnishing All-In-One Stop
If you are looking for house furniture ranging from home living to kitchen. This double-storey IKEA outlet will able to provide you ideas and things that can make your house looks comfortable and pretty at the same time. IKEA Cheras is linked with MyTOWN Shopping Centre hence you have more dining choices other than just IKEA's restaurant itself. Not only that, you can shop for your new outfit for Hari Raya, Christmas from the nearest outlets in the mall.
Good thing about IKEA Cheras? It open half an hour earlier than the shopping mall so you can have your breakfast at IKEA Restaurant then enjoy your time getting your favourite stuff for your new house.

5. Village Grocer - Your One Stop for Shopping Fresh Groceries
MyTOWN is a shopping mall that you can do almost everything in one place. Including your weekly groceries shopping. I love their fruits and vegetable corner as they look so beautiful and abundant on the shelf. Just look at the photos below and let me know if it makes you feel happy when shopping for groceries.
Village Grocer was restocking the fruits during my visit. Avocado Fruits selling at RM2.99/pc, does it consider cheap? Oh ya, if you are berries lover like me, you would love the fresh and huge Blueberries that can be found at Village Grocer @ MyTOWN Shopping Centre.

Oh ya, if you are a person who love healthy eating and easily get hungry at night. I recommend you guys to try out Weet-Bix. Part of my quick breakfast and supper menu so I get enough healthy carbs to east body fat loss and cure hunger at the same time. Price ranging from RM12 to RM16 depends on size and flavors. Let me know if you are a fans of Weet-Bix too!
6. BEST Denki Japanese Electronics Retailer @ MyTOWN Shopping Centre
Right next to Village Grocer, BEST Denki is the Electronics Retailer offering electronic goods for your home & daily needs. It is located right at the Basement 1 floor hence you can easily transfer your goods to your car if you are parking at the basement floor.

7. Celebrity Fitness Gym @ MyTown Shopping Centre
A shopping mall won't be complete without a fitness gym inside. So for you who love staying healthy and eat healthy. Now you have one more place to train and become fitter in time so you can take thousands of selfie right after a workout. Remember to document your fitness journey because that's what motivate you to go strong in this staying healthy journey.
Other than Celebrity Fitness, there is VITO Art of Fitness Concept Store where you can get your fitness equipment so you can gym or exercise at home too. I personally think that dumbbells are the most simple yet helpful tool if you do workout at home.

9. Plenty of Seats Around the Mall - Toy Claw Vending Machine
Walking in a huge shopping mall is sometimes exhausting hence there should be public bench or seats for the public to have a rest while the young one enjoying their shopping. Those chairs are men's best friend specially when they ladies want to shop for new shoes or dress haha. MyTOWN Shopping Centre has resting areas with different theme and I kinda like it.
There's this area with huge toy claw machine that challenge your clawing skills. There are a few beautiful corners inside the mall too. Check out the photo below:

10. Plenty of Security Guards Around the Shopping Mall Compounds
During my visit, I noticed that security guards are everywhere around and inside the mall. Kinda makes me feel safe with their existence and hopefully they are helpful when we need their help too (experience difficulty in converse with security guards in The Starling Mall the other day).
11. Plenty of Parking Space Inside the Building with Reasonable Rates
There are 6,500 ample of parking space inside MyTOWN Shopping Mall itself. If you are there for groceries shopping, bark at their basement so you have easier access. Other than that, they have special parking space for family, single ladies and disabled which located near the lifts.
I do recommend you guys to take a photo of your parking location as they have quite a number of escalators that leads to parking area. Remember the pole color and floor number. If you need a quiet place to pray, the Surau/Musolla is located on Level 5.
There are total four different color parking zone within the same floor therefore do remember your parking location. The parking rate for MyTOWN Skopping Centre as below:
