We went for a short getaway to the lovely island of Batam.
I LOVE the hotel! Huge deluxe room with a toilet that I absolutely love cos it's so huge. Pacific Palace Hotel, I believe.
Just after heading up to the rooms to freshen up, we had to leave for dinner already. Seafood in a kelong - tons of fresh seafood with the likes of chilli mud crabs, steamed flower crabs, gong gong, scallops, deep fried prawns, steamed prawns and steamed fish.
Right after, we headed back to town and got us some delicious BBQ corn on the cob. Smothered with chilli and butter, it was a superb snack. Kinda like Calbee chips without the trans fat. Got us some rambutans at the streetstall too. And i saw a Lauren Ling that i cant seem to belive, she was like eating non stop.
And after that, headed off to town for more food - roti prata and chicken wings, and calamari as well as otah.Then, headed for fried catfish. No idea catfish tasted so nice. Also had a taste of their ayam soto. Ended off the night feasting with Martabak - kinda like the pancakes that they sell in Mr Bean, but think 100 times nicer.
I think it was a ploy to get us all fat. So Kenbro Wont be the only one overweight in our family heehee...... Hmmmmmm......
The next day started with what else, but more food. Had empeh empeh (dont really know how to spell it) which was superb - fish ball, fish skin and some other fish thingy with egg in it it goes great with some funny funny sauce. Also had the best yellow rice with chicken that I've ever tasted. Think super tender and juicy chicken meat. Plus, goreng pisang that's flattened. Yes, their goreng pisang's flat, not cylindrical.
A break from eating as we went shopping for what else but food. Well, and other groceries as well. Bought tons of things, including a box of Sedap Mie Mee Goreng. Tried some when we went on our trip to Hantu and am glad when we finally located an entire box of it.After all that shopping, headed to A&W for the much craved for curly fries and root beer float. Yummy... great end cos we headed for the ferry after that.
