Kluang ... Kota Kinabalu ... Penang ... Working Trip

Ahhh... it must be my "lazy" virus working on me again. Finally feel like updating on my eating encounter during my working trip outstation. Driving all the way down south then flying over to another side of Malaysia and lastly back to the north of Peninsular. It sounds like a all around trip to me now.

Anyway let's start with Kluang:

(Top to Bottom, Left to Right)

1. My lunch cum afternoon tea break: Kopi 'O' with 2 bun (butter & kaya) - taste good,

2. Dinner: I had a claypot mee that is a little different and also a spread of other food

3. 3rd night dinner: In one of the more famous western food restaurant in Kluang (Bunny's)

One place that I wanted to go so so much is Kluang Coffee Station (original in the train station). I was so upset on the last day morning before I left for KL, as the shop was closed. Damn, missed the roti bakar, nasi lemak and the coffee.

Next I was at Kota Kinabalu:


(Top to Bottom, Left to Right)

1. Mc Donalds it is (very obvious) - not knowing what to eat, that's what I settle down for on my 1st day lunch

2. Bread, bread and bread - with the wet weather after work, I choosed to have bread for dinner

3. Simple and nice lunch on the Indian rice - RM7.00 with the lemon tea

4. 2nd day Lunch - Banana Leave rice: normal and nothing to shout about. Its expensive, RM16

Finally up North in Penang:

As everyone always said, you dont need to worry about being hungry in Penang. Look at the food I had there.

1. Economy Rice, near Kek Lok Si Temple - Lunch: I thought it was Asam Laksa and Chee Cheong Fun in that area. I was wrong when my colleague brought me here. The variety of dishes is unimaginable. I was told one of the entertainment there is to watch one of the boss in that shop calculating. His speed is faster than we press on a calculator... trust me, it is really fast

2. Simple chinese dishes for dinner: Everything for two person is only RM26.00. The dish is wonderful that includes fried 'Ochian', fried vege with roasted pork, fried fish and a bowl of soup. The oyster in the fried 'Ochian' is as big as my thumb. Cant hardly get that size else where especially in KL.

Finished off for the night with a Milo Halia. It was indeed good and nice. Feel warm too on the stomach after the cuppa.

3. 2nd & 3rd night dinner : Loh Mee, Fried Kuey Teow, Prawn Mee and also Pasembur. Well the food is common in KL, but its just nicer having those food in Penang. My fave of the 4 was the Loh Mee. It's so different from the normal ones I had.

Mmmmm...... next stop is Kota Bharu. Wondering whethere there's any nice food there....

Ciaoz the mao,
