1 day trip to Pulau Ketam

On sunday, me and family was having a trip to Pulau Ketam for seafood. We actually never been there before. So decided to take a trip to there and have a taste of seafood where hear alot of people saying that the seafood there is nice. While on the way to Klang, we saw this accident happen where the lorry from the opposite road crash and hit the center barrier and the prim mover was actually facing the opposite road on it's own which was the way we use up to Klang. What so scary was there is a Kancil that has collide with the prime mover. And there is bomba there to rescue. I wonder now Malaysia driver was so scary especially those who drive lorry and bus.

And when we almost reach Port Klang, I just found out a driver having visual impairment towards color. This time was not traffic light color which is Red, Yellow or Green but was white line which they have actually stop before the line and not after. Not sure is this what the instructor teach him during driving lesson.

Ok ok...finally after a traffic jam onthe accident that I have mention above, finally we arrive to the Jeti to Pulau Ketam. And we manage to get the boat which heading to Pualu Ketam. The cost of the boat per person was RM7 where it take about half hour ride. So in and out actually total RM14 per person and for me it was kind of expensive (you will know why I say this later). Here is the boat environment.

Once we arrive, there is nothing much. Just a street that has 2 - 3 restaurant which actually have seafood and other was like small shop that sell bags, slipper and etc. Since we have already arrive, we have a walk on the streets. And then we people making popiah skin. And my mom told us that when they was small they actually used to help me grandma to do this untill their hand was pain.

While walking we saw a chinese tokong and they was in the mid of preparing the "Ghost Festival". I not sure what was this tokong name was (I dunno how to read chinese)...but take a photo of the name.

After walking and everybody feel tired and hungry, we decided to stop at one of the restaurant and have our lunch. The reason we choose this restaurant is that there is many people eating inside. Here is some food we order...

Fried oyster and "lala" with egg. The taste was not good at all. For me is that I totally taste nothing. It cost RM30

I not sure what is this called...but it was actually like a bamboo with meat inside. For me NOT NICE...

Spicy and Sour crab...NOT NICE as well

Fried sotong. Beside the chili sauce have taste, the sotong totally tasteless. NOT NICE..

Normal vege...this was the best of all. Hey...wait a minute. I though our purpose to Pulau Ketam was having seafood, but why now like only the vege was the best and other was totally not nice??? Or maybe we have choosing the wrong restaurant????? Just waste of our time and money. This lunch was not cheap. It cost us RM120++ exclude the fried oyster and fried "lala". For us it was not worth it. Well....this was first time and last time for us to visit Pulau Ketam.

I guess no need to visit Pulau Ketam we can have more nice seafood than here. Just waste of time, energy and money.

Nando's @ Mines

On saturday, while going shopping with my firlfriend, we stop and have our dinner at Nando's where they have promotion set. It was long ago when the last time that I have nando's...I guess more than 1 year ago. The set is like normal quarter chicken with 2 side dish, a coke with lemon drink and 1 cream puff (for me it was just like a cup cake but with choc on top and ice cream inside). It would be nice if there is more ice cream inside. The price of this set was same as normal price where you order 1 quarter chicken and 1 drink separately, for this set it was just another cream puff extra. Overall quite satisfy with the meal.

GODIVA Choc

One of my IT manager from France came to visit us for 2 weeks I guess. And one of the choc that he has bought as a gift for all of us in the office was from GODIVA from KLCC. I know that this shop the choc they sell was expensive (for me) and the box of choc that he bought was cost RM200++. There is 4 different of choc which is Milk Choc, 50% Dark Choc, 72% Dark Choc, and 85% Dark Choc. Milk choc I did not have any because I can have it from Cadbury which I feel personally it was quite the same. Might have slightly different but I prefer dark choc.

I have that 72% dark choc and the taste was very good. And the next I have was 85% and the taste was "pahit"....uuuhhhh.....that was too much for me. So in future I guess I won't prefer taken 85% of dark choc. Or maybe it was only this brand choc taste like this. Anyway...if there is someone bought for me then I will not care if it was 85% or 100% dark choc. But I will try to avoid to eat such high percentage of choc XD...

Book Fair @ KLCC

That day after work been to KLCC where they have a book fair at convention centre. When we enter, they have some expertise there stand by and to check your temperature. Although it was tedious, but I do feel is good to have that since right now there is H1N1 and book fair there is plenty people to visit. We won't know who are the one that having H1N1 that has enter the hall.

To enter the hall there is entrance fees RM2 for each person. And you get this thing right after you pay.

The sad part is that I hope to buy something inside and the result was that I found nothing that I want. So I just treat it as a walk. Although without this walk I guess I will reach home more early. Hahaha....here is 2 photo of the hall environment that I have taken.

Break with Rootbeer float @ A&W

After a long day of work, decide to have a break at A&W. Order rootbeer float. Coooooool.....and refresh. Enjoy it.

Sundanese @ KLCC

At 7th of August 2009, me and colleague having our lunch at one of the restaurant at KLCC called Sundanese. I not sure and forget what type of food they are serving. I guess was Indonesian food.

Personally I think the taste of the food was not that nice to me. Or should say I don't know how to taste me so called "Indonesian" food. The one who pay was my e-Business manager from Netherlands (Hans Timmermans). When I start taking photo with my phone, Hans also take his iPhone and start taking photo with me. Hmm...he do like spicy food and also food with belacan. Not many mat saleh know how to eat those kind of food XD.... There is people actually asking me am I finish taking photo and they can actually start eat?? :p

Below was some of the food image taken before we start eating.

Keropok serve before our meal come. It can eat with sambal as well.

My drink Barli Ice. And this drink not cheap. I can't remember exactly the price of the drink but it actually cost more than RM5 for 1 cup of drink.

Soup of the day. Inside there is tomato, potato, chicken and some pepper. Quite spicy for me.

Fried taufu with mushroom, chicken and some other vege which I not sure what was that.

Nasi Kunyit

"Big Head Prawn". This is the most expensive dish and taste good among all the other dish. I actually had 2 of this prawn XD
