Walk outside the Penuin Wet Market building itself,those that type of market sells fresh raw meats,fresh vegetables etc and you will see the Bai Long word in Chinese.You cant miss it if you are at the wet market building. Or if you drive,circle the wet market building and keep a look out for this (it may sometime be block by bigger cars in parking lots outside the wet market) : Please note Bai Long Wan Tan Mee opens in the morning and closes quite early at noon. So i advise you to reach before 12pm indo time. I am sure you also wont want to miss out the Wan Tan Mee near Meximo Pub and Bei Long at A2 Food court too,hehehe...other than just looking at Momo,Instar,Bai Long...hehehe... Enjoy!

Hehehe...whenever someone post hotel pics,i would really like to see something not shown from the hotel's website. Sorry,thats just my habit,hehehe.. (i know,i know...i am greedy again...hehehe) Taking photos in Hotel room reminds me of my time in Formosa,my personal in-room "Safe Deposit Box",and the glass of water from the Gideon Hotel room tap that look sperm-like,hehehe... I respect your gentlemanly style,displaying a more humanly approach towards your in-room girl friend/s and not exploiting them. Chancing upon your older online FRs which was archive 4 to 5 years ago in ISG and reading from there on ,i believe you think you pay Price B.

In Asia, i believe most Sillyporean do pay more than most of their other Asian counterpart.There are already plenty of evidence in most of the threads in this International section that says so (even in this Batam thread). But what surprise me was you mentioned that Koreans paid most or perhaps as much as the Japanese cos in the local (sillypore) night scene like KTVs ,Night Clubs etc,the Koreans as i was told were one of the stingiest. Why did Malaysians and the Pinoys (I believe Chinese Indonesians too) generally pay lesser is something worth looking into (for me). Quote:
Reason/s why the pinoys and Malaysians are paying lesser? Perhaps it could be due to them having a closer proximity on their community and culture ;and it comes with experience as well. Which could also mean they are able to gain faster and better experience in those places you mentioned as compare to other countries. Eg,a Malaysian of any race travelling to Batam are likely to gain more experience (and/or learn more) as compare to a Sillyporean Chinese,not just becos they share the nearly same spoken and written language. Quote:
Eg,if i plan to go to Indo Rasa Massage in my next Batam trip which i havent been to in my last,i will do some research on that place,type the necessary info i found down into this thread and bookmarked it so i can easily reference back when i start planning my itinerary. And during the physical trip,i can simply cross reference all this info i found since i have already bookmarked them into one single post of my itinerary. I guess.thats just part of my travelling habit you see...and not becos i know Batam very well,hehehe...i cant even speak Malay or Bahasa Indo. Like i always say in this thread,when it comes to talking i may sound like i know-it-all,hehehe...but when it comes to actually doing the real thing,i often have the heart but minus some strength...lol. Yea,as for Jakarta,i have been reading a lot about it from other sites like Jakarta 100 bars,the Jakarta Info Thread in this forum etc. I am also following some parts of the HCM thread and the Balai thread too. I am 100% agreeable that Jakarta definitely has much much more to offer as compare to Batam. The thing is,what i am looking for in Batam ,Jakarta will have the similar (or if not better and more),but i still prefer things simple.Having said all these, i will still head to Jakarta one day,but likely not before i head to HCM 1st,hehehe.... Side notes : One of the best thing about the Batam group trips is i get to know many REAL LIFE good people, with nearly everyone sharing their respective mongering experience not just on Batam alone but in other parts of the globe and it happens that 2 trips ago,i got to know a good bro whom i believe has considerable experience on HCM and hearing him talk about his HCM trips really makes me drool....lol. Sorry for the long-winded reply,hehehe....

Sorry,just pulling your leg here. Quote:
My itinerary will come with date of my travel so that those bros who previously PMed me and was ask to PM me again after my itinerary are out can PM me again and upon my reply to them,they will also have some time allowance to apply leaves to be away from their work. I will need to clear more space for my inbox now to accommodate the incoming PMs (if not it keeps showing me i left 91% in my inbox) and shall start writing out my itinerary in the coming weekend. Cheers! PS : Most bros who can fit into my trip's dates, above 18+ of age should have no problem joining me unless my slots are full ,their age gap is really too far from other bros joining in (eg.bro age 18 vs bro age 60) or they cannot agree to my trip's terms and conditions.

Re: Batam Info Thread
INSTAR Mie Pangsit
============== Operating Hours : 6am - 3pm, 7 days a week except every 28th of the month Conclusion : As John and others mentioned - Value for money! Go for it. Hearty meal (be it breakfast or lunch). His chilli-belachan version can be greasy for some. So tell him - less oily. (That's what he said!) Went to the stall this morning. Guess I had that focused look on my face (like on a mission) and when I walked past the stall (to go into the coffeeshop) boss saw me and immediately asked me what I like, and I didn't even express I wanted to order from him yet. LOL. Very jovial guy, makes his noodles and sings at the same time (Boss in the photo) Ordered mee-gia for myself, and mee-pok for my partner. He insisted to try the chilli (spicy) version instead of non-chilli. OK. RP 21K per serving In terms of flavor, MOMO and INSTAR can't be compared - totally different. MOMO's Medan chinese version (no ketchup/chili in the noodles), whilst INSTAR's the indigenous singapore-chinese version (relies on the custom ketchup sauce or chilli-belachan already in the noodle-mix for the flavor). So cannot compare. Personally I am not a fan of ketchup/chilli sauce already in the noodle, because I won't be able to taste what's in the noodles due to over-powering flavors brought on by the ketchup and even more so by the chili(sambal belachan). The mee-gia is "Q", but the mee-pok unfortunately is not - it was soft. Either they're of different makes, or, his mee-gia is a best-seller by a big margin as he instinctively knows when to stop cooking the mee-gia to hit that "Q"-spot. Hand-to-God, MOMO's noodles are definitely more "Q" and chompy, and not sticky/clumpy when cold(er). But for RP21K with 3x fishball, 2x wanton, 1x meatball, mushroom slice, minced meat, char-siew, beansprouts, fish cake slices = I'm not complaining! But there's one thing though - his chili-sambal contributed too much oil into the noodle - making us feel greasy inside (油膩). We had to order teh-O-gao to kill off that greasy feeling. It was a little sad for us to be honest. Otherwise it would have a complete ending. Surprising thing was right after the meal, the boss came over to our table (we didn't initiate any communication) and asked us where we're from - and after which I told him about the greasiness (油膩) and that if not for the beansprouts in the noddles, we may not be able to finish our meal. He said "oh.. mmm ok next time, when u come - I will add less oil ". (That said, yet I know - from the noodle's texture - if he does add less oil - the noodles will surely stick/clump together.) Side-note : The coffeeshop's kopi-susu is, (I know I will sound very condescending), utterly shitty. The milk/carnation milk is poor quality and the coffee is over-bearingly strong. To lactose-intolerant people : be warned - you will sure lao-sai Next stop - Bai Long Noodles (Thanks Nono for your directions!!) Enjoy! Last edited by micmac888; 10-07-2015 at 09:39 PM. |

Re: Batam Info Thread
I like Otak. Brings back childhood memories. But today's Otak in SG is nothing like the 70-80s. So we decided to go to "one of the best" Otak in Batam. She mentioned "Bolok Ikan". Was intrigued and after I had it - I had to share it here.
Bolok (for short) is steamed version of the grilled Otak. I ordered both grilled and steam versions to be able to make comparison and unbias judgement. Bolok still tastes like Otak but alot less oily, and is firmer, than the grilled one. This is due to steaming it - as the meat is cooked in steam, the oil naturally oozes out from the meat and drips-off-from/absorbed-by the leave-wraps. Bolok RP6K/pc Where we had the Bolok and Otak We had the Bolok and Otak together with the very traditional authentic no-frills Indo Nasi Lemak (RP7K) MANTAP! For sharing. ENJOY! |
