Terengganu - Paka - Kemaman - Kuantan




This is unforgettable "New Year Trip" to Terengganu, Paka. Paka is a small fisherman village instead my colleague's hometown.

We have 6 of us driving to Terengganu. Our first meal in Terengganu is Nasi Minyak, Nasi Dagang and Kopi O (my favourites black coffee) , Teh Ais (Ice tea). Not forget about the boiled eggs.....WE FINISHED ALL 15 EGGS that we ordered. According to the waiter, the eggs were freshly collected from the farm (but the size of egg is slightly smaller than the regulary we ate.)
When I step into the village, I can strongly smell the "dried fish". If you like to eat it you will say "what a aroma is"....if you are not better you spray your lovely fragrance first.
The village makes me feel calm, peaceful...... I love kampung feel. Out of town, isolated from crowded, traffic jammed.........

The Little Nyonya


The Little Nyonya is Singapore Drama, which a touching story about a girl borned in Malacca and storyline is rolling between peranakan family untill to the fourth generation.


After this drama to the air, impact to public know more about baba nyonya. Sudden, a lots of Nyonya restaurant flow in the Malacca street and city.


Nyonya food is one of the historical attractive to tourist and visitors all over the country to come to Malacca.

Combination of Chinese and Malay foods is artificial cooking in Nyonya food, which uses generous amount of spices, coconut milk and sambal belacan to enhance the taste of food.

We can choose from Restoran Bibik Neo located at Jalan Merdeka, Restoran Nyonya Makko in Jalan Melaka Raya. The Peranakan Delight located at Jalan Laksamana, opposite Christ Church is also another choice for Nyonya restaurants in Melaka.
We can actually walk to survey our own along the Jonker street as well to get a best place for Nyonya food, one of the famous restaurant is "Nancy's Kitchen".

Day Trip to Port Dickson

I have been there when I was in primary school. The last time I visited to Port Dickson was I finished my Diploma in Secretary.

I can't refresh my memory, the beach is clean but not the water......(every morning there was cleaner pick up all rubbish on the beach by his excavator!!)

Nevertheless, is a good place for relax, family gathering.

The most wonderful was the dinner, the sea food is really fresh and delicious.
It was a difficult to find the place if you do not direct by the local people there. The restaurant located near Lukut and deep inside to a small village.
Which most of the residence are fisherman.

Day Trip to Malacca


After we check out from Bayu Beach Resort, Port Dickson, we thinking of what going to have for our lunch today. A fast flash over my mind.....Malacca Nyonya food, one of my favourities...


Me and my family no doubt drive directly to the South. About 2 hours journey, we reached there safely.


We direct head to Jonker Street and looks for Nancy's Kitchen, a tranditional and originaly authentic nyonya food found in Malacca which just opposite of "Geography Cafe" & next to "Eleven Portuguese Food Restaurant".
Unfortunely, the restaurant was full house, then we switch to the portuguese food.
I was dissapointed of the food which under expected........nothing special!!
But there were good things is, I found nyonya kuih muih 100% made by "bibik".......just right along the Jonker Street. We pack a lot of difference variety and sit down in a 50's old chinese coffee house with their specialties, Ice kacang, pineapple juice and barley ice.

Broga Hill, Semenyih


It is one of the best spot for day trip outing!
Broga hills is a preferable place for hiker, young, old, with dudes or family......
Friends told that is a trend now to Broga Hills....as its famous-Sunrise......
Instead, most of the photographer likes this place.....a best shot to be taken there....nice scenery view.

Bukit Tabur

Bukit Tabur one of the hill i intend to challege long time ago, as I advise from experienced hiker you must get ready your self before start your first step to do so.

In fact, the rugged terrain makes us need a experienced trekker to bring us to the top!

In paper, stated there was incident happened, a 51-year-old man slipped and tumbled down some 30m. Thanks to bushes that cushioned his fall, he got away with just light injuries. In March, two medical specialists, both experienced trekkers, plunged to their death from about 200m high.

BE PREPARED BEFORE WE GO!!
