Fish

Well sorry about my previous post , it should have been about food, but it became a post of anger. To make up for it , ill be posting twice the amount of food pictures!

As promised here are the lost and found makan places in malaysia . To be honest , singapore is nothing in terms of varieties of good and cheap food.

There is this area of malaysia within kota tingi that serves really nice food ,which they are famous for ba ku teh over there. Although the store that was famous for it wasnt open, there were others stores that sell ba ku teh and was still better than those in singapore.The soup was really tasty and its not pepperish like those in singapore.
There was Nasi lemak which was like for only S$1. In singapore , it costs at least $2 for a plate of it .

I've got too much pictures on the fishing trip, so ill post only the big fishes caught and the food we had there. Seriously, if you want to have fresh fish , theres no other place to eat in in the middle of the sea at a kelong. Of course if you are wondering if the fishes are caught at the kelong and then cooked , you are wrong. They are actually bought from fishermens who drop by and they sell the fishes really cheap! 10kg of black promfet fish for only 15 dollars !
(o just to let you all know , fishes near the kelong means near the toilet , in other words they aren't really clean which is probably why even the people living on the kelong prefer to buy fishes from fishermens)

On the way back to singapore, we drop by alot of places, one which is well known for their ku gua tang (bittergourd soup). Its not bitter as the name says , but its not sweet either. Savoury would be the taste of it.

If you want to get cheap shopping groceries, sentosa plaza is the place to go , from what i heard, alot of singaporean love to go there and shop their groceries, good massage and of course food!

But the best of all was the last dish i had , the yao cai ya(medicinal herb duck). It was marinated with the yao cai and was so tasty , that even the medicinal taste is still within the duck after chewing so many times. They were even asked by dian xiao er , a restaurant in singapore to be the advisor to them on how to cook their ducks.

Gotta thank the teo family for bringing me for the fishing trip cause i literaly didn't had to pay for anything. The next time ill definately treat them to scuba diving or some activities at the langkawi beaches.
