Brunei n food part 2

Late publish.



Assalam friends. Thanx to any1 who read my  blog. Sorry this time around im typing on
my mobile phone since i wont have enough time if i try to blog using the sponsored lappy..

This time around im babbling about food again! Sorry.. bear with me please..

Now that i live in brunei i can understand why most of them are big sized. Food are abundant. They are extremely cheap and in huge portion. In sarawak, big sized prawn cost around MYR35 per kilogram. But here u get it for BND7 per kilo? Ok its brunei dollar so change it to MYR? U do the math. 7x2.43=??? U still think its expensive?
Just look at my pictures.. i go everywhere hunting for the best place to eat. From stalls (not the gerai u can see in malaysia) to buffet restaurant. Name it. We tried at least 1 per week. That includes all international fast food brand as well!
In malaysia, 2 adults n 1 kiddy meal will cost around myr50. But in brunei, that cost around $20..  convert the money its the same price. But can u imagine if u r being paid in BND?
this place is a total food haven. For muslim like me i need to consider many rules (no pork, no alcohol, no glass used to serve alcohol, no utensils used to cook pork, etc.) In brunei u dont have to worry about that. If its a non-halal restaurant u will notice it before u enter the place. Its written clearly. Therefore my mission now is to try out chinese food without hesitation...

Another thing is delivery services. My perception was that only fast food provides this. But im shocked to learn that even normal restaurant provide the service as well. U dont have to drive your car to eat. Just call n they will come sending u ur order.. but my idea of delivery still applies for fast food only... i will definitely drive to eat at different places..

Pic blogging?

Dah lama la sangat tak post apa2. Bersawang dah blog. Sibuk dengan kerja, bila free tgk drama online, bila banyaaaak free buat bisnes photobook. Sekarang sibuk pulak dengan persediaan semester jun 2015 politeknik. Ada-ada je lah kerja untuk mempoyo n menyibukkan diri. Tu yg blog pun mcm rumah puaka tak de penghuni.. masuk keluar masuk keluar tak update apa2 pun... Jadi aku buat keputusan nak buat mcm micro-blogging.. tapi pakai gambar dan sedikit caption.. Ini dia gambar pertama. .............. Terkejut tadi tengok apa benda yg melekat kat cermin penumpang belah belakang kereta. Bila tgk dalam, rupanya anak aku punya kerja. Semalam dpt sticker, dia bantai lekat kat dlm kereta.. tergelak sorang bila teringat. Anak aku yg sorang je tu dah 4thn umurnya. Dah dihantar ke sekolah supaya dia ada kawan bermain.. maklumlah.. anak sorang.. belum ada rezeki anak lagi satu...

June 2008: Tanjong Balau Beach, Desaru, Kota Tinggi, Johor Bahru.

During my stay at JB, I managed to go to Tg Balau Beach, Desaru. From Drop Box If youre driving, than it's cheaper compared to renting a car or something. Its more expensive by taxi. I think it took 2 hours drive, plus LOST since I couldnt remember the road.. dont blame it on me?! the road look different from last time, 2005. From JB to Kota Tinggi takes 1 n 1/2 hours considering all the traffic jam on the way out of the city. Then from Kota Tinggi to Desaru approx. 40 minutes. The road might be tricky, so watch for the word Desaru, then Tg Balau on the signboard coz they will definitely help you. Not much to look at during the drive.. expect for hugeeee palm plantations.. Tg Balau is a masterpiece. Facing the South China Sea, clear water, blue sea, and not too many people like in Desaru beach. The one that im showing you in the pic is on the other side of the beach, you can ask for direction to go to the 'jetty' they call it. Or if they dont understand just tell them '...

confinement, baby blues, moving and so forth..

hi again.. what's up? i'm done with my confinement now almost finished my 90 days maternal leave (less than 30 days) my baby is 2 months 2 weeks, strong legs and neck, better skin reflection, recognize his mom very well now and turn his head when hearing his name called upon. busy planning my move to a new work place, and... head ache thinking about my husband's car (broke down on our way to Sibu last 2 weeks) that's quiet a lot to think about, don't u think so? so, i call it as a gift from god. I was just trying my luck by applying for a place at a new office. I was shocked knowing that my application was approved and it actually turned me blank for a while. There's so much to do! I don't want to hurt my head with so much things to think about yet, so I've decided to just go with the flow... Ramadhan is approaching, Happy Fasting yea! I'll be breastfeeding and fasting for the first time this year. Not sure if I'm capable. Soon will upda...
