the one about badrul and johor bahru...




ahhhhh, i'm so tired... even now... slightly headache and badan sakit-sakit... sebab tu lah lambat sikit nak update about johor bahru... and even masa i kat johor pun, i was too busy... just managed to check the comment and reply some emails... and bila balik kl kena attend wedding lagih... all in all, i think i tidur about few hours jer... except last night lah... pukul 9.30 malam dan mengadap bantal... hahahahaa...

anyway, sampai kat airport senai jer dah lewat petang... and by the time i check-in to my hotel room, pukul 7.30 malam dah... freshen up a little bit terus keluar pergi dinner... they took me to danga bay... mak datuk!! ramainyer manusia!!! dia orang kata, this time of the year, people from singapore pun turun jb sebab cuti sekolah... lagipun dah hampir hujung minggu and dekat nak christmas, lagih lah ramai sebab dia orang turun shopping... so before dinner, i jalan-jalan sikit lah kat danga bay tuh... chewah, berangan nak naik keretapi mini dengan merry-go-round konon... hahahhhaa... tapi memandangkan badanku yang sungguh montel, i decided not to...

so we pergi makan kat one restaurant called 'lambaian seri bayu' or something... a bit dissapointed not because makanan dia tak sedap, but because it was not johorian food... thai food jer... tapi melantak sampai habis jugaklah... not so bad! on the way balik ke hotel tuh, jenguk-jenguk jugak restoran singgah selalu... the reason because it is one of our client and i always tulis radio commercials dia orang...

balik hotel, i bukak tv singapore... kalau tak silap i channel suria... banyak jugak good programmes (other than malaysian programmes lah) and one of them is 'gila makan' or something... best betul lah pengacara dia... kelakar... and at the end of the show, dia kena buat challenge like prepare the yong tau foo or something... hahahahaha... but one thing i have to get use to is the way they prenounce '0'... it's not 'kosong' but 'sifar'... at the same time, i've managed to catch the singapore idol - taufik - cinta agong nuraudha nih... hahahahaa... handsome budaknya... so, dapat dengar jugaklah sikit-sikit dia nyanyi...

since mutiara hotel provided breakfast buffet, i taknak lah membazirkan... still, i sedikit dissapointed sebab takda jugak makanan atau breakfast johor yang disediakan... the most yang ada was roti jala, but yang tuh pun rasanya sama kat mana-mana pun...

after my presentation, i was really looking forward for lunch... of course, i want to go and eat mee rebus hj. wahid kat plaza angsana yang leen cadangkan tuh... so, berangkatlah rombongan tiga buah kereta macam nak pergi meminang... hahahhaa... honestly, i'm not big on noodles, but yup, this is among the best mee rebus i've ever tasted... but you know me... mana cukup kan semangkuk mee... so dia orang decide nak bawak i pergi one restaurant to eat laksa johor... i tak tahu nama restaurant nih, but the laksa johor was soooooo yuummmmy... sedap giler! lepas tuh i nampak ada kelongsong daun pisang atas meja, so i tanya dia orang apa kat dalam nih... dia orang cakap mee siam... aik? dalam kelonsong daun pisang? mesti try lah kan... not bad! not bad at all!

lepas lunch, balik office kat jb, sambung balik kerja... lepas tuh about 5.30pm dia orang hantar balik hotel and akan jemput about 8pm for dinner... so, apa lagih, i pun pergilah merayau-rayau kat shopping complex sebelah hotel mutiara tuh... ramainyer orang mak datuk... tapi paling best, dapat beli dvd... murah siot!!! 8 ringgit jer compare dengan kl nih yang jual sampai 15 ringgit... at the same time, beli jack jack pillow from mcdonalds... hahahhaaa... rindunya kat xe'an...

about 8pm, i was ready to go out... dia orang nak bawak pergi makan seafood (yup, seafood lagih!) but i don't mind sebab i memang suka seafood... seriously, i tak tau nama tempat yang dia orang bawak nih, but the food is superlicious... ketam,udang, ikan, bermacam bentuk siput dan sebagainya... memang 'se eh' lah... dicampur dengan gelak ketawa dan sebagainya lagih lah kan... by the time i reached my hotel room, jam telah menunjukkan pukul 12 tengah malam... kenyang, happy dan sebagainya, i tidur dengan macam-macam mimpi indah...

i really want to come back to penang and jb... most probably i will celebrate my new year in penang... but the next time around to penang and jb, kena pergi dengan kawan-kawan... especially kawan-kawan yang tau tempat makan yang best-best... authentic penang and jb cuisines...
