Buy coke Pangkor Island
A few weeks earlier, a kind neighbor has undertaken the task to organize a trip to Perak, Malaysia and had invited some of us neighbors to come along. The big day finally arrived after much anticipation. We woke up in the wee hours of the morning to board a chartered coach which brought us across the causeway. Everyone spent much of the journey catching up on much deprived sleep until we arrived for breakfast at Batu Gajah. Mum's breakfast Does anyone know what this palm-sized packet is called? It is wrapped like Nasi Lemak but the content is just rice with shrimps and gravy and not the usual ikan bilis, egg and peanuts. To be honest, the taste of the rice with the sauce is quite nice actually. The Wanton Mee is satisfactory except for the disappointing Char Siew. My ideal Char Siew should be caramelized on the outside with bits of fat on the inside. This Char Siew is too dry for my palate. Tried my first Kolo Mee but I do not like the instant mee styled noodles. Same problem with the Char Siew here. There are several natural-occurring rock formations inside the cave that resembled dragons, toads, elephants and even a claw and a fist. I guess when you are stuck in a cave for too long, you become imaginative. Noticed the ceiling? It was blackened by a decade of incense offerings from the devotees. The temple wiped away a portion of the blackened parts to reveal a bagua! This ladybug reminds me of my primary school days spent catching ladybugs in the school field before morning assembly. We boarded the coach and was barely settled when we reached our next destination - Gunung Lang which is just a stone's throw away from Loong Thow Nam Temple. You could pay for a RM3 half price for senior citizens boat ride to the park opposite where a beautifully landscaped garden and mini zoo awaits. We did not cross over to the other side as it was not included in the itinerary. We just took some photos here before heading to Ipoh to check into our hotel. Kinta Riverfront Hotel is a relatively new one-year-old hotel. Guests had to scan their card keys for the lift to go up to our level. My only complaint is with a young-looking frontdesk staff who did not maintain eye contact with me when I inquired about the wifi. He had his head down at his paperwork the whole time. I feel he is being rude and disrespectful. Room Scan your card key to enter the room. If the door is left unlocked, it will, in Mum's own words, 'cry' which is actually the security function. Beds are comfy but the pillows are extremely flat Since we are only staying for one night, I did not bother asking for one more pillow. The extra pillow in the cupboard was given to Mum while I folded mine in half. TV reception for room is bad and all channels were in black and white. The bathroom could get pretty cold with the air con directly above the W. The showerhead We woke up for breakfast at 7am on the fourth floor. The taste is ok except that the egg and rice were cold taken out from fridge and not properly reheated. After breakfast, it was time to check out of the hotel and head for Pangkor Island! Do take note that the ferry will be making two stops. You do not want to disembark at the wrong one. The first thing we did after disembarking is to go for a round-the-island tour. Soon after alighting from the van, I tripped over a porthole in the road. The camera had a bad fall so there was no pictures of the fort. My left ankle had a slight sprain while my right knee and knuckle had lacerations but my ego suffered the most as it was witnessed by so many people around yet no one came to help me up. I am disheartened by the callous attitude of men Next up, to Fu Ling Kong Temple! It is said that there is a drum made of cow skin that apparently still grows hair but I did not managed to see. There is also a mini Great Wall that is built along the slopes of the temple which involves a bit of stairs climbing but due to my earlier sprain, I decided to just stay around the front of the temple where the stalls selling knick-knacks are. That proved to be a brilliant idea because while the others are visiting the temple, Mum and I had all the time we need to finish this bowl of Ice Kachang. I am not entirely sure if it was due to the scorching weather but I find this Ice Kachang exceptionally refreshing and delicious! We bought many bags of ikan bilis, some local produce and tidbits for my siblings. You can see Donald in the photo below right in the middle near the steps. We have only one day in Pangkor and will be returning to Ipoh the next day. We wasted no time in making our way to Pasir Bogak Beach which is about 2 - 3 minutes walk from the resort. We went island hopping and visited some strange rock formations that looked like an apple, crocodile's head, etc and even passed by Pangkor Laut Resort a neighboring island where Malaysian International star Angelica Lee held her marriage. The speedboat brought us to a designated location where we snorkeled. I was quite sad when we had to leave as I still have not had enough fun yet. There is not much photos here as we were in the water. I guess it is time to invest in a underwater camera! Is Nasi Lemak a national dish of Malaysia? Back at Lumut, we shopped at the nearby shops. I find the Sak Kei Ma a little bland but we still bought a few packs nonetheless. We were next brought to this shop selling soya bean milk and soya bean curd otherwise also known as 'tau fu fah' in Malaysia. The long queue in front of the shop is testament to its brisk business. Although named 'Funny Mountain', the atmosphere inside the shop is anything but relaxed. The never-ending queue means the staff can hardly take a breather! Apparently, their 'tau fu fah' is said to be one of the best in Malaysia. They are so popular that they even have a devoted 'drive-thru' service for vehicles! A staff will take your order then bring them to you where you can eat your 'tau fu fah' in your car and someone will come to collect the bowls when you are done. I did not have the 'tau fu fah' but opted for the soya bean milk instead. According to my parents, the 'tau fu fah' is smooth and rich but it is quite a small bowl which can be finished in just 'two mouthfuls'. The cool, refreshing soya bean milk provided some temporary respite from Ipoh's harsh weather! It is smooth and fragrant with the sweetness just right. I would recommend Funny Mountain to anyone who visits Ipoh! We were brought to yet another built-in-the-cave temple. This temple contained several folklore statues which bear some uncanny resemblance to our very own Haw Par Villa. This Salted Chicken was highly recommended by the tour guide hence, we ordered one to try out. Throw all dining etiquette out of the windows when having this salted chicken. The chicken, which is the size of a spring chicken is best enjoyed with your bare hands! Just pull and tear off the flesh to eat. Not very appetizing looking, I know because the wax paper sticks to the skin. The chicken is first marinated with pepper, salt and angelica dong guai then wrapped in wax paper and baked for an hour while buried under heaps of coarse salt. I love how flavorful the chicken tastes and even the normally tough and tasteless chicken breasts tastes tender and succulent. These chickens fly off the shelves real fast as customers buy them by the boxes. We had to call and order in advance to 'chope' our chickens. After returning from Pangkor, we checked back into Kinta Riverfront Hotel. This time, we are at Room The power socket near the TV is spoilt while the water pressure in the shower is wonky. I realized that in both room and , there are similar strange stains at the bathroom entrance that looked like wax. A coincidence or some mark left behind after performing certain rituals? The number of people waiting to get a table is sheer madness! Luckily we had reserved our tables in advance. I don't think you could tell from this picture but that is a humongous plate of tauge seasoned with pepper and soy sauce. The plump and crunchy Ipoh tauge that grew on water from limestone hills. The Ipoh chicken with skin yellow-er than Singapore chickens. So, what is my verdict after trying out this Tauge Chicken that Ipoh is so famous for? To be honest, I felt the chicken is over-rated. It is not that special except for its yellow skin. After dinner, we had a short shopping at The Store before returning to Kinta Riverfront Hotel to retire for the night. This is to be our last night at Ipoh. The next morning, we had our breakfast on the fourth floor. As expected, it was Nasi Lemak again. After checking out of the hotel, we moved our luggage into the coach and headed to this coffeee shop for white coffee. Next destination on the itinerary is yet another temple-in-a-cave. What is up with Ipoh's Chinese and their fascination with building temples in caves? Kek Lok Tong. By now, we must make our way back to Johor Bahru but we stopped by Tambun along the way for their Pomelos. Had always loved these green mangoes but never knew what they are called. What do you call these green mangoes anyway? We like to put the unriped ones in the rice bucket and the kitchen will permeate with their fragrance. We also stopped by Kampar for lunch at this restaurant famous for its 'Golden Pillow'. From Kampar, we made a really long journey back to Yong Peng where we had our dinner before returning to Singapore. Although this is just a short 4 days trip, we enjoyed ourselves tremendously and I hope there will be another trip to Pangkor Island soon. I wished to have the opportunity to feed and take photos of the wild Hornbills that roost on the island which was not included on the itinerary this time. Till then!

We're lucky to try some Pangkor Island dessert (not for sale) homemade by lady boss! Diet Coke and my blood sugar. How does it affect.

We have learned to regularly check the calendar for upcoming public holidays so that we can plan some short excursions on any long weekends that are available. There are many public holidays here honoring the various religious and political holidays so we want to take advantage of each opportunity to travel. Our good friend Frank had recently visited Palau Pangkor with his sisters and so we thought we would follow his footsteps there for this long weekend. This really was our first adventure driving beyond the city, but armed with our new GPS we were quite confident we could make the km journey to the ferry terminal in the town of Lumut. We traveled Hwy 5 up the west coast, parallel to the sea but just a bit too far inland to see the sea. We parked our car near the jetty and caught the 30 minute ferry to the small island of Pangkor. The island has only a couple of settlements and about 6 resorts. We were dropped off at a very long dock where a small shuttle bus was waiting to drive us the km or so to the resort. A quartet of singers and guitarist greeted us as we entered the resort, and we were handed a glass of dragon fruit juice. Our resort is on the northwest end of the island, facing the Strait of Malacca and the Andaman Sea. It has its own private beach in a secluded bay, bordered by thick jungle. After checking into our room Arlene wasted no time booking a massage. She is having back issues and the long drive had taken its toll. Our room was located in the Pacific Wing with a sea view and balcony complete with bistro table and chairs. We were warned several times though to keep the balcony door locked because the monkeys are able to open the doors. Other units located behind ours were slightly less money and had a garden view. At one end of the beach there were a few larger villas on stilts nestled against the jungle hills. We were quite happy to return to our room though, having been up since 6. We woke up Saturday morning to the sound of rain and squawks from the hornbills perched on our balcony railing. The hornbill is a cartoon-like bird with a double beak and judging by their demeanor, they are quite comfortable around humans. We realized that the children in the room adjacent to us were actually throwing bread crumbs at the birds. It was breakfast time after all! The monkeys eventually made an appearance, reminding us to lock our door. They are quite acrobatic and can scale a wall in no time. We watched as one discovered a bag of snacks and sat perched on the railing eating it like a young child would. Later, Arlene saw the same monkey dancing the rails with the chip back clenched between his teeth. On our walk to the spa we noticed 6 or more monkeys scaling the walls of the resort and watching intently as children opened balcony doors. There are also several peacocks that strut around the resort looking for handouts. It was nice to be in the salt water of the Sea of Malacca with its buoyancy and enjoying the waves. If you put your head down low enough so that you could only see water, you could pretend that the waves were 10 feet high, as you rode up with the crest. To me, the sea felt like a hot tub with the pounding surf as the jets. Once you got out, you could go in to the pool that was refreshing because it was cooler water. I noticed an odd number of young people playing beach volleyball, so I offered to even out the teams. Near the end of one set, someone jokingly suggested the losers buy the drinks. Of course, that team was ahead when the comment was made, but we came back and won in a closely fought game. Even though it was warm water, it was cooler than the air and very refreshing. One of the volleyball players brought a can of pop over to Arlene as my prize for being on the winning team. Arlene went back to the spa for a pedicure on a small verandah that was part of the spa villa. She was entertained by two monkeys who shared a bag of fish snacks and she watched as they eventually took the bag up over the roof of the villa and into the jungle. One can only imagine what treasures those monkeys would have hoarded in the jungle! However, her back got the best of her, and she gave up on that idea. Saturday evening turned overcast, so again no sunset was visible. The dinner buffet had different entries this time and I liked it better than the night before. Sunday morning we headed to a shady spot on the beach beneath a coconut tree and read and people-watched before checking out, boarding the shuttle, and ferrying back to the mainland. For the drive back we took local roads east to where it meets the main North-South Expressway, which meanders through the hilly palm groves heading back to KL. With people heading back to the city after the long weekend, the expressway was quite busy, but we realized just how busy when we stopped at a rest area. Men were lined up at the washroom like Scotiabank Place after the 2nd period. Some Muslim men had laid down their mats and were at prayer. It was a relaxing weekend on a tropical island. We look forward to exploring more islands in SE Asia, perhaps even with friends from Canada when they come to visit! Arlene and Dennis resume 'normal' life back home in Canada after 3 years living and working in Malaysia. Skip to content. Share this: Twitter Facebook Print Email.
