Pengarang Trip III

Despite been to pengarang so many times, i still love to travel there with family & frens cuz of the gd food there, most importantly dad has many frens there & we are always being welcome warmly.

Rise & shine, woke up as early as 6am, took a bum boat from changi terminal & we reached pengarang at a very early timing of 9 plus in the morning.

Hmm....ride on bum boat is full of excitement. haha....
As we reaches early & uncle davide onli open for business at 11am. We met up with uncle david & his wife for breakfast at the nearby coffeeshop. After coffee, i walked around the place to explore. Having been here for so many times, i find tt the place is still worth exploring. I haven been to the temple & beach.

This is the 1 & onli shell petrol kiosk there. Not bad ya!

As i walked around, i chance upon a fire station & I didn't noe that they have 1 there. The model of their fire engine is a very old skool type. Hmm...actually i'm wondering does it serve the purpose there? Izzit meant to be of use or izzit more for displaying purpose!

Wow.....a glass house wor! Heard tt the owner spent lots of $ on building this house. Oso heard tt there's a swimming pool of the roof top!Shiok ar? The owner reali knows how to enjoy life.

This is uncle david's in-law house. I been there to visit the elderly b4 but i'm terrified of the 2 big dogs they have.
Actually it will be vey to stay over at this kinda houses, away from the noisy cities like wat we have here.

See, there's even a mini garden to grow some lovely flowers.
Or by the drain outside the house.

Erm.....over the fence as well!

Even in pots outside the house along the roadside.

Wow...so lovely!

Everytime i passed by this mango tree, i tends to stand below it & admires the lovely mangoes.
Weather is so hot that even stray dog seeks shelter under the tree.
After my exploring experience, its almost timing tt uncle david open for business.
I saw him catching some lobsters out from the tank, oh mine, they are reali active ya, keep splurting water juz when they are about to be lifted.

I managed to catch 1 big lobster by the feelers.Any idea izzit male or female? Ans is its a male. How to differentiate male & female lobster? Well, u gotto take a look at their legs. Female lobsters has split end while the male doesn't have.

While waiting to be served, we had some red wine.

Wow...our usual yi pin wo, oh ya & its onli available upon ordering in advance. :-)

My favourite Steamed Red Flower Fish. They juz arrived straight from the fishing port tt morning. Can u imagine how fresh they were? & the flesh is so sweet & tender!

Dad's all time favourite fattening & sinful food~Braised Pig Trotters with Yam.

Another of our usual order~Hotplate Oyster Egg.

Stir Fry Chye Sim with Garlic

Stir Fry Wild Boar Meat, as compared, i still prefer the braised wild boar meat.

Steamed lobsters~ i reali loved steamed dishes.

Steamed Prawns with Gingers.

This is my favourite of the day~Claypot Stewed wild piglet. In fact this is my 1st time having this dish. The sauce is thick & full of flavours.

Assorted fruits after meal, the pineapple is sweet & juicy.

I bought some tiramisu ice-cream from the minimart next door. Can't find them in singapore.
Having ate too much, i went for a walk with Adam b4 we leave for singapore.
The last time i saw this kind of water dispenser was when i was in bangkok sometimes back. I didn't expect that i could find it in a ulu & quiet place like pengarang.

I tot it would be of no use as normally residents would cook water for own consumption.However, i was rather surprise when i saw pple filling up many giant bottles.
20cents rm for 500ml is considered cheap.If i remembered correctly, the wan in bangkok is about 25cents sing for 1500ml, but tt time after i filled up mine, the machine still gushes out plenty of water & a thai lady managed to fill up at least 2/3 of her 1500ml water bottle.

A very traditional confectionary which sells handmade biscuits.

Wat's that? A mobile soy beancurd stall! yup, the last time i saw a kway teow stall & now its beancurd.

I bought a bowl of Soy Beancurd with Gula Melaka. yum...yum...wat a soft & smooth tau huay! Taste much more better than the selegie tau huay we have in singapore.
After our tau huay break, we proceed to the new custom to wait for our bum boat. I saw this aquarium with many different kinds of underwater creature living in it.
Erm...this long thingy is belongs to the prawn family. Its called "hai tang lang" sort of a sea mantis.

Surprisingly that there's a beautiful angel fish as well.

I bought some dried goods like dried shrimps & ikan bilis, my favourite coffee as well!


Last but not least, some local delights like tau sar piah, pong piah, homemade kaya. Some crackers & chocolate biscuits.I took the risk to smuggle a bottle of chewing gum back as well. haha...this is my favourite green tea mint flavour!
