The next day was a Saturday and everyone took their own sweet time to wake up. In Johor Bahru (JB), there was no walking exercise and we do not take any breakfast. We only had early lunch and dinner. While in JB, every meal was a new experience for me. I have passed by JB a few times, but this is the first time I have stayed in JB.
My eyes caught sight of this yellow feather as we passed by this way.
This is where we had our first lunch in JB.
Kedai Bak Kut Teh Hin Hock.
If you want steamed fish, you will have to choose the fish first.
Open kitchen
Just after this, all these tables were filled up.
While waiting for the food to be served, we ordered some otak-otak (Muar style).
Some of the chosen condiments.
We ordered the following dishes for 5 people to share.
Bak Kut Teh (pork rib herbal soup) with bean curd crisps in a clay pot.
Blanched Malabar Spinach topped with lots of dried shrimps.
Stewed pork leg in black soy sauce
Blanched Romaine Lettuce
Steamed fish with lots of spring onions, crispy fried shallots & black soy sauce.
Yam or taro rice - my favourite!
After this hearty lunch, we need to take a walk in one of the shopping malls.
Hari Raya decorations in the shopping mall.
I can't remember which shopping mall.

A young family taking snapshots in front of the Hari Raya decorations.
The person who has been born into God's family does not make a practice of sinning
because now God's life is in him; so he can't keep on sinning,
for this new life has been born into him and controls him
- he has been born again.
(1 John 3:9, The Living Bible-TLB)
Really a hearty lunch. I would need a long walk to get rid of those calories.
ReplyDeleteI have been to JB but very short stay. One night only. Didn't go around much. I couldn't remember much about JB. Haha. Our transit from Singapore back to Nilai back then.
This is my first time visiting JB and getting to spend a few days there. Managed to try some nice food there!
