J4 in Johor Bahru

It's our second overseas trip!! cool!!! holding high expectations for this trip...

2:00 pm - Picked up js, jt & jl from causeway point

2:20 pm - Reached singapore customs, a little jammed, but with jt around, time seems so much easier to pass, dun even need radio in the car, he's a live entertainer

2:40 pm - LONG jam along causeway, super hazy weather, it's so hazy that js felt cold just by looking out of the car 2:50pm - saw an interesting signboard on the causeway, lousy english!! 2:55pm - so bored we started taking photos in the car, jt say out of singapore no need to put seat belt
3:00pm - jt: there's this cafe in citysquare that has VERY good coffee, later we must go try!!

3:30pm - finally reached city square and found a parking lot, so the first thing was to look for the cafe with very good coffee

3:35pm - found season cafe and ordered our drinks and 2 cakes. my lime soda tasted like mama lemon according to them, the apple milk tea taste a little funny, irish cream ice blended not bad, tiramitsu ice blended dun taste like tiramitsu.. drinks rating-5 out of 10, cheesecakes-7.5 out of 10

4:00pm - walked around citysquare and realised that there's nothing to shop for

5:00pm - decided to go to another shopping mall across the road, WRONG choice, that shopping centre has almost no chinese shoppers!! lagi more difficult to buy things

5:20pm - walk back to citysquare, found a ulu shortcut, while walking across the ulu path, we saw a few dying birds or were they chickens by the side ... hopefully they do not have bird flu

5:40pm - dinner time, first stop, paper wraped chicken, some call it emperor chicken, it's some where near taman sentosa, i dun know the address, just knew how to drive there. we ordered 1 chicken and 4 barley drinks, that's all, a few stalls selling this chicken, but if i'm not wrong, this one is the best. Zhu2 Lin2 bamboo restoran. haha ... ratings: chicken-9.5 out of 10, barley-7 out of 10
6:00pm - second stop, taman sri tebrau hawkers centre (taman sentosa) for seafood!! actually this is the main reason why we want to come jb, for the cheap seafood!!
6:05pm - found a seat, quite a few stalls that sells seafood, but i vaugely remember a friend telling me to look for a stall that has a number on the signboard, so it gotta be the one with a super big 59
6:10pm - ordering starts. 1 bbq sting ray, sambal kangkong, butter oat prawn... but dunno how much to order. waiter: 100g of prawn for $4. jx: how heavy is 1 prawn? waiter: 100g for 2 small prawn or 1 big prawn. js: ok we'll have 8 big prawns. next is butter crayfish... decided to have 1 crayfish each ... so we ordered 4 crayfish. and 1 chilli crab with 6 pieces of fried mantou.. also ordered fried egg oyster, chee cheong fan and sugar cane ...
ratings (out of 10) : sugar cane-9 (cannot really go wrong), chee cheong fan-6.5, oyster egg-8, kangkong-7, stingray-7, butter oat prawn-10, butter crayfish-8.5, chilli crab and mantou-7.5.

price : RM $165

8:15pm - dessert? haha we all bought 3 mangoes each from the friut stall, jl could actually talk to them in melayu!! still waiting for the mangoes to ripe, dunno sweet or not ..
8:30pm - went to top up petrol and then chill out at a pub called orang orang... i think js jt and jl want to kill me for bringing them there... rating for drinks here-2 out of 10 ... never going again. but the interesting thing here is that the waitresses have number tags and you call them by their number

9:15pm - leaving jb at the flyover towards the customs, jam starts!! bad sign..

10:15pm - drove pass citisquare, js decided to tuen up the volume of the radio because we have been listening too much to the jt channel.

10:50pm - got out passports chopped

11:00pm - jam at singapore customs

11:20pm - cleared customs.....

11:40pm - js reaches home
