It's been ages since i stepped into JB. So, this is a golden opportunity to check out what's like on the other side of the causeway. Dan, Geoff, Feng, Kok, Lyon, JiaLing and me were at JB on the 27th Dec.
After being jammed at the immigration checkpoint for quite some time, the first thing on our minds was food. We headed down to Taman Sentosa to try out a coffee shop offering Bak Kut Teh. I think it's gotta be famous coz there were many patrons at that time. We ordered 2 huge bowls of Bak Kut Teh with every kind of ingredient in it, 1 bowl of Sesame Oil Chicken amd another bowl of "don't know what" chicken! Damn, whats its name? haha... anyway all of them taste superb. Many of use were sweating, but the good taste seem to nullify the heat!
Overall, the cost of the meal was about RM140.00, which is freaking cheap considering its 7 people eating it, and its costs boils down to about SGD$8.00 per person. What a bargain for a fat belly!
After that we shifted our asses to City Square (the mall beside the causeway). It's interior is about the same (or even better in some cases) as most malls in Singapore. However, the prices of items is comparable with those sold in Singapore. So, it's not much of a big deal if I've not bought anything there...
Our final progam of the day was watching "Ip Man" at Causeway Point. At first I was sceptical, thinking that it's just another Kung-Fu movie. But, it's just plain cool; all those flurry of punches and stuffs. Kok and I even joked about using the thousand punch to remove stuck food in the throat when choking on food!
Overall, a fun filled day.. Perhaps next time there might be more or such trips there, and I'll be one of the 1st to jump in the wagon!
