Kuala Terengganu - Pantai Timur Satay

Hunting for food... Supper time!
 We were thinking of having satay... Thus, we spread our wings and flew to Batu Burok.


Pantai Timur Satay





We ordered Satay Daging and Satay Ayam. Each stick, RM 0.60.


Yummy! Satay infused with the aromatic flavor from the lemongrass.






Kuala Terengganu - Al-Edrus


Famous Arab food in Kuala Terengganu:

Restaurant Al-Edrus.





We tried their Mandy Lamb, Haneeth Lamb and Kabsa Lamb.

Basmati rice drenched with the gravy... + Tender and juicy lamb texture = mouth watering :P



Clockwise: Haneeth Lamb, Mandy Lamb, Menu, and Kabsa Lamb.





With Cimb credit card, you'll get a 10% discount :)
 however, they still charge you RM 2 for each credit card transaction...

Total: RM 52.40

Kuala Terengganu - Sin Phin Hiang


I adore having something soupy for breakfast especially the plain soup kind (wantan noodle soup, hor fun soup, etc.). In Kuala Terengganu (KT), there is a shop who sells Yau Chai Mien / Herbal Noodle Soup from as early as 7am.  
Yea, everyone can come and saviour this delicious and yet healthy noodle soup before they go to work.
Only RM 5 per bowl.





Yau Chai Mien / Herbal Noodle Soup



This coffee shop is at Kampung Cina. They also sell fried noodles, roti paung and some ‘kuih’.



I like their fried noodles too! and not to forget their Cantonese fried noodles.




Fried noodle and wa tang hor.



 Hokkien mee just a so-so taste...


See the paper plane? That's the shop.








Chukai, Kemaman - Restaurant Tong Cheng

THE BEST FRIED RICE I EVER TASTED!

Restaurant Tong Cheng in Chukai, Kemaman.

It is a non-halal restaurant.
Their fried rice is so fluffy with slightly dry texture. 



I keep saying wow! Everytime I tasted their fried rice ^^




The side view of the restaurant.


Direction : On Jalan Sulaiman, Kedai Kopi Hai Peng on your left. Keep straight. Look for Restaurant Dinie (a corner lot restaurant) on your right. Turn right into Jalan Che Teng. Turn right at the U-Mart. Restaurant Tong Cheng is at the back of that shop.
