Perhaps i should had written this 3 weeks ago before coming back from Tanjung Karang when my memories of my 2 months' life there were still fresh.That was probably the happiest moment in my life as a medical student: no worries from waking up late, being late for lectures, pressure and expectations from doctors, and the best parts are,unlimited access to seafood and a bunch of nice friends being my fellow posting mates.
These are from one of the seaside restaurants (more like a kopitiam) located in
Bagan Tengkorak. The environment was unremarkable and the service was so so BUT the food was really NICE!! 5 star rating for the food...

Another must-try was the satay in
Satay Hut which is one of the best-known restaurants selling Malay food. The selling point was that the satays were really LARGE in size and they tasted heavenly perfect with the specially made kuah. Some even said that they tasted better than the satays in Kajang, Thumbs up!!
Then there was this very well-known and famous
Nasi Ambeng originated from Johor. It was basically a combination of 4 food : mee goreng, ayam goreng plus another 2 side dishes of which i could not recognise. Despite its renowned reputation, i found it average n not really worth a try (no offence, oops).
There is another restaurant called
色香味海鲜楼. The food was average and the price was quite resonable for a casual dinner.
BUT, if u want to pamper your taste buds once in a while, u should go here :
Restaurant Kuala Selangor in Pasir Penambang. Every single dish is temptatious and the Fried Sotong topped with Mayonnaise was simple IRRESISTABLE!!! The price was slightly high compared to the other restaurants but it was much worth trying.
On the last day before leaving, all of us (19 people all together) went to
Sekinchan for a reunion lunch in a restaurant called
Jian Chye. The specialty was shark porridge and it was worth trying as well.
The life over there was not just about food. We did not forget to go to the tourist spot
Bukit Melawati. It was yet another historical place but one thing that caught our attention was the monkeys there which they called 'lotong'. They were so tame and the baby monkeys were sooooo CUTE!!
One of the outdoor activities that i enjoyed most was
KAYAKing. I have forgotten the name of the place but it was somewhere near Batang Berjuntai if not mistaken. The only downside was that, I had indeed becane darker after the activity and it took weeks before i could regain my original complexion!!
All in all, i really had enjoyed my life over there. It would be just nice for a short vacation to escape from the hassle and buzzer in KL but i stil could not cultivate much interest in the posting itself. Anyway thanks to the authority who gave us this opprtunity to compile another chapter of our lives.
