Eat, Play, Love in KB

After filling up Haji Maidin, next stop, NAAFI!

p/s: Haji Maidin is the name given to Atul’s car by herself. Don’t play play, car also naik haji.

01
The girls and their hauls.

It’s so funny when the staffs in Naafi can actually identify that they’re all from BSB just from the way they dressed. I guess, it’s the same as.. I’m always in t-shirt, short pants when I go Soon Lee get something and only bother to dress up a little when I go BSB.

After shopping (for chocolates and keropoks and dips and more chocolates!), I brought them to Nul Hajika for some Roti John HK Style with Cheese sauce and Mee Gulung.

Now, this is the legend…. wait for it… dary Mee Gulung of Nul Hajika. I love Barney Stinson!

There’s no “mee” in the above picture but….

*tada*, when you cut open the egg, the delicious mee kuning is all inside!
It’s like Nasi Pattaya, instead of rice.. it’s noodle with yummy sauce. You got to try this!

05
Next, the lagi more legend-wait for it-dary Roti John HK Style with cheese sauce!

The girls just kept repeating that it’s nyaman and ordered a second serving for this. Tips, order some french fries to dip in those yummy cheese sauce. You’re going to love it!

06
Corn soup with crab meat. This one no need to intro la… very common.

After makan-makan, we went to the town for some mini-shopping. Called it “mini” because we only went to Nanyang and Bodyshop. And before the sunset and the rain comes, we dropped by Billionth Barrel Monument.

07
Tourists D, A, and T.

09
I showed them this because that particular animal has been bugging me for quite some time. I think it’s a dugong.. but still, it doesn’t quite look like a dugong!

Apakan tu?

Well, clearly… Tina was not interested. HAHHAHHAAAHAA

It started to drizzle a little and hence we headed to our next destination…. my house! For toilet breaks and refreshing, and introduced them to my mom. And now, I can easily tell my mom who are those girls I had frequent dinners with in BSB. It’s really hard to explain when you don’t have a tech-savy mom you know.

Macam… “Ma, errr… I go BSB ah… Having dinner with friends. Who? Err.. I know them from blog one.. Internet… Ah.. Don’t worry, they’re nice people!”

For dinner… BUCCANEER!

I tell you, everyone loves that place! It wasn’t quite what they imagined at first, hearing babies wailing, kids running around, adults makan-makan, talking-talking. Not exactly a dim-lighted romantic place with cheesy lobby music. It’s very… how to say.. family-oriented.

We ordered….

13
Fresh Oysters! BND24 for a dozen!

To be honest, I’d never ordered this before in Buccaneer and I just don’t know what to expect. But the oysters were really really fresh! And they’re not karit with the dipping and lemon! Unlike some, only one thinly sliced lemon on top of oyster.

I can literally taste the ocean!

It was gone in 5 minutes!

And Atul took 3 minutes to eat one. Hhahahhaa. It was her very first time trying fresh oyster and … she didn’t take it very well. The facial expression on her face when she “chewed” the oyster was priceless!

Nevermind, more for us to nom-nom!

14
Dee’s pumpkin soup – BND4

15
Seafood Pasta – BND9

16
Dinner roll – BND0.80 each.

Sebenarnya, those dinner rolls are complimentary. One for each and served warm. Atul loved it so much that she ordered two more!

17

Grilled seafood platter – BND23

THIS IS VERY GOOD TOO! The calamari was grilled to such perfection! It’s not rubbery at all and it’s easy to chew them. I want the oysters and this seafood platter again!!!!!!


18

Garlic bread with cheese – BND3.50

Forgot to take a picture of Tina’s milkshake. She ordered Banana and Avocado Milkshake that is not in the menu and asked the waitress if they could make it for her. They did! Good kan? Talk about good service!

19
Last last, fruit platter… complimentary too!

 

 

 

So, there.. blog post done!
No more hutang. Hahaahhahahaa.

If you’re new to KB and have no idea what to do, where to go, what to eat.. feel free to ask me.

Winking smile

The how-to: First self-service petrol pumps in Brunei

If you follow me, or any of us in twitter (which you totally should if you have not! Click here), you’ll know that yesterday was GB (Girly bloggers) very first road trip down to Belait. One word, SUPER FUN! Okay, make that two.

I’m going to break the trip into several posts… so that I have more posts to blog about instead of one lengthy one. *marketing skill wtf*

So, imma start with… How to fill up your car at the petrol station!


Roxana Shell Service Station, or “Roxette” for Tina, is the very first self-service petrol station in Brunei. I do know that there’s a lot of people who don’t go there anymore because of the “self-service” part. For me, honestly, I kind of enjoy doing it myself… (rather than daydreaming and getting all impatient in the car). Some drives all the way to KB just to get diesel (because the other petrol station in Seria tak ada diesel) !

Atul wanted to fill petrol for her car and I asked if she wanted to do it herself and she replied me a BIG YES!

So this is what you do.

1. Off your car engine. Hahahhahahhahahhaa. Okay, lame. I’ll be serious this time.

Here’s the steps that you don’t even need to remember actually.

1. Walk into the shop.

2. Queue up and when it’s your turn, tell the shop attendant your station number, type of gas and amount you want to fill. Pay upfront. No, you can’t use your credit card on the fuel pumps to pay. They do it at the counter.

3. Then open the fuel cap.

and entertain your friend and smile for the camera.

4. Lift the pump handle and insert the nozzle into the fuel cap, pull the lever until the fuel begins to flow. Keep an eye on the counter display which will increase as the fuel enters your vehicle in both price and volume.

popping her fill-petrol cherry.
Hmmm.. I just realised, SEBENARNYA, banyak cherries si Atul di popped last Sunday.

5. Remove nozzle when done, close the fuel cap.

Ta Da! You’re done!

It’s not complicated at all, kan?
