Happy travelling: July 2009

First time going JB by bus, we give a try time time since there is direct bus near our neighbourhood.
GG showing off her buns:)

It takes bus 170 around 30mins to reach Woodland custom, alight and to screen our passport, resumed bus again and head to Johor new custom. After clearance from Johor custom, follow the crowd and walked to City Square thru the link bridge. All covered with aircon, do not even need to step out of the street at all:)

When just step in to City Square, the first shop we patronise, Mr Baoz! 包子先生.
Many varieties, steamed or deep fried.
For just $3.50 you can get any Baoz and a green tea during lunch time & tea break.
We had treid 2 sets, Viennese cheese with ham, BBQ chicken, both nice but former is better. Their green tea nice too........

We bought some back home at the end of the day.

1/2 dozen for $15.80RM
3pcs for $8.50RM
Curry chicken, Viennese cheese & ham, Onion chicken.

Vienese cheese, Curry chicken, Strawberry chocolate.

Nice packing ya

After this GG proceed to Kenny Roger for her muffin, $2.20RM per pcs. Smaller pcs n too soft. Will not go back again.

Next, we headed to Cathy Cinema for her Pop Corn $6RM for a regular one. Very sweet, we like it.

We had our lunch late since eaten many things, we proceed to the basement Stone Grill.
Chicken Tom Yum Tang Hoon $8.90RM, very big serving, sufficient for 2.

Seafood Combo For 2 $51.90RM- Fish fillets, squids, prawns
It comes with mashed patatoes and coleslaw....

After lunch, we proceed to our next destination, Jaya Jusco located in Tebrau City.
We took a cab there for $18RM, taking a bus will be $2RM each around 25 mins.

Mini donuts, 12 for $2.50

We buy one at Lavender Bakery, Bamboo charcoal with balck sasame seed bun $2.80RM.
Abit tough but after taste is nice.
Lavender Bakery is nice place for tea breaks, they served snacks and drinks as well.

Currently bamboo charcoal is very popular here Johor, Bamboo Charcoal Bread everywhere, $3.50RM for 3 slices.
I remember it was very popular then in Japan when I was there years ago.

I long for Starbuck's White chocolate frap. Unfortunately they don't sell it here, but they have Caramel cream frap.
$13.15RM for venti (L).

We pass by this Macau restaurant, decided to try their Portuguese Egg tarts.

Don't judge the look of these egg tarts!
They are fabulous!!! They serve all piping hot!
Cripsy and yet tender and juicy inside, is a MUST try...

Then, we order a Steamed ginger milk (姜汁炖奶) $4RM, it is nice too:) exactly the same as those I ate in Hong Kong. Afterwhich we decided to have dinner here later.

We then walked to Tesco which is just opposite Jusco, smaller mall but heard was cheaper range for supermarts. Bought Kueh Bhulu a small box (18pcs), quite nice, should buy a bigger box.

SEE, GG enjoying so much:)
