Restaurant Ahmad Khan, Permas Jaya, Johor Bahru.

Restaurant Ahmad Khan located at Jalan Permas 9/7, Permas Jaya. (N1°29.842' E103°49.554')
I am one of the regular customer for this 24 hours restaurant. The environment here is pretty clean, if compare with others mamak shop around JB.
Foods are average, but the roti canai is good!

This is the First mamak shop at Permas Jaya provided free Wifi services. Also the first mamak shop at Johor Bahru provide Air-con non-smoking area for family or non-smokers. Most of the tables which loacted close to the wall or pillar are provided with the AC230V power socket for notebook users. (Charges is MYR0.50 per hour)

As you can see from above....there are also many customers sit across the road.

I'm usually visit here during night time. Last night was pack with notebook and others gadgets around this mamak shop! It was too crowded! So, because of my curiosity.....I try to see what they do on their notebook computer.....
What i got here :-
* Working with bunch of documents beside.......(looks like insurance agent)
* Checking email.
* Chatting....
* Me? blogging.....
* Watching youtube short clips
* Play online game with their PSP.
* Scanning through his/her photo album
You can see the above normal situations happen at most of the Wifi area.....

PSP online gamers.....(please don't misunderstand, err....we are not gay.....)

Another different category below :-
* Bring their notebook computer, plug-in the power......watching DVD movies!!!
Friends, you 'DID' it!! I already notice that you OWN a ACER Notebook Computer! And I believe the others customer also feel the same.
Start A blog to let the world know that you OWN a computer and show off that IT can play my DVD movie!
And last advise from me, your volume was TOO loud and disturb others customer beside you!

Beside this, it's worth visit this restaurant..... :)

When I'm old.......当我老了.......

* 当我老了，不再是原来的我。请理解我，对我有一点耐心。

* 当我把菜汤洒到自己的衣服上时，当我忘记怎样系鞋带时，
请想一想当初我是如何手把手地教你。

* 当我一遍又一遍地重复你早已听腻的话语，
请耐心地听我说，不要打断我。
你小的时候，我不得不重复那个讲过千百遍的故事，直到你进入梦想。

* 当我需要你帮我洗澡时，
请不要责备我。
还记得小时候我千方百计哄你洗澡的情形吗？

* 当我对新科技和新事物不知所措时，
请不要嘲笑我。
想一想当初我怎样耐心地回答你的每一个［为什么］。

* 当我由于双腿疲劳而无法行走时，
请伸出你年轻有力的手腕扶我。
就像你小时候学习走路时，我扶你那样。

* 当我忽然忘记我们谈话的主题，
请给我一些时间让我回想。
其实对我来说，谈论什么并不重要只要你能在一旁听我说，我就很满足。

* 当你看着老去的我，
请不要悲伤。
理解我，支持我，就像你刚开始学习如何生活时我对你那样。

* 当初我引导你走上人生的路，如今请陪伴我走完最后的路。
给我你的爱和耐心，我会抱以感激的微笑，
这微笑中凝结着我对你无限的爱。

What is the name of this plant?

I bought it from the Souvenir shop at the Iskandar Waterfall along the main road between Cameron Highland & Tapah. And according to the seller, it is ONLY available at Camaron Highland!! You can refer from this post.

It's been more than five years. And I confirm it's alive, as you can see from the picture below......it will grows some kind of Gold new "Skin" on the right, and the old is on the left. It's look similar like golden hair.
Today it still grows slowly....

According to the seller, it will grows bigger.....but the one shows on the picture above does not grow. My relatives bought another 2, they grew ! It's about 10mm more!
One of my friend (Mr Kumar) said that it is the "Fern" . You can read it from the Wiki. But I feel that......not really similar on the outlook. What's your opinion? Any idea? Any name for it?

Shi-Hua Bak Kut Teh, Permas Jaya, Johor Bahru

Shi Hua (Wah) Bak Kut Teh (N1°29.865' E103°49.182') at Taman Permas Jaya is one of our favorite!! It's located at the junction of Jalan Permas 9/3 and Jalan Permas 9/5, just next to the Jusco Shopping Center Permas Jaya.

We usually visit it on Sunday morning and always pack of peoples! The average time for the foods to serve is 15 minutes, for me.....it's still acceptable. :)

This is what we order normally, the pork is gentle, my family love it very much. And they maintain the standard of the food all the time!

Prices are reasonable. Less than MYR25.00 for the above meal.

* Shop name corrected from 'Shi Hua' to 'Shi Wah' Bak Kut Teh. (30th Nov 2008)

Lata (Waterfall) Iskandar at Cameron Highland

Iskandar Waterfall (N4°19.535' E101°19.446') is located between Cameron Highland and Tapah. (You will definitely pass by if you going to the Highland from Tapah)

On the day we left Cameron highland, we drop by this waterfall.....because attracted by are many stalls along the main road which are selling souvenirs. I bought a plant looks like a coconut that I don't know what the name of it. According to the locals, you can only get this at Cameron Highland. It will grow bigger but no flowers! And it still alive today! :) (I will snap the photo and post it later...)

As you can see the souvenir stalls along the road

During our visit to the waterfall, the area looks quite clean and well maintain. But I wonder the situation now?!
The water was ICE cold because it's situated almost about 1000 meter above sea level......

Little Penang at Taman Perling, Johor Bahru.

Kopitiam (coffee shop) Leong Seng Huat (N1°29.023' E103°40.835') located at Jalan Simbang, Tmn Perling, just next to Pizza Hut.

I describe this shop as Little Penang because the owner and others hawkers stall all are from Penang. You will have a chance to taste the original Penang foods like : Penang Hokkien Mee (as Prawn noodle at JB), Loh Mee, Penang Char Koay Tiaw and Penang Kuey Tiaw soup. I love to visit this shop because of this is the only shop (at the moment) selling Penang foods. They even use the Penang method to serve the coffee or tea......

I ordered the Char Koay Tiaw this time and I rated 4/5!! It's worth trying others hawker if you happen to be there. I rated all are the same - 4/5!

Previously they sell the Superb Penang Assam Laksa. Too bad they stop it because of their fish supply not consistant!
I love the Laksa very much! But too bad....it's become history today. I still cannot find the replacement until today!

p/s : I will update the GPS Coordinates in the future.

Cactus Valley, Brinchang - Cameron Highland

We visited this big nice Cactus Valley (N4°29.674' E101°23.200') on the 2nd day of the trip (Sep, 2003). I cannot remember the entrance fees now......hmm, my poor memory!

Basically, it's full of choices of the Cactus and colourful too!

The Biggest Cactus in the valley!!

One of the visitor of this blog – Mr Kumar told that there's a Big Red Strawberry Farm and the back of this Valley. But you have to walk through Cactus Valley.....and it's FREE entrance! If you are happen to here the Cactus Valley, it's worth visit this Hi-tech farm few steps further up!
