They have a Manu without stating price.
But due to the nice view (Barelang bridge on the back ground)

we decided to take our late lunch here

[BFOMF5]

On top of the strange Manu that show no price... the minimum Order of serving is 1/2kg.

Our late lunch. .


Surprisingly. ...
The bill


Definitely RTE

True. Taste average nia. Prefered Punggur one.
Only the price is ok, cheaper.
I have tried batam centre branch few times, seem the price at Paiyu is also cheaper.

From the look of it,i think they provide only a one-layered queen size bed-mattress.

No boat to P.Tunjuk
Ask around for speed boat to any Pulau...
Lion open big big mouth 3J/trip

Sincerely thank you for the info.

No boat to Pulau Tunjuk from Telaga Punggur Harbour? I might have other plans then,but still need to figure things more. I may be looking for tour agent to bring me there since i found one that organize trekking trips to Pulau Mencaras,hehehe...then again,its at 750k rupiah per pax as they advertised.

I might need to gather more friends to join me if i am on a tour group.

Its probably the same theory as how i started traveling during my 1st Batam trip. Get to know the driver (boat driver) and in future can do a private negotiation with them again (language barrier is often one the things that refrained me from going further out,so i need to sort that part out too).

Cost only Rp4k

I thought you were already driving around in Batam?

Next time if there's a chance, need to follow you to try to take bus to move around,hehehe...

...i dont even wish to talk about this Blue Mountain Kelong Resort,hehehe...1 simple reason,cost to stay for one night is about S$400. I mention this resort now becos i might have a follow up of yet another higher end resort place (but not as high as the Blue Mountain Kelong resort) which is after bridge 3.


Wow no kidding S$400... better go phuket sia LOL

Thanks bro Nono for the info and reply

From map..
The east coast of P.Rempang should hv some jetty that nearer to the group of pulau.
Will explore later.

if you ever see that in Batam,let me know. I am looking to buy one,hehehe...its good for camping out tho,hehehe...i think its very innovative. Imagine,going to a seaside in the early evening to watch the sunset with it. Surely i dont want mosquitoes to start "ice cream" my lil bro,hehehe...

I dont know what vege is that,but those who knew me well enough knows in most of my Batam meals (and in Singapore too) do not have vegetables,hehehe...but only in Batam will i not turn down this plate of vegetable on your stated photo above.

In fact,the vegetable on your photo is my 1st plate of vegetable i have tried in Batam. I shown my family members the photo you posted,they were also surprise i willing ate that kind of vegetables too (they laughed).

*i take more fruits than veggies
