Kuantan Getaway

Last week, my wife and I took a break in Kuantan. It was a long overdue trip and we had many things to do. Among them a break from work, grocery shopping, shopping for new work clothes, facial, etc. We started of with a night's stay at Bukit Gambang Resort City. You can read about it here.


Steamed Chinese Yam Cake that was served at the Arabian Bay Resort during breakfast. Not bad but I recommend the Caribbean Bay Resort's coffee house food over the Arabian Bay.


On our way to Kuantan we stopped by to see what the aborigines had made. They were pretty expensive... the ladel my wife's holding costs RM25. We didn't really need anything so we gave it a miss given the price.


My wife was craving for Japanese food so Sushi King is a must. We arrived at about 12 noon. The manager (I think) stopped us at the entrance and apologised, stating that they had a training and would need about 15 minutes more before the concluded and requested that we came back later. We waited nearby and when they were ready we proceeded in. As a gesture they waived off two of our most expensive dishes. Wow! Impressive!


And of course we had to have our fix of Starbucks as we don't have it in Terengganu.


Then we went to Berjaya Mega Mall as I wanted to have this Nasi Lemak. It hasn't changed one bit in terms of taste and portion consistency. Impressive, 5 years later and it's still good but it now costs RM2.80.


Before we left Kuantan we stopped by for Hoi Yin's Curry Mee at Teluk Cempedak. Again, this is one of those that managed to keep their consistency all these years.

We will be coming back to Kuantan again soon as this is the nearest place for us for our 'Sanity Trip'. However, next month it will be back to Kuala Lumpur as I have a court case to attend.
