Dinner @ Restaurant Singgah Selalu

I Like To Move It, Move It with Madagascar 2! Anyway, last Saturday night at Johor, we were done with the set-up of the venue and thought of just going for lunch around the corner. But then, surprise surprise, we were told to get ready and meet at the lobby at 7.30pm (but we ended up waiting til 8.30pm) before leaving for the restaurant. Did ask them where we are heading to but no one new except our gracious host.

And then we saw it, Danga Bay, I was just sharing with some of the crew what to expect at Danga Bay and so forth and we are there! But wait, the bus rolled on and didn’t stop at the esplanade, and then it struck me, the only other restaurant that’s famous on that stretch would be the Singgah Selalu restaurant! By Jov, I was right!

Otak Otak (direct translation: Brain Brain)

Anyway, cut all the long chatter short, we sat ourselves down, didn’t have to place any orders as they soon served the food and we just jump right at it. I won’t talk much about the food that was served but just to share with you in photos what we ate. Some of the photos will have some footnotes though. Overall, the food was ok. I’ve tasted better but what made it great was the company I was with. We had a good laugh all around so that really makes the night enjoyable.


Milo Dinosaur (Can you see the dinosaurs roaming above the milo?)


Durian Ice Kacang (Serena C ordered it as soon as she laid eyes on it)


Thai Style fried Rice – Spicy dish


Lemon Chicken


Tom Yam Soup


Ikan Bakar


Sotong Bakar

Well, that’s what we ate, 3 tables, all sharing the same dishes except for the drinks and the Durian Ice Kacang dessert which only my table get to try. Anyway, Saturday, 25th Oct, I should be on the way to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah by then, hopefully I would have more food experience to share with the readers here. Til then, my next update would be after I return from KK which would be on the Monday!
