KB...Bon Appetite!



Memang benar apa menjadi yang perbualan lazim bila sebut pasal juadah di Kelantan - sungguh pelbagai. Yg lazim dikunjungi setiap kali menjengah ke KB adalah nasi kukus or nasi paku or nasi tumpang or nasi air..etc

This time around when i was in KB i came across a list of kuih that being offered at a restaurant not far from Azam Hotel (in fact it is closer to PK corner). Attached above is the list... please take note
- Char Kuil = char koy (kayu keramat as called by Ganu kite).
- Murtabak di Raja = RM3.20 sehiris (i managed to buy a piece of murtabak diraja for RM12)
- The rest of them 'lu pikir lah sendiri'.

Extra Cendol...

'Bendera Malaysia berasal dari bendera negeri Melaka yg diperkenalkan menjadi bendera Malaysia....'. Ini adalah antara teks yg dibaca oleh Leman Dawi apabila kita masuk ke kedai Cendol beliau yg berlokasi tidak jauh dr Pedas (kolam air panas). Macam-macam info yg dicerita dan dicelotehkan kepada pelanggan yg mengunjungi gerai cendol beliau.

ada ketikanya kita berasa-rasa was-was dgn apa yg diperkatakannya (in-fact at first I thought he was one of those with 'skru-longgar' making such statement - rupanya dia le owner kedai cendol tu). Mungkin disebabkan pengalaman beliau berniaga menyebabkan beliau rasa kita meragui statement yg dikeluarkan...apalagi,terus dikeluarkan buku rujukan yg mengesahkan statementnya. Memang ada keratan akhbar, maklumat lain yg direkodkan dlm buku kecil beliau. Elok jugakan kalau bawa ayat Quran atau Hadis Nabi - byk yg boleh dihafalnya.

Never mind that, apa yg penting gerai cendol Leman Dawi ni membolehkan kita tambah cendol bila kita nak dengan sekali bayar aje. (paling murah RM1.50 utk cendol biasa) Tambah lah berapa kali yg kita nak sebab nak tambah cendol, ais atau gula merah, semuanya ada di atas meja tempat kita menjamu selera cendol kita.

Insya-Allah sekira berkelapangan boleh singgah di Cendol Leman Dawi yg popular dan dipopularkan lagi selepas masuk TV. Mungkin keunikannya adalah
1. Leman Dawi &
2. juga cendol boleh tambah byk kali
3. selain dr masuk tv.

Last but not least, SELAMAT MENIKMATI - syukran

Perjanjian Baling...



14-15 Okt 2010 Baling
Rasanya dah lama tak mencoret dalam blog ini sejak berjinak dengan facebook - ada kalanya 'get carried away with FB' especially when comes to chatting or getting to know old friends whereabouts.
Recently or to be exact on 14th Oct, Faidz and I drove to Baling, Kedah to pay a visit to Mini Training Centre set up by our colleague for the purpose of conducting practical locally & also to be used for practical exam co-ordinated by us at HQ.

There are 2 routes to get to Baling from KL:(1) via Kuala Kangsar, Sauk, Gerik & (2) via Seberang Perai. We took route (1) on our way to Baling and route (2) on the way back to KL. The road from Kuala Kangsar to Gerik (i thougt the spelling is Grik but it's Gerik as displayed on the signboard) then to Baling was good all the way.
A few places names' got us laughing. Among others:
1) Kg Seterus (mungkin lepas kg ni ada kg seterusnya?)
2) Restoran memang sedap (rest area on the way to Gerik)
3) Kg Belum Baru (this is the best one)

I even managed to ask one of the mak cik while having char kway teow in front of Mt Baling the location of Perjanjian Baling between Chin Peng (Komunis Malaya) and Tunku Abdul Rahman. It was held at a scholl - Sek Men Tengku Putra. In fact the school is still in operation & the very room is kept as muzium!
Here are some photos of Baling that i managed to shoot but NOT the place of the 'unique' names...
