Sekinchan Trip, Day 2

We woke up late the next morning and checked out of The One Boutique Hotel at around 11am. We then headed to Ah Ma House to sample their signature charcoal grilled love letters.

it was another blazing hot day

but we braved the heat anyway

not unlike the swing at my mother's house

items from yesteryear

with retro styled furniture that's now back in fashion

the flat screen TV is an eye sore though

We then bade a fond farewell to Sekinchan and drove for about half an hour due south to the next small town of Tanjung Karang. Here we planned to have lunch at another seafood restaurant. Suang Le River Restaurant was chosen (again) solely for its stunning location beside Sungai Tengi and the views it accorded us.

the very deceptive front facade

we were very skeptical at first

then it dawned on us

first whiff of the salty air

my money shot

ahoy there!

Since this is a purely seafood restaurant, we made do with their signature Kung Pao styled fish, Lala (soft clams) in rice wine and some omelettes.

digging in

Again the meal did not come to RM100, another pleasant surprise. The amazing view of Sungai Tengi, however, is priceless!

time to say goodbye

We bade farewell to Tanjung Karang and in less that 2 hours were back home, safe and sound. This is trip that will repeat itself in the future, this we are certain of.
