The Mooring's Yacht Club, British Virgin Islands

On one of the Sundays, went for a walk at a yacht club.

The Mooring Yacht Club is located right opposite the hotel. I just need to cross the road and find the entrance.

I went in through the wrong gate that is for staffs. So, one of the staff guided me to the visitor area which is just a few steps away.

Quite huge area. There are Dock A and Dock B.

[Below] Ice box where you can get some ice to keep your catches fresh.

I noticed a signboard for Charlie's. I wonder who is Charlie....

According to cgpt:

In maritime and yachting terminology, 'Charlie' is the signal flag for the letter C in the International Code of Signals.

More signboards....This place has a bar/restaurant, a pool and a mini mart.

Not far from there was a Caribbean cruise ship that sails among the region. After spending a few days in port, it sailed away, and another cruise ship arrived and docked in its place.

Crystal clear water. I think the environmental fee (USD10) charged to every visitor/foreigner is used to clean their sea water.

[Above] This is the main entrance.

[Above] The mini market. Similar to our KK mart/ 99 Speedmart that sells basic food and necessities but slightly pricey than the normal supermarket. This mini mart comes handy for people who needs to stock up on food and other essentials at the last minute before setting sail for several days at sea.

Ehsania

Another newly opened eatery - this time a mamak shop

It was opened not long ago....perhaps beginning August...

I was so excited to try their food and ended up eating nasi kandar and roti kosong.

Roti kosong, served with curry gravy, dhal curry and sambal. Freshly prepared upon order. Hot and fluffy.

This is their nasi kandar counter. The menu is also displayed on these screens.

I had chicken kurma, deep fried bittergourd and cabbages. RM13.90 for this plate of rice.

They have burger stall and tandoori chicken stall located outside the shop too.

I should try them one day.

Went to Warakuya again....this time i had their 'Hungry Bento'....suitable for a hungry ghost like me.

The set comes with a chicken ramen and the side dishes - chicken kaarage, salmon sushi, gyoza and bacon with enoki mushroom skewers.

This place seems to be popular and always have queue during the weekends.

101 Heritage Kopitiam

I went to try this newly opened kopitiam in the neighbourhood. According to the staff, it has been opened for 3 weeks+

Apparently, this is their 3rd branch.

I don't know what's their specialty, so I ordered my default kopitiam item - currry mee😂

Tastewise ok ler....

In this noodle, there are taupok, long beans, fishballs, fishcakes, cockles, fried shallots and spring onions...

RM17.15 nett after tax & service charge.

Their menu is quite extensive....I shall try other item from each category in my next visits.

There are Japanese series, breakfast series....

Western food...

more western food....

and also tongsui (sweet dessert soup)

The kopitiam dining area is quite spacious too...Nice ambience with cooling aircond and soothing music played in the background.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nasi Lemak Burung Hantu.....except that i'm not having their nasi lemak.

Tried other items....

Mee goreng + add on fried egg and roti kosong.

Their sirap bandung is quite nice.

shake well before drinking.....it looks pinkish like this after shake.

RM20.70 nett for all the above.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

McD promotion RM2 for a piece of original Ayam Goreng with a purchase of McValue meal, valid from 20-23 August.

This is their new version of Ori fried chicken. Taste better and tender.

I ordered a 1-piece chicken meal (comes with drink, coleslaw & mashed potato) for RM9.90, then add on the RM2 ori fried chicken.

In total RM11.90 nett for this 2 piece fried chicken meal. Quite worth-it. Hope they will repeat this promo again.

HJ Seafood Restaurant, Kuchai Lama

First time dining in this restaurant. Paid RM100 per pax for the set lunch. Here's the menu. 

It was for an event.

Food was just so-so.....mediocre.

[Below] Roasted chicken for 10 pax (per table).

Baked shrimp (according to the menu)...

Chocolate cakes...

It is a huge Chinese restaurant with a parking lot at the back. Parking fees is by hour and paid using TnG card.

The spacious Bukit Jalil LRT station on a weekend evening.

Where are all the people?

Anyang Gamjatang

Tried the newly opened Anyang Gamjatang in the neighborhood Pinnacle Mall.

Gamjatang (감자탕) is a traditional Korean soup/stew made primarily with pork backbone (or pork neck bones), potatoes, and a rich, spicy broth.

They have brunch menu which offers promotion from 10am till 3pm.

I ordered their specialty which is bbyeo haejangguk (potato with pork bone stew in a single-serving soup version).

You can choose either rice or ramyeon for carbs, which is included.

The set also came with free drink (cold plain water) and 2 types of kimchis. 

The soup is served in a Korean ttukbaegi pot and is big enough for 2 pax, although I ordered only one-piece bone. There is a slice of potato in it and some veggies.

A box of hand gloves and wet wipes are provided on every table, so you don't have to dirty your hands while eating the pork bone.

Overall, a good meal although i find the soup slightly salty. Just drink a few sips is alright.

The bill came to RM24.20 nett after service charge.

I will be back again to try the sundubu jjigae.

Treasure Isle Hotel

The office admin in BVI booked me a hotel located further away as the place that my colleagues used to stay (Maria's by the Sea) is fully occupied.

This entire block (not sure if it is part of the hotel, don't care to check) but it is vacant and looks dark and creepy at night.

It is facing the sea with yachts and cruise ship docking nearby, so I guess the view must be nice if staying in those rooms.

I'm staying in a chalet-like room. It is a 2-storey building and mine is at the upper floor.

The rooms are connected by an outdoor walkway. You'll get wet when it rains.

This walkway leads you to the side gate that is unguarded. I'm abit skeptical of the hotel's security coz anyone can just enter the hotel compound through the side gate and easily gain access to the room if they got tool to open the room lock. There are surveillance cameras, but that couldn't do much.

Not far from my room, there is a hotel pool and the hotel's only cafeteria with pricey food.

Yes, that's the hotel's main gate.

The receptionist left at 7pm and after then there's no one at the counter. But if any emergency, you can dial the number provided.

This place was so quiet throughout my 2-weeks stay....On certain nights, I came out to count how many rooms having the lights on. Only 2 rooms! Does that mean only me and another tenant?

Other than staffs, I hardly see anyone in cafeteria, lobby nor at the pool....As if no one stay there except me...hahaha!

And the housekeeping staff, I think the most around 3 person. I know one of them by name coz she is so friendly and got the time to chat with me while I was in the room. All in all, I counted the number of staffs perhaps around 10 including chefs, assistant chefs, receptionist and housekeeping staffs.

As for the food....they have menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner but the items are quite limited.

beef steak

salmon steak

some sort of grilled chicken

shrimp carbonara pasta

There you go, the menu with actual name of the dishes.....

*not my lazy description above😂

Prices are in USD.
