Claimed passports stolen and need to go SG consultant in Batam center. No money to buy ferry tickets back home to Singapore.

My kind of food were usually at Bai Long Bak Chok noodles at the penuin wet market, which was mention on my signature.

Or the new favorite in the area were Kek Leng Wan Tan noodle behind Gideon Hotel coffee shop. Its actually pronounce as "Ji Long" in Chinese words.


New favorite dont mean this place is new but more of an old place in a coffee shop which i find the noodles were not bad.



And by the way, its only 20k rupiah per bowl.

My few favorites were still Bai Long (Penuin wet market), Bei Long (inside A2 food court), Meximo pub wan tan noodles (about 50 steps walk away from Meximo pub) and this Ji Long (coffee shop behind Gideon Hotel). All of them selling noodles and nearly all of them closes around 12pm.

So they are pretty good for breakfast and at a much lower price,hehehe... my type of food.

Just sharing.

Hmm...come to think of it, i learned that many Chinese food stores that sells good food tends to close their shops on a Monday.

Perhaps it has to do with the fact that they were selling pork? Hehehe...should have skip Monday trip to batam in future (if i choose pork stuffs).

Thank you for sharing the opening/closing days.
