the journey... tired :p



What is Your Heart REALLY Made of?
brought to you by Quizilla


went to batu pahat yesterday. my father had to go for a course in kl so mom had to postpone the should be morning journey to late afternoon. i drove all the way to bp, passing muar along the way. met ali at muar town. i wonder if he told gran about meeting us. didn't have the chance to dropby, too late already.

in bp, solat and i watched loretta claiborne's story on tv3 at dahlia's rented house. touching really. then out to parit raja to buy kerepek. mmmm, kerepek haven there. dila even free-tasting each and every available kerepek. ooohh and not forgetting the conventional coconut candy. i missed the times when moksu used to make loads of them during raya. never mind, this weekend i'll ask her.

and begin the journey to experience beriyani rice. as it was getting late, our usual hangout, in front of pelican hotel was closed. the one hami recommended too - mohd shah's in front of southern, was closed. mom then raced down bp to the bp's hospital and luck was very much on my side. bariani power outlet was open.

mom said that this outlet was portrayed several times on local mags. the decos were very nice and comfy. lightings were dim, like some classy cafes. bother i didn't have any cam then.

then to the food. the rice was dry and not nice. maybe ours were the kerak ones as it was 10pm. i ordered mutton beriyani and the meat was hmmmm, maybe too much spices. but it was delicious even though the rice didn't do it justice. but the dalca was waaayyy perfect! and the iced lemon tea too! made me thought of one utama arena's food court iced lemon tea. schooooshhh cool.

the pricing was ok, paid-up with all the niceness of the place. the one we liked to hangout was a road-side stall, with plastic chairs and dirt hehe.

mom even said that if this dalca was swapped with one in front of pelican hotel, it will be perfect!

well, bp is very much famous with its beriyani rice. it is a must for outsiders. especially me! and mind you, the best way to eat beriyani is with mutton! and i liked sweet beriyani. that's the way beriyani is! :)

home at 11.30pm. and i sneaked out with atan to drive abah's car. swoooshing around to rim around apai's house :p i slept in the sofa... too tired and so....cold.
