Becos i have girls with me, most time they are on high heels,walking long distance with them can be a challenge (yes,i bring my girls to the temple,they will wait inside car,or just be out looking around). And as for Meximo pub,usually i go there with non-female friends,as the food there arent halal (the girls were mostly muslim),hehehe...hence walking can be a breeze.

Kong Zi Temple was gone quite some time ago,cant remember when it was gone,but i am guessing its somewhere end of last year. During CNY 2018,its no longer there anymore.

Beside Windsor Tua Pek Kong,i will be heading to Tiban Tua Pek Kong too. This one definitely cannot walk there,hehehe...


3 temples i will be heading to (Tiban and Windsor Tua Pek Kongs),the final one will be the Lucky temple. Sorry,the photo i post is gone,so i am using the picture from your post below,hehehe...

If you're on the way towards Mitra Jaya from Prudential+KFC (Sei Panas)junction the road is on the right 600m away. But you can't turn right there. You need to make a U-turn 700m ahead. (Almost reaching MitraJaya)

One you U-turn, travel back 700m now can left turn into the road.
Go about 1.2km. See small road on right turn in. it 100m on your right.

*i was lazy to flip my photo album.

By the way,have you tried the stall by the name Kwetiaw Goreng And Bakmie Medan BOTAK CUN in Batam?


...i remember about 2 years back,i ask around if anyone knows where in Batam can i buy Zongzi aka Chinese Rice dumplings,i guess no one knows. And recently, i found it!! Hehehe...


Yes,its this stall that sells it. Botak Cun food stall sells them during that rice dumpling festive season time. This guy also sells his Kwek tiaw noodles (together with other kind of noodles) in Tiban Tua Pek Kong temple during last year around June time for "almost free" during the temple's anniversary or something. I think he's a regular donor there too.

Photo was taken at the Tiban Tua Pek Kong temple

If it isnt too far out where i stay and inconvenient for my travelling on-route,i would have go in my every Batam trip to eat there.


Momo used to be one of the best,but after its gone...this eating place is in my own view, BEST (one of) in Batam. If one knows about Hor Fun in Singapore,you will know that when cooking hor fun,practically every uses the normal eggs from chicken,hehehe....this guy use duck egg. Taste was totally different.

*this eating place was 1st intro to me by bro Micmac from this forum.
