Restoran Duyong, Cherating, May 2012

Dear Diary,

After everybody had enough of fun splashing time in the coldpool water, it’s time to pack and check out from Holiday Villa Cherating. We had made arrangements with my uncle, Pak Ban to meet up for late lunch at Restoran Duyong.

Pak Ban lives in Kemaman. Whenever we visit him, without fail he would treat us at Restoran Duyong. There’s nothing fancy about the restaurant, just an ordinary look eating place within a chalet compound. But don’t let the exterior façade deceives you because the foods are marvelous. The chef has been able to maintain the superb taste from as long as I can remember eating there.  

Pak Ban likes to go there late afternoon and stay there until late evening. It’s the right timing to chill out at this place. With its open concept, you can sit there for hours gazing at the sea. While you’re eating and chatting, the sea breeze whiffs in. Angin sepoi-sepoi bahasa…makin laju tangan menyuap makanan.

Lai Katong – All time favorite! Sambal dia pergh meleleh!

Extra Veggie Fritters (sayur salut tepung) – Crispy

Siakap Stim Lime – Yummy

Butter Prawn – Different from the usual butter prawn dish, different cooking style

Sotong Goreng Tepung

Telur Dadar – Even this simple dish is yummy

Kangkung Goreng Belacan

Sayur Campur

Jus Nenas, Milo Ais, Jus Mangga – Very pure, Kelapa Thai

Everything was tasty! Makan sampai tersandaq!....to be continued.
