KT Day 2 │ Lim Sian Tian • Eja Corner • Seng Huat!

Batu Buruk and Beyond!

We picked you up again after coming back from breakfast and running errands.

We spent the next few hours productively as Cat and I continued to focus on our respective chores and before we knew it lunchtime was upon us. Brendan chose to continue sleeping at the rest house so we drove out without him.

We drove out to quickly discover almost all eateries were closed for Friday prayers. We eventually ended up at Batu Buruk and found a row of food stalls behind the Kuala Terengganu Aquatic Centre. We parked BiBi and chose the nearest food stall which happened to be Eja Corner.

The food stall offered a myriad of seafood based cuisine so we settled on:

Fried Yellow Noodles
Fried Rice Vermicelli
12 sticks of Keropok Lekor
1 Ikan Celup Tepung
2 Coconut drinks
1 Coconut Shake

for a total of RM44.00 (approximately USD10/EUR9).

Lunch out of the way we then made our way to Seng Huat Electrical to meet up with Ben. Top on our list was a 26" industrial stand fan, and in the end we made away with:

Phison Industrial Stand Fan PSF-6260
Karcher Wet and Dry Vacuum Cleaner WD 1
iSonic Stainless Steel Kettle IJK-1803

for a grand total of RM600.00 (approximately USD140/EUR124).

We then made our way back to the home, deposited our electrical goodies then made our way back to the rest house for a quick shower and change of clothes. Twenty minutes later we were out the door and walked back to the home where we unpacked our boxes of electrical goodies. Cat got the ball rolling by unboxing her vacuum cleaner and began using it around the ground floor to her heart's content. The upstairs is an entirely other matter, and we hoped to engage a day maid to help with cleaning, mopping and wiping the windows upstairs.

At the same time I began assembling the massive 26" inch industrial stand fan. After a few hiccups I managed to get the behemoth of a fan installed and we enjoyed the breeze that its massive blades produced. Even at its lowest speed of 1 the breeze was powerful, we cannot even imagine it at its highest setting of 3!

We then spent the next few hours working, me at the laptop and Cat at the washing machine as we both got a ton of work done.

In that time Brendan woke up and ordered McDonalds with the Grab food app. I then cut my finger on the condensed milk can so Brendan ran over to the FamilyMart along Jalan Pejabat to get a small bottle of Dettol and bandages. Later in the evening he went to FamilyMart then ZUS Coffee for some grub and drinks. All this was off-camera, so you can only take our word for it. The home is turning out to be a very strategic place to stay!

We eventually left the home at a quarter past nine and then met up with our neighbour Ng and we started chatting. Then another neighbour Heng joined us and by the time we got back to the rest house it was already past 10:00pm.

We're having an authentic Terengganu breakfast experience, so please stay tuned!
