Saturday Outing │ Wan Lee Heng • Sido Mampir • Qimi Car Wash!

Saturday Outing!

It was a quiet Saturday morning and we actually planned to stay home the entire home. However we suffered from option paralysis as we scrolled the innumerable choices available on the Grab food app and we decided to drive out to lunch instead.

We rode an elevator down to BiBi at the fourth floor and made our way to the general area of Chow Kit. With provisions needing replenishment and BiBi in need of a shower this would be an excellent launch pad.

We parked in front of Wan Lee Heng Cash & Carry situated along Lengkok Raja Laut and began our shopping there. We made away with tidbits and other provisions for a grand total of RM142.10 (approximately USD33/EUR29) that was stowed away in BiBi.

We then walked a short distance to an Indonesian restaurant called Sido Mampir as we missed our time in Jakarta. Here we ordered the:

Rawon Daging for the both of us
Plain Omelette
2 plates of White Rice
Iced Nescafe
Iced Lemon Tea

Our excellent and nostalgic Javanese lunch came to RM32.55 (approximately USD8/EUR7).

As we left Sido Mampir we stopped by the biscuit shop In Hua Bee and got several varieties of Mung Bean biscuits for RM15.00 (approximately USD4/EUR3).

We then made our way back to BiBi and made a loop around Chow Kit before ending up at Qimi Car Wash. A wash and vacuum session cost RM20.00 (approximately USD5/EUR4), and we were impressed that they took they time to care for BiBi.

Before leaving Qimi Car Wash I placed an order to pick up two regular-sized pizzas from Domino's for an irresistible price of RM38.90 (approximately USD9/EUR8). We then drove a short distance then collected the pizzas. As I sat and waited while Cat went to pick up the pizzas a man came up to the window with an vague request for money. Fearing an attempt at 'pukau' (inducing a trance) we quickly left the place and headed home.

We will be headed north to an old tin mining town next week, so please stay tuned!
