Tanjung Tanjung Sepat!!!

Last Saturday, we decided to go somewhere… sometimes, both of us do have this type of urge, just to drive to somewhere, far far away…
So, I suggested Tanjung Sepat… I read about this place, from MAS “Going Places”, this July’s issue, while I went to Bali… well… since I’ve always thought that we’re all very ignorant of places for a short leisure in our own country... we decided to give it a go...

After searching for some information on the internet, we headed for our "excursion" on Saturday...

After nearly 2 hours of driving... Klang --> Banting --> Morib --> Kundang --> Tanjung Sepat...

Upon reaching near Tangjung Sepat area, there's a sign board that says "lover bridge"... nah!! I don't know where it gets its name from... however, it helps to give us some direction...

There're 2 main restaurant there, a smaller one on the outer side, and further inside, there's this "love bridge restaurant"... at first, we actually stepped foot into the "lover bridge restaurant", however, it feels a little bit empty for such a bit restaurant... so, we came out to go to the slightly more "rundown" restaurant next to it... oops... I can't remember the restaurant name...

Ehem... now... what to order?
we called upon the restaurant owner, ask him what to eat... below is the conversation...
it took place with the language medium called "mandarin"... (but I translate it to english)
"boss, what's your recommendation??", said we
"it's up to you, people come here for seafood, anything with seafood," answered him
(as I saw some of the other guests ordered some clams... nice big fat clams)
"can we have the clams in soup??" - done!! that's 1 order
next...
"what type of fish do you have today??", asked my husband...
the boss mentioned some names... and we picked something that we're familiar with, ie. promphret!!
"how do you cook it??", said we...
"normal-steamed, teochew-steamed, thai-steamed...", said the boss...
"what about thai-steamed??", I asked...
"nobody actually go for thai-steamed, usually people opt for the normal-steamed"... said the boss..
"ok, give me teochew-steamed then"... said I, so, the boss took down the 2nd order... @_@
"any vegetable you have??", asked I...
"xxx, yyy, zzz, nnn, mmm, ppp", said the boss...
(at the same time I was planning to pick one not-so-normal vege to be cooked with the not-so-normal style, which I always do, for eg. bean curd sauce with pokchoy!! ^_^V... so, I was thinking... and I missed what he's said)
"sorry, can you please say again??", I asked, and I looked towards my husband... oops... not so good...
so, I picked the conventional vege... ~_~, ya, he looked slightly relieved...
that was the 3rd order...

Then... we're thinking what to order for the 4th dish...
my husband asked me how to say crayfish in mandarin... ya, I can't recall... it's just CRAY-FISH!!!
luckily, the boss who's taking the order manage to figure what we're trying to "try to order"... he said it in hokkien... that rang a bell to my husband... ("hay ko bak", ha!!)
"how do you cook it?", asked I (not again!!!!! hahaha!!)
"gong-bou style!", said the boss...
but then...
"do you do it in sweet and sour?", asked I... *_* (ghee!!)
"nobody does that in this manner", said the boss...
"just give me in sweet and sour style!!", said I...
that's our 4th order...

when the boss left our table..
he looked at me, said, "he warned you!!"...
ya ya ya....
I asked him if HE'll normally order what people suggest to him... nah!!
ok.. then, I'll just have to bear with my OWN choice...

ps: In fact, I never really take the chance to find out what the "lover bridge" is called "lover bridge"... however, sigh... we're just not good at packaging and promoting stories!! ^_^ since the bridge is called the "lover bridge", if I'm the restaurant owner, I'll put some railings at the end of the bridge, and start to tell story like, if couples, or lovers go there, write their name on a padlock, lock the padlock on the railing, their love will be stronger, and well... diplomatically saying, "forever" ^_^... hahaha, the more expensive the padlock is, the more solid your wish will become, isn't it?? ah ha!!! then I can start selling padlock around the corner... come on!! it's good business opportunity ok!!

there you go...

When we returned from Tanjung Sepat... we went to Bkt. Tinggi, Klang... to catch for the second time "The Dark Knight"!! ^_^ Yay!!
and we'd a nice cup of afternoon coffee.. in DOME... ^_~
