9th AUGUST 2023 ~ The group's gastronomic adventure of the evening was carried out at Satay Teluk Mahkota. It was customary for all the teachers of the Johor Bahru Chess Team teacher to have dinner together on the second day of the stay during the 3-day competition.
The main attraction of the place was of course the satay [barbecued marinated meat skewed through coconut sticks]. There were varieties of meat available: beef, mutton, chicken, rabbit and even venison. There was also other food available if you think you wanted to eat something else. The satay was something that I would be coming back for if I were to go there again.
I was given a present during dinner, something like an early retirement gift. Initially this should be some kind of pre-retirement farewell dinner [for me] but it didn't look or feel like one.
We actually went to the beach after dinner, just to see the nearby chalets/homestays. The place was actually too dark and not much we could do there but still, we felt like teenagers going on a school trip.
