MY (ONLY) TANJUNG BALAI GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE


6th FEBRUARY 2019 ~ We went to this restaurant twice for lunch for the two days we were in Tanjung Balai. Nurhayati Restaurant was located right opposite Darul Karim Mosque and from outside, so we hopped in instantly.


There were many other Malay/Muslim restaurants in town but do not be surprised to see there are Chinese praying altars in the shops. This is because the owners of the premise could be a Chinese and restaurant operators were renting the place.



lunch day #1
Not only the people spoke the same language like Malaysians, but the food also tasted the same.

We had a long chat with the cook (and the restaurant owner), Mr. Muhammad Noor, who was very friendly. He had worked in Johor before and we managed to get some tips of where to go and what to do (which he honestly informed there was not much actually).



lunch day #2
I found the prices of the food was slightly high, especially for lunch on the second day, which cost us about 100 000 Rupiah for two people (equals to RM30). We did not have much gastronomic adventure though as the hotel provided lunch as well in the package and we were only staying in Tanjung Balai for one night.
