DINNER, SUPPER AND BREAKFAST WITH A VISITOR - PART TWO

   25TH MAY 2023    ~ When the visitor was feeling a bit under the weather and requested to have soup for dinner, the place to take him was ZZ Sup Tulang. I was glad the request was fulfilled and my friend was ready to be on the move.

That night, we went to Pasar Karat in the heart of Johor Bahru city and with all the walking, the tummy needed to be filled again. We stopped for chapati at a restaurant near the hotel for supper.

   26TH MAY 2023    ~ The gastronomic adventure continued the next day for breakfast. As I was taking Mr. Zaman to visit my place, so I took him to a restaurant near Kampung Melayu Market to get the morning dose of Nasi Lemak.

I just hope he enjoyed the food served at the places that I took him to throughout his stay in town.

PRE-RAMADAN GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE WITH FRIENDS FROM SHAH ALAM

 

1ST APRIL 2022 ~ Mr. Ridwan Abd. Wahid, a friend of UPM TESL class of 1993, with his wife and daughter, were back in town. I had the chance to play tourist guide again and the eating place chosen for our early dinner was ZZ Sup Tulang which I had not taken them there before.

Foods on the table were aplenty - rice, noodles, soup, and even egg banjo, and that should be something to savour before the Ramadan arrived in two days when Muslims would have to fast. They had traveled all the way from Shah Alam so the gastronomic rendezvous should worth the time and effort.

I guess they must have enjoyed their dinner but my job as a tourist guide would be continued a few hours after that.

THE SECOND DINNER DATE AND THIS TIME AT SUP TULANG ZZ

The plan to have dinner for the second night was successfully executed. Initially we wanted to go to this food court at Tepian Tebrau but I found that many stalls were not operating. The last minute switch was Sup Tulang ZZ which was not that far from the first aforementioned place and a spot I am familiar with.

It was the local Laksa Johor for my ex-classmate of SMS Muar and a bowl of beef soup for me, while we continued updating ourselves of the latest development happening around us as well as our other ex-classmates.

Thanks my friend for the time and company but all good things must come to an end. It was time to bid farewell to a dear old friend and hopefully we will get the opportunity to meet up again some other time. 

WHEN AN OLD FRIEND FROM PUTRAJAYA IS IN TOWN AGAIN

An ex-coursemate of UPM TESL class of 1993 is in town for three days for work-related matter. Puan Wan Aisyah Haris is here again for his inspectorate work so as usual, we decided to meet up for dinner.

The place chosen was Sup Tulang ZZ, one of the well-known eating places in the city. There was just a small crowd when we arrived.  I had been here three times before (I think). A group of busking musicians were performing live at the restaurant to entertain the customers while they were enjoying their food.

Thanks Puan Wan Aisyah for the time and company and hope that your liked the Mee Rebus Johor at this place. Hopefully there will be more gastronomic sessions in the future so I could recommend other food and eating places in Johor Bahru.

A DINNER DATE WITH AN OLD FRIEND FROM COLLEGE

I got to know an old friend from my UPM TESL class was in town when I was still in the taxi on my way home. (I was in Melaka for a 3-day course). A dinner date was set and I took Puan Hannah Sheikh Mokhtar to Restoran ZZ Sup Tulang  (translate: ZZ Bone Soup Restaurant?). 
 

 

It was just a short date and Puan Hannah would already be going back tomorrow evening but I was glad to be able to see her. Hope she enjoyed the local Mee Rebus of Johor as well as the other western dish ordered after the first dish.
