EATING RICE BURGER IN JEJU

We were told by our guide, Miss Sakinah Omar, that another halal food that we could try in Jeju was bab (rice) burger. It looked like a burger, except the buns were replaced by rice that was formed in the shape of buns. While, the patty inside would be variety of  filling. As for us, we chose, squid in meshed chilies. So for Muslim travelers, you definitely have to choose the right filling to go with your rice, which should be something definitely from the seafood family.

The squid actually tasted so much like our local "sambal sotong" so I had somehow enjoyed my dinner. I guess if you are having a Korean as a guest at home, he/she will have no problem eating any dish with meshed chilies.

I also bought the seafood  triangle rice cake, known as Onigiri in Japan, but I did not know what it is called in Korea.

WALKING AROUND THE RED BRICK WAREHOUSE IN YOKOHAMA

[DAY 4] 5th June 2014 ~ The next destination is Red Brick Warehouse, another must-visit site in Yokohama. The buildings were warehouses built for Yokohama harbour using red bricks, hence the name. And this place was big. I was expecting a museum but it was already converted into a commercial centre with shops, restaurants, boutiques, to name a few.

So we just walked around, took photos and lingered a bit near the waterfront. We tried to enjoy the gloomy scenery and stopped for our lunch which was a packet of onigiri but surprisingly enough to fill the starving tummy. There were big black clouds in the sky and it started raining after that, forcing us to use our umbrellas and poncho, and walk quickly to our next stop.

BLOGGING FROM KLIA

MH089 safely landed at KLIA at about 4:30 p.m. It was a long journey. I checked out from the hotel in Hashimoto at 4:30 a.m. so I could get on the first train to Minami Osawa Station and catch the bus to Narita Airport at 5:50 a.m. The plane took off at 10:30 a.m. as scheduled.

After using the toilet where water was in abundance, I went to get my "teh tarik" at the airport food court. Too bad, "roti canai" was not available so that had to wait. I am now waiting for my next flight to bring me home to JB.

The holiday is almost over. There is a pile of exam papers to be marked and I just cannot wait to start work again, as if. *sigh*
