Back to Klang in the afternoon. Once reached Klang, bf's hp rang non-stop. Every one is asking him to go their house pai nian. =.=ll At night, after dinner, I followed bf to go to one of his friend's house. Guess what are we doing there besides than eat, drink, watching TV and chit chat?? Yes, we are gambling. The most important activity during CNY. =P

Playing Blackjack

Yeah~ This is the second year I'm gamble. =P Previously, I never gamble at all. Cause I'm not from a family of gamblers. Dad not allowing us to gamble although we're playing for fun without gambling any monies. But, as my opinion, gambling once a year is not a big deal. =D

Chu 4 - Famous Delicacy of Teluk Intan

Ya, I know.. I'm a bit out dated. Keep posting back dated post on CNY although the festival is over for quite some time. Anyway, who cares!! That's my blog. I like to blog whenever I want. =P

Basically, nothing much to do on the forth day of CNY and this time I want to share about Teluk Intan local food that I must eat when ever I'm back to my hometown. =D


Leaning Tower

Let me introduce myself briefly once again. I'm from Teluk Intan, a small town in Perak. The main attraction of the town is the Leaning Tower (Menara Condong). The tower was built in the year 1885 by a Chinese contractor, Leong Choon Cheong and was originally used as a water tank to store portable water during dry season for the people living nearby. The reason why the tower leans is because the tower was built on the soft ground, as well as the weight of the water in the water tank causes it to lean towards the southwest.  

The huge clock

It is also used as a time keeper of the town as there is a huge clock on top of the tower. The tower also served as a beacon to guide ships into Teluk Intan Port. Currently it is a local tourist attraction, and no longer stores water. The area around the tower was paved with bricks and become a plaza. The main street at the centre of Teluk Intan, Jalan Ah Cheong, is named after Leong Choon Cheong to commemorate his contribution.

Become a plaza with attraction of tourists. 

Colorful lights

One of the famous delicacy in Teluk Intan is the "Chee Cheong Fun", a variation of Kueh Teow containing turnip, deep fried aromatic shallots and crispy deep fried dried shrimps. In order to earn more money from those outstation people, the price is getting more expensive from year to year, especially during CNY. A friend of mine told me that, the price had increase to RM4.20 per packet. @_@ Once the price is going up, it will not goes down anymore. It's so damn sucking blood for the local people. While as for KL people, they might think that it is still consider very cheap. If compared with KL "Chee Cheong Fun", it is definitely different. The specialty of Teluk Intan "Chee Cheong Fun" is must eat with green assorted dried chili. Trust me, it is very yummy-licious!! =D Do you believe that I can wallop 2 - 3 packets?? If I'm hungry. Hehe.. =P

Next is Mee Rebus. You can get Mee Rebus every where in Teluk Intan. But, do you know where to get a delicious Mee Rebus? Many of my hometown friends will recommend Ah Wah Mee Rebus, as they said Ah Wah Mee Rebus is the best if compared to other place in Teluk Intan. But, as for me, I'm not prefer their Mee Rebus. Hmm, I don't know why. Maybe it is not my taste. =D I'm more prefer the Mee Rebus that sold at a small stall which is located along Jalan Sungai Nibong.  But unfortunately, the Mee Rebus stall has been closed down due to the increasing age of the owner. Anyway, I found another nice Mee Rebus in Anson Town Kopitiam, which is located inside the Anson Industrial Park.

Mee Rebus with crispy crackers

Mee Rebus is basically a boiled noodle dish served with a moderately spicy and sweet gravy; as well as crispy type of crackers. The crackers are simply mixed with flour and other ingredients, lastly deep fried it. Not forgetting to squeeze the Limau Kasturi into the sauce and mixed around before eating it. It is definitely very appetizing once you have your first bite on it. =D



It's really very tired after had a great walk in Tua Pek Kong Temple in the afternoon. Therefore, mom didn't cook for dinner. Cracking head, don't know where to go for dinner. After rounding in the town for few times, finally we decided to have our dinner at Grandcourt City Restaurant, which is located at Jalan Maharajalela, Off Jalan Padang Tembak.


Once we stepped in to the restaurant, it's full and packed with people. We seated there for quite some time but there's still no one come and clean up the table that we seated. No one take order for us. Oh~ my >_< Can you imagine that the restaurant just has few staffs working during CNY?? After requested for few times, then only got staff come and take order for us. We need to wait for an hour for the food being served =.=ll

Yee Sang

"Yee Sang" in Cantonese or "Yu Sheng" in Mandarin (鱼生) is a must dish during CNY.  The name of "Yee Sang" or "Yu Sheng" has the word rhymes with 'birth' in Chinese. As you know, Chinese like to give an auspicious names to dishes, especially on such a big occasion especially on Lunar New Year. In Chinese, "Yu Sheng" is interpreted as (余升) an increase in abundance.  

Huat~
While in Cantonese, it's known as "Lo Hei" (捞起), families and friends get together at the dining table, stand up and toss the shredded ingredients into the air with chopsticks by saying various auspicious wishes loudly. The higher you toss, the merrier it will be. But some folks are too excited while tossing the "Yee Sang" and it might dropped on the table or even on your arms. Anyway, Chinese believes that those shredded vegetables that dropped out on the table is very auspicious. =D

Mixed vegetables

Sweet & Sour Pork

Fried Sesame Chicken

Clay Pot Spicy Fish

A simple dinner of the day with "Yee Sang", Mixed vegetables, Sweet & Sour Pork, Fried Sesame Chicken & Clay Pot Spicy Fish. Overall is ok, yummy and delicious. Worth for us to wait for an hour for the food. =D

Chu 3 - No.1 Luo Han Guo Stall

After sweating like mad during the tour in Tua Pek Kong Temple, we heading to the last destination of the day which is No.1 Luo Han Guo Stall. It is just nice to have a cooling dessert or ais kacang to quench our thirst.


In such a hot weather, No.1 Luo Han Guo Stall is the best option to go. It is located at Jalan Sekolah, which is just beside Anson Hotel and as well as my secondary school, SMK Convent Teluk Intan. The vendor hawker serves varieties of desserts and food. 



Hawaii @ RM3.50

No.1 Luo Han Guo is selling Luo Han Guo, Hawaii Ais Kacang, Coco Crunch, Fruit ABC, Jelly Man Tau Long, Ais Kacang Buah and the best seller - LengciKang. Food wise such as Laksa, Mee Rebus, Rojak Buah and Mee Kicap which is sell at affordable price. Really missed it when I'm back to KL because I can't get any cheaper food compared with my hometown. =D

Ais Kacang @ RM3.50

It's really nice to have such a cooling dessert to quench off my thirst in such a hot weather. Used to go to this vendor hawker stall during my childhood time, no matter after school or after shopping with family. Once again, I'm really enjoyed my day with my lovely family and friends during CNY. Cheers~!! ^_*



After our seafood lunch, we heading to the century-old temple in Pasir Panjang, Perak. The more than 100-year-old Tua Pek Kong Temple at Pasir Panjang has become a popular tourist attraction in the Manjung district. More details below:-





Nestled among kampung houses close to the coast at Pasir Panjang, the temple occupies a plot of land donated by its Chinese owners. The main attraction drawing crowds of local and out-of-town visitors are 98 statues of deities and animals from the Chinese lunar calendar on the well-landscaped three-hectare compound. There are also 11 statues measuring between 2.1m and 14.6m in height on a broad-based, two-metre high classical facade facing the sea. 





Taking centre stages is the gigantic Da Bo Gong statue, along with statues of Jiu Tian Xuan Nu, Yu Nu, Guan Yin Niang Niang, Jin Tong, Wu Guan, Wen Guan, Qian Li Yan, Ma Zu, Shun Feng Er and Hu Ye. Below there statues, on the cement courtyard, are 24 smaller statues of various Chinese demigods who are said to have mystical powers. 



All the statues were made from granite-like material imported from China. Some of the larger statues were cut up and shipped in pieces, and later assembled by masons arriving from China. Millions of ringgit have been spent to upgrade the temple and its grounds, which has the potential of becoming a major tourist attraction in Perak. 












It is a common sight to have large groups of visitors from near and far busily snapping photos and making video recordings of the sights in and around the temple. The crowds swell on weekends and holidays, with people coming by the busloads, as well as other mode of transport. Leaflets made available to the public tell an intriguing story of events that happened at the Tua Pek Kong temple. 










There is also a nearby monkey park with a concrete path leading to the mangroves forest. Many people also visit the temple to take in this fascinating sight. The temple is open to visitors until 10pm daily. 














Last minute plan to Tua Pek Kong Temple makes us walk around under the hot sun till everyone is getting sun burned. The weather is too hot and it does not allows us to finish the whole tour in the temple. The best recommendation time is around 4pm onward. Anyway, I will be back visiting this temple again!! Last but not least, I really enjoyed my day with my lovely family and friends. Cheers~!!
