Pengerang/Shopping Tour Photos - 15 Nov 2009

In the early morning of 15 Nov 2009 at 6am,  Kim was doing her final roll count before departing for our 1 day Pengerang shopping tour.

First stopover at Taman Sentosa for our sumptuous breakfast.

Shopping spree started immediately after the breakfast....cheong aar.....

Their famous Lao Po Bing 老婆饼...good buy, best buy, must buy!!

Next, Tien Hau Kong Temple...to wish for good health, good luck, Huat ah!

After wishing for good, we proceed to Ostrich Farm.

Some Nutritional facts about Ostrich meat (chart below). Look at the ostrich's egg yolk. One ostrich egg is equal to approximate 2 dozen chicken eggs. It is a little sweeter and fluffier than chicken eggs but tastes almost the same. They are lower in cholesterol and healthier than chicken eggs. The egg yolk is deep yellow-orange colour.

The ostrich's egg is able to withstand our weight!

Ostrich Satay, Ostrich Burger, Ostrich Egg Omelette, Ostrich Bak Ku Teh......yummy??

Zhen, how's the Ostrich meat satay?

We have Lobster meal for lunch at one of the famous sea-food "GOOD LUCK" restaurant!

Deep fried Lobsters, chilli crabs, poach fresh fish, and more......

After our sumptuous lunch, we proceed to Desaru Fruit Farm.
