Nyonya Treats Restaurant at Taman Perling, Johor Bahru.

Nyonya Treats Restaurant (N1.48338 E103.68017) is located along Jalan Simbang of Taman Perling, diagonally opposite the Pizza Hut of Tmn Perling. It’s about 15KM from Causeway and 25KM from Second Link.

The restaurant has a nice decor and cozy ambience, but limited seating area. It’s advise to make a reservation if you going to dine in during weekend evening.

While we stepped into the restaurant just like a time portal, the retro design with the touch of Peranakan atmosphere is a reminiscent of those golden days. The restaurant is fully air-conditioned and is a good place for family dining and friends gathering.

We (total of 3 families) visited the restaurant on one of the Saturday evening and let me share with you the delicious foods we had in the restaurant. We ordered three types of fish, three types of veggie and others.

1)  Nyonya Assam Fish
2)  Nyonya Fish Head Curry
3)  Deep Fried Slice of Fish with ginger and garlic
4)  Nyonya Chap Chai (Mixed vegetables)
5)  Sambal Petai (bitter or stink bean)
6)  Stir Fried Long Bean with Prawns
7)  Cincalok Omelette
8)  Chicken Pongteh

The above dishes were catered for 6 adults and 3 children.

The Nyonya Assam fish taste sour and spicy, and the sourish and spicy level were balanced and satisfied. The portion was just nice and not over served.

As usual, the fish head curry served with piping hot and delicious! The flesh was flavorful and pleasingly firm, curry was rich really goes well with the plain rice, you shouldn’t miss this if you are a curry lover.

This was the dish specially for the children. The slice of deep fried fish served with dried ginger, garlic and bean paste. It was sweet with fragrance of the bean paste gravy. The children were happily enjoyed the fish till empty.

The Nyonya chap chai is one of the must order dish for every Nyonya restaurant we visit, the reason is because the dish is the Nyonya authentic homecook dish. The chap chai was well prepared and the taste was just perfect, but the portion was rather small…

The petai was fresh and the special made sambal went well with it. The sambal had a balanced sweet and spicy taste that made us can’t stop enjoying it.

This dish is not really a Nyonya dish, it’s available easily at most of the Chinese restaurant within Malaysia. The long bean was not overly fried, provided some crunchy bites and the prawns were fresh!

This is another dish we will order while visiting a Nyonya restaurant. The Cincalok omelette was served with nice fragrance and taste just nice, not salty at all. The children had it happily.

The Ayam Pongteh is an authentic dish from Baba Nyonya, we won’t miss to enjoy this meal on every Nyonya restaurant we visited within Malaysia. And in Nyonya Treats Restaurant, the chicken was well prepared and cooked to perfection. The meats were tender and easily drop from bone while you bite on it. The dish is cook with bean paste and potatoes, it had the strong taste of the sweet bean paste in the chicken…

Nyonya Treats Restaurant serve varieties of Nyonya foods, and the above dishes we tried were satisfied. Beside, the prices also reasonable. The total bill for the savory dishes we had was around RM180.00 included drinks (for 6 adults and 3 children).

It is a another good restaurant to having a nice Nyonya food within Johor Bahru area, we having our dinner there after the children’s fun from the Legoland. It’s another good choice for those who want to dine in after the whole day activities at the Theme Park.

Do drop by the restaurant if you happen to be around at Taman Perling, and I believe you will like it even you are not the fan of Nyonya food. 🙂

The Little Big Club in Puteri Harbour Family Theme Park at Nusajaya, Johor.

The Little Big Club in Puteri Harbour Family Theme Park is located beside Puteri Harbour and Traders Hotel Nusajaya, Johor. The theme park is open for public since few years ago, and only until now we had a chance to visit it.
We decided to visit The Little Big Club instead of Sanrio Hello Kitty Town because of my daughter prefer Barney than Hello Kitty. Anyway, it’s very much depends on the children…and this theme park is 100% design for children. 🙂

The Little Big Club is located on the 2nd and 3rd floor in the Theme Park building. As for the ticket price, you can refer to their official website for time-to-time promotion.
Once you get your ‘ring’, we proceeded to the entrance of the park…

We watched most of the show (2nd floor) in the Theme Park, it was really fun and the children were really happy when they saw their childhood idols came up to the stage…

 photo IMG_2135_zps44a09f33.jpg

 photo IMG_2149_zps93988653.jpg

And the most welcome – Barney and friends!

 photo IMG_2199_zps5eb9ab9e.jpg

 photo IMG_2205_zps7dac39d1.jpg

We spent almost 4-5 hours there until the theme park close at 6pm, the last show on stage was all the superstar! And I heard the children streaming too! Haha!

 photo IMG_2255_zpsb82921b9.jpg

After the last show, you can take photos with your favorite characters one-by-one with your own camera and also their professional photographer in the theme park. But…it was only limited time, be hurry if you want to take photo with all the favorite characters in The Little Big Club.

It’s really a good theme park for family and children (age 3-12), where you can see the joyful moment and the non-stop laughter all the time! It was a priceless moment to me and my family! Worth the ticket prices!

 photo IMG_2237_zps475abdfb.jpg

Unless the children do not know the characters in the theme park, or else they will be very happy and enjoy themselves! Some of my friends asked me about the park…actually I shouldn’t be the one to rate the park, let the children do the talking! And their laughter in the park already proved how good the park is…

The last session while we exit the park, the route guide us through a souvenirs centre where you can buy all kinds of toys for your children.

 photo IMG_2112_zpsa34996a9.jpg

It’s also a nice place for weekend city escape from Johor Bahru, the traveling time from JB city to the theme park is only around 30-40 minutes. For more info and ticket price, please refer from their official website (the URL below).
