Asli Restaurant
4:12 PM
All the while My bestie knows I love seafood a lot, and I hunt seafood a lot in this Singa Land... So Last weekend she had brought me to a famous + nice + cheap restaurant in a very rural asli village in JB. At first I thought both of us can just take cab instead of trouble her brother to bring us to the place, but I changed my mind when I was on my way to this place... ITS TOOOOO SCARY DARK... feel will be kidnaped anytime. LOL
When we arrived the village, the brother told us Never Ever go to the first restaurant in front. It called "Alam Restaurant" 蓝海湾.. Because their price is damn expensive compare with the Asli Restaurant and the food are just so so...
When we arrived the restaurant, there comes few escort bringing us into the restaurant. Of cause is orang asli... hahhaa

Asli Restaurant
Spotted the very cute crab at the entrance~ take a picture first ^^
Mr Crabbie says Hi, Please enjoy me~ LOL
Kam Hiong Crabbie RM36
Indonesia Prawn! RM20
Damn Good! Recommended
Shi Ban fish. They called it as Kelapu RM56
I personally recommend the Indonesia Prawn here. Taste different from other seafood. The Kam Hiong Crab for the crab itself, its not very big compare to the one I had in Singapore, but its nice and they dun provide tools for eating crab cause the shell is not that hard. The fish is very fresh and, but got the "tu" smell.. Actually we ordered Oat Fried Squid, but I strongly NOT RECOMMEND you to spend $$ on this dish. LoUsy~~ hmmm... for true I say. hahaha
For this dinner, we only spent RM144.50... Cheap, right? its only about sgd60.. Thanks my sister for this very special dinner :)

DO NOT GO to this place - WE WERE ROB & FOOD IS LOUSY! Was there on 22 Oct 2014.
We were brought to this place by a local Malaysian friend and arrive there about 6pm when there is still light. 2 young children (1 small size boy & 1 chubby girl - aged between 7-10 years old) demanded for R$2 for parking & to 'take care' of our car. When we return to our car 2 hours later, (it's pitch dark) and after driving off to the main road where there is light, we realised the BACKSEAT WINDOW WAS SMASHED OPEN (it was PROFESSIONALLY DONE - the whole window was cut, smashed open & the whole piece was hidden on the floor of the backseat, boot was open from backseat & ransacked!
Our entire LUGGAGE BAGS was STOLEN - including Olympus PEN CAMERA, LAPTOP, other valuables & also ALL OUR SHOPPING BAGS.
This is a very well organised theft job:
1) The young kids that 'take care' of our car claimed ignorance. (but of course). But who else can climb thought the small backseat window & ransack the boot? It has to be someone really physically small.
2) The restaurant claim that it's a public carpark & is not liable for any losses. And they already put a sign up in their restaurant. No help at all. But also prove that theft is not unusual here that’s why they put up a sign.
3) There is no witness as it's it pitch dark parking area & so that left us with nothing we can do but to leave the place quickly before any physical harm can come to us.
DON'T TAKE THE RISK THERE!! - for both being a target of theft & food poisoning.
Before we were aware about the theft incident, we've already noted that the food was not tasty & hygiene is bad - we saw crabs being prepared on the kitchen floor. No sink nor soap to wash your hands after eating. You wash in the same toilet where other poo. People queue up to 30 mins to order food & another 30 mins for food to be served. The only thing is - it is dirt cheap. (As much dirt as on the kitchen floor).
We were already not impress with the food & the theft in the car park just left us a bad taste in the mouth. DON'T EVER GO THERE. Save yourself the troubles we had went through.
