now, im in Indonesia, just reunion with my friend from Malaysia, we went to lily bistro rest, i like this place, coz the environment so nice for chill and hang-out for hours.. hehe, some more, im not talking with her for a years, so we sat there for 2 and half hours, till they closed ;p

but then my journey start again xD hahaha, i go for supper.
one of the famous foods from Indonesia; nasi padang. this foods originally from Padang, Indonesia. But, now a days, a lot of Indonesian people going to overseas, specially for studies and working. Start from there, they build a restaurant, base from their (Indonesia) taste, which is spicy. And, nasi padang became so famous, specially in Singapore and Malaysia (coz iv been there before). A lot of muslim will choose/eat nasi padang on their fasting month (hari raya/idull fitri/lebaran). Even in IKEA Singapore got special counter for nasi padang ;)..
how to order nasi padang?
you can choose the foods from the counter, then they will give you a small plate of that. then you will get a small bowl of water, and, please don’t drink that. coz its for u to clean your fingers (after or before you eat). so, enjoy your foods, and pay after you finish (but its depend on the restaurants). they will calculate from how many you eat from the small plates. so, make it clean, if not, you must pay for the whole plate.
then, today (or to night i can say) i went to nasi padang rest, coz in here, nasi padang is open 24 hours. hahaha, but i cant eat spicy foods, so, this opinion based from others ;) hehehe.. they said this rest is one of the famous and nice place to eat nasi padang, they have been in this place/street for a years.

and i like the situation in this area (melaka sentral), because its not like at puduraya (crowded, hot, not sure which bus you will jump-in, coz at pudu maybe you can be transfered to another -don't know which- bus)
