Terengganu Day 3 – Sate at Jabi
We went out of town, and en route back to Kuala Terengganu, we stopped by a sate / satay place at Jabi called Sate Lanang. The chicken satay is pretty decent. The beef was a bit tough, I’d recommend sticking to chicken if you have problems chewing. I tried this drink called Air Nira kelapa,…

Terengganu Day 1 – Departure
Singapore seems to have an on and off direct flight relationship and this time around, it’s an off. So we had to go via KL instead. The cheapest options were Air Asia and Malaysia Airlines (MAS). Budget or full fledged airline? Definitely full-fledged is the way to go. MAS also has this scheme where one…

Terengganu Day 1
So the last trip was 8 years ago, back in 2009. It was a very rushed trip, on the bus 😦 This time round, I was determined to take the plane instead. So here’s to a better start!
