My brother in-law and his family were putting a night at the Resort, and he took a Suite room for his family. Let me share some photos of the room...

Once you enter the Suite room, you will see the Living Hall (with TV) separated from the bedroom, beside the living hall there was a small dining area.

Ban Heong Seng Restaurant at Johor Bahru

Ban Heong Seng (万香城) Restaurant (N1 29.018 E103 43.282) is located at Jalan Tahar, Johor Bahru. Which is opposite the Danga Bay and beside the Singgah Selalu Food Court of Johor Bahru.
This restaurant is special with their Beggar Chicken or Duck and you cannot just walk and dine in, you have to pre book the place and your dishes at least 1 days in advance. Because they're operate in the old single storey bunglow house, and they only have about 4-5 tables...

Ban Heong Seng Restaurant

We did our order for the foods for our Saturday dinner. Once all of us there, the dishes continuously served on our table...

The Signature Dish : Beggar Duck (we tried the duck instead of chicken)

Follow by the Deep Fried Boneless Fish...
Actually they made the fish became the fish cake and put it back nicely. So it was boneless!

Forgot the name of the soup above, some kind of melon soup...

 Vegetables

Signature Dish - Bean Curd (Taofu)

It was a Nice dinner! The Beggar Duck was Delicious! The Fish was special and nice! The Melon Soup was just right for the taste, vegetables was average and the Bean Curd was Crunchy & Yummy!
Overall, I like the Herbal taste of the Beggar Duck very much!

Beside that, we were having our dinner peacefully in the restaurant even it was a residential because we were the Only table that moment and others were left...

Some of the dishes were cooked for 8 hours and that's one of the reason we need to order in advance.

The Damage : MYR140.00 for 5 adults and 2 children included drinks. Reasonable isn't it?!

Rated : 4.7/5
We will be back again!

Strongly recommended if you want to taste the Beggar Chicken or Duck.

Wall Street On FIRE! @ Wall Street Restaurant & Bar

This party event was held on Nov 2010 at Wall Street Restaurant and Bar. This was also my first time witness the Bar Counter On Fire!

Before the party begin...everything was normal at the bar

I was there quite early that night, and I saw all the preparation of the party. The crowd was ok that time...around 8pm.

The Bartenders were busy preparing the Cocktail...

Mr Arab was preparing the performance of the night...

I'm really attracted by this big bowl of Ice with Full of cocktail test tubes! It was colourful!!

The bowl of Ice with test tube Cocktails...


Vincent Yang (Bartender from Shanghai) preparing the dry ice...

After all the preparation, the customers getting more and more...everyone was anxiously waiting for the Party! Once the clock hit 10pm, the party began! Wall Street On FIRE!

At First, Vincent lighted up one side of the Volcano! The other side was help by the other bartender...

Arab was controlling the Fire which burn through the Bar Counter...!

The Flame of the Volcano!

The Bar was burn up less than 3 second! That time, we Only see Fire on the Bar Counter and Arab & Vincent trying to play some fire tricks on the background!

After the first show, Vincent started the fireworks on THAT bowl of Cocktail! The atmosphere was brought to the highest at that moment! Everyone was excited and voices of congratulation - "Yeah" at every corner!

The bowl of Cocktail test tubes was lighted up with fireworks!


It was BEAUTIFUL!!

Once the fire over, the test tubes were given to all the customers in the bar F.O.C. Well, you can't drink it too fast, because they were Strong & Dangerous! Haha!

Even the fireworks was over from the bar counter, but the customers continue to light up the rest and play with it! WOW! That was really NICE! Everyone Like it very much!

The Bar was FULL of smoke just like we were all at Cameron Highlands! Haha!

Once the ventilation system started, the smoke was gone in second!


That night was actually A Farewell party for the Shanghai Famous Bartender - Mr Vincent Yang. He went back to Shanghai on the next day and I believe MANY women MISS him very much! Haha! Because he made the Perfect Cocktail for us and we miss him too!
