Johor Bahru - share is caring - Part 2

These BOD KF paus, must keep them in freezer?

and when ready to cook, can use microwave to heat up instead of steam?

If you buy frozen, then you have to put in freezer.

You can use microwave to heat up, but I think the pao skin will be like rock and very dry if you microwave. Just like how you microwave a bagel.

I normally use oven not microwave oven for bagels. And steamer for paos... The moisture from the steam really relaxes the pao for you to om nom nom it

I agree, traffic around KSL (partly due to construction of the new building) and human traffic inside KSL is way too much already. Very squeezey and everywhere no space. The basement with the endless pushcarts and outside Lotus is the worst, always see Singaporeans opening up their big luggages and packing groceries on the floor. Good thing they don’t have those big trolleys like in those standalone lotus, if not the situation will be even more torrid.

Mustafa to Singaporeans is KSL to Malaysians.

Standalone Lotus at Bukit Indah. The old Tesco....

But sinkies who go there normally will drive, so they push trolley to carpark and load onto their SUV or 7 seater.

It's those in Aeon Indah / KSL Lotus that take public transport all bring luggages lol

I usually run all the pau, whether in fridge or in freezer under the tap first for a few seconds to coat it with a layer of water. The pau is semi "waterproof" when cold. After that then put in microwave, semi cover, will still be soft and fluffy. Best is steam of course but sometimes too lazy the water method works well for me. Some people will spray water with spray bottle but I'm too lazy to even use a spray bottle. lol

Careful using the microwave oven to heat up baos, can quite easily turn into rocks. Safest would be to steam.

She's way more cautious. Drive you there then while she parks the car, you go and clear stock. Competitor.

It's only recently I realized at least half of people in City Square with luggage aren't staying overnight. Before eGates I knew uncles tend to push luggage while aunties pushed trolleys. But these days I see many younger ones with luggage strolling in malls.

Day shopping with luggage comfortable meh? Each time I checked out with a luggage I just wanted to head for CIQ.

Now I understand why there're lockers in almost all those malls these days.

Where else do you want? From what I've come across, there're different companies so got to check locations first.

JB masters, for those who drive can I check if returning to SG via Tuas on Monday evening 6-8pm for car lanes. Will kena jam ?

I'm thinking should be fine right since Monday is pretty off peak ? Planning a trip for my older folks and don't really wanna exhaust them on the return trip via foot if possible. Want to max out the day too so returning any earlier is not a good idea for this trip.

Y can now download at one motoring the checkpoint to monitor for yourself
Today is Monday, best time to see it from now till …

Not enough, should have more like in Japan ! Having an entire space dedicated to endless rows of lockers everywhere would be perfect ! Space in cheap in JB, I'm surprised no one has capitalised on it as much as it could have !

I'm looking for one in Eco galleria but I think no have leh. The have a permanent storage branch there only.

 

[SongManKranji]

Thanks !

Sorry, I need the space to hoot BOD, extra body occupies extra space for my KF pau. Furthermore, if I bring you there to hoot bao, you become my BOD competitor liao. No way !

no worries. I have alerted all BOD outlets to hv 1M kung fu paos standby, got many coming to RAID BOD stalls.

Got demand, sure got supply.

But yes, of late you see more luggages and trolleys for groceries and not staying over.

In the past the only time you see non staycation ppl with luggages are in JPO. Now you see them in malls and supermarket.

Don't see me as a competitor la, we buy together against other ppl ma. I so big sized, those aunties want to squeeze me also no chance.

Good idea ! I will do that this evening and observe ! Tks !

As of now, going to 2nd link from jb, traffic seems clear

This kind of lorry I will never be driving beside them, either behind them (in another lane) or just overtake.... Drive beside damn dangerous
