food,hehehe...am a bit allergic to it,bro.

i have to go check it out if they serve non-sea food stuffs or not 1st.

Jln Engku Putri is just outside Batam Center's Mega Mall.

Map below for your further reference :

You may need to walk a bit to look for its exact location around outside Mega Mall perimeter area.

And as for their other branch, you will need to go until ALMOST to the famous Barelang Bridge there (quite ulu,i believe).

Hope this helps a little.

Cheers!

thanks for the quick reply. will go check it out myself with my family next time .

Now I am tempted to take this bus too. The outlook of the bus's interior wont lose to any of the Sillypore buses.

And this is quite surprising for me. Somemore their chair is foldable type,hehehe...

Nice temple, seen it a few times but didn't get the right timing to visit it yet. Ever wonder how long it would take the temple to finish burning the 2 candles below? Hehehe...

(photo edited from your previous post)

I have always have the tempted feeling to bring one of those gigantic candle back to Sillypore whenever I see it in Batam,hehehe...(imagine what the expression of the custom officer/s from Sillypore would be like *joking*)

Thank you for sharing.

Yes, this is the original RM Ibu Joko; located in a small lane next to Harmoni One Hotel. Indeed, very few non-locals know about this place. Bro BFOMF5, you really solid explorer siah... Hahah...

In my opinion, the taste of the food is marginally better at the Lai Lai Hotel outlet.

Definitely Google Maps has changed our way of exploring new places included Batam!
I remember my first time, when I was obstinately looking for a map of the surroundings of Formosa, and I remember the eyes of the staff members staring at me surprised by my strange request....

got the name card from friend recommanded it. cant really tell where is it other then it is near batam center.
thats why post here to check with you guys 1st.
thanks in advance.

Newly opened for just several months only. Like bro BFOMF5 said, it's very near Lovina Inn Batam Centre.

If you are coming from the direction of Batam Centre Ferry Terminal, you will hit the roundabout fountain that's in front of Lovina Inn. Turn left, go pass the Pertamina petrol station and in a hundred meters or so, you will see 2 new standalone buildings; one of them is this Love Seafood Restaurant. Very near to Saung Sunda Sawargi restaurant.

Some of girls i talked to have no complains on Indians/Bangladeshis from other parts of Indonesia,like Jakarta,Bali,Manado etc where they used to work. And why is it only happening in Batam?

Anyway,above were what i hearsay from the girls i met in Batam and had worked in those other parts of Indonesia before.

Lol,this wld remain a mystery.

My recent visit to btm,my gal who's from other province told me she was surprise tat most of them treat the gals in btm so much without respect (but sm girls hwever do deserve it). Not even a simple meal during the booking nor tipping after it.

The mystery is,y only btm.

And of the 2.5 out of 10 who couldnt get it (or those who didnt have a good time),at least half the time it is due to picking the 'wrong' girls and having the incorrect expectation. This is base on MY observation of the Batam Newbie group trip experience i have organized before.

My rules to MYSELF on the Batam games (trips) were simple :

1. Drop at least half of whatever expectation i have from any other places/countries in the world - base on my experience in organizing group trips,MANY has unrealistic expectation.

2. Knows what one is looking for and then seek from thereon.(every step is part of growing up ,there's no one step to 'heaven' when one is looking for 'heaven',applies for traveling all over the world too)

3. Be humble,be nice and avoid having that mentality that "i am your pay-master and you MUST serve me like my slave" attitude. (12 to 18 hours can be a long time if the girl are serving someone they 'hate',imagine i am in her shoe)

4. Always bargain down and do it with a smile. (argue and bargain is 2 different word with 2 different meaning,some will forget that)

5. I have only one dick,there are thousands of tight pussies in Batam for sale,hehehe...i have to control myself very hard NOT TO BE GREEDY,hehehe...

This is what i do and it has help me have a great time in Batam over the last 2 over years,there is definitely no obligation to follow what i do,hehehe...coming to 3 years,and i am still in Batam for more than a reason.

One of them is definitely for the Girls.

I think most will not disagree tat girls were usually the main dish of their btm trip.

Different expectation usually omits different result.

I tried viet's luwak coffee & expect indonesia's luwak coffee to taste similar..unlikely to happen & if it ever does,it'd be rare or mayb smthg not right smwhere.

Thx for sharin yr view.

Spot on! That's my main cause of stress in Batam. Almost unbearable.
But I cannot complain...

I don't think I gave a significant contribution. You would have discovered it anyway soon...

Candles of this size usually took months to finish burning off but most temples wn't fully use up the whole thg. Halfway through,they probably replace it.

My 32nd Batam Trip Summary
(4th Sept to 7th Sept)

In reference to my 31st Batam trip summary.

This trip summary is going to sound a bit boring becos i really how to start it. I look thru all my camera phone and realize that out of 10 photos i took,7 were naked bodies of my girls,hehehe... another thing would be,this the start of my preparation trip for my upcoming CNY 2017 trip. I apologize if its going to sound more like a Guide Book in this summary.

Like my usual,i disembarked from Harbour Bay,got my temperature check before making my way to get my passport chopped,and the anti-zika healthcare staffs were making sure passenger that comes from Singapore wasnt having any fever,rashes,red eyes etc. Thanks to bro Hawkeye,i was better prepared about filling the form and knows what to face :

Due to having early preparation,i can even help other passengers on board the ferry;a family of aged ladies and their little girl in their form filing. One very simple help i offered,i got a pen and help the lesser illiterate to fill in those forms. I think they were all caught by the surprise on the form-filling. They even ask about the white card too.

By the time I touch down and cross the Batam custom stamp-chopping,i was already about 20mins delayed comparing with my usual time I reach Batam in those previous trips. The most difficult time after the custom officer chopped my passport is gone and I looked forward to my paradise ,hehehe...

Upon checking into hotel,i learn of a good news,i qualified for the hotel's Silver membership card. Which is going to give me 15% off nearly everything from the hotel. But what i am after in their membership offer wasnt really the 15% but their free Transport from hotel to anywhere (but not back) 4 times a year.

The silver card also entitles me some free laundry wash which i didnt exactly need. 15% off King massage which i already start using,hehehe...

Not only did i qualify for the Silver card,i also qualify for ONE free night stay too. Now,here's the next best thing which i am targetting,i am looking at the below benefits :

If i am staying in a deluxe room,each night stay i get 13 points instead of the previous 10 points,and 15 points for Junior suite room and 17 points for Family room. 150 points entitles me to a FREE night stay,so in other word i need to stay less than 12 nights to get a free night instead of the previous 15 nights. And Gold card will give me less than 10 nights stay for ONE FREE night stay.

If i can clock more than 15 nights in around 4 months time,i think to achieve less than 12 nights to hit Gold should be a walk in the park,hehehe...thereafter i do some maths base on my regular stay,i would just need to stay less than 9 nights at most time to get another FREE NIGHT stay which in turns makes it the most value promo for free night stays among online hotel sites.

Forget the 15% to 20% of their gimmicks,as a tourist,i can never outsmart their price increase over the discount. BUT!! The free ride back to Harbour Bay gives me an extra bargaining edge against the hotel taxi there PLUS the free night stays also helps me earn some cash to cover my ferry tickets,hehehe....one stone kills many birds in this case. Have i mentioned before in my previous summaries that my stays in Batam hotels were practically claimable,hehehe...

...to page 2

[nono1973]

Now to the places i went to in this trip. I only visit one booking on my 1st day.

Use my usual method to pick a girl without much dwelling. She was priced at 1.2 million rupiah,i got her at 1.1 million rupiah and later to 1 million rupiah and yes,i am with a driver. A little pricey for a 24 year old tho,but the good part is i was her 1st customer in Batam. Her service was good,so i extended her for another night.

I linked up with a bro from this forum and pay one of the men's spa a visit :

Nothing really special,i just want to relax myself,have a chat with a friend and we finished up everything in around 3 hours. Back to hotel room,rest up a little to await the arrival of my girl for round 1 and 2 before meeting my friend again for Dinner at Acia Ikan Bakar Open Food court behind Nagoya City Walk Mall.

Cant really remember where i had my lunch today before heading for cewek shopping. Meals dont exactly seems all important in this trip somehow.

...to page 3

[nono1973]

Anyway,after dinner i send my friend off to the ferry terminal and had my endless OTOT night. The girl i got used to be working in a men's spa before,so this trip i actually save quite a bit of money on massage as she could do a fairly good massage and better still body to body breast massage. It was so good that i dozed off quite a few times and the whole day and night's feeling was like,going to a massage shop,have special service (fj) and then have massage again ,and then special service (fj) again, and it repeats and repeats quite a few times till next morning.

It was a 'mind-blowing' 1st night.

Did i mention my friend left me a box of massage cream during his noontime massage session when his massage girl forget to bring it back. I thank him for that becos otherwise i wouldnt be getting my next surprise,hehehe...well,i hope no one is thinking i am using the massage cream for my girl's pussy,becos i didnt. Its for her 'other hole',hehehe...and its her 1st time (or so she said).

I believe i no need to elaborate further. I think she's trying to built a customer base since i am her 1st customer and she is giving her best shot. Reason i say this is becos in the later part of the same month,i go back to RTF her and her service level drops by at least 50%. *sob*

Anyway,i have her for 2 nights. And i used up more than the amount of CDs from the box below :

She actually brought her own CDs which i used quite a few of it and she insisted on using it which is what i like about her. And knowing her horny aggressiveness in bed,i just have to go downstairs to buy more CDs to standby. 1 box of 3s just isnt enough,hehehe...

i guess i spoke enough here.

...to page 4

[nono1973]

Good time usually pass very fast and soon it was morning,she has to head back to her joint to change or something even tho i am extending her for another night. She wasnt sure of the booking joint procedure since she's only been in Batam for 2 days and nor does she knows her way around,so i get my driver to send her back to joint,paid for her extension and then pick her up at the later part of the day while i head for brunch and a massage at my regular Chinese girl massage joint.

After which i head for a haircut 1st....

...before heading back to fetch my girl. The salon girl actually recommend a chinese taxi driver printed behind her salon namecard and according to her is going for a full day rate of 300k. I took the name card with a smile,paid her 80k for a haircut and wash,thanked her with a smile and walk out of her shop. Just somewhere outside her salon,i dumped the name card away...

...Chinese taxi drivers were by far the most carrot-head chopping taxis in Batam from my perspective. I do not need it. Next month onward i may start testing my FREE taxi rides,hehehe...

After haircut,head back to room and then its all OTOT time till dinner time.

Dinner was at ex. Kroepoek food court. Remember,Kroepoek food court used to need to buy top-up card,deposit some money in the card and then use it to buy food from the respective stalls. Yes,it has closed down and replace by another food court company called Food Colony.

The ambiance remains the same as previous Kroepoek food court but this time round,i think they learned from the previous food court failure,they do away with the top up card system.

I was there on a weekday,so I guess there is no live band.
