What to eat in Bintangor

Bintangor is a small town to live at, smaller than Sarikei, therefore living cost is quite cheap if compare with Kuching. Except buying goods for household, the local people spend most on foods, no fancy entertainment found and they sleep early. Being away from home since I move to Kuching, found that foods are so cheap if compare with any other places. Everytimes I comes back home, those dishes that I dying to see and taste are...

If you lose your way to Bintangor, ask people...telling them you wanna go "Pekan Limau" instead of naming if as Bintangor. Buy and eat whatever you want and you can. Make sure to slim down your belly before heading there. Don't worry, you won't get lose in the town because it's really a small town. Less than an hour drive from Sibu and 15 minutes drive from sarikei (if you using the new route) or less than one hour (old route) distance. Come and explore yourself...

Going back home...

Last Monday was a public holiday to celebrate Hari Raya Qurban so I decided to have a trip back to hometown since there are more than two non-working days on row. Four people in one car, still manage to squeeze in.

Finally, we reach home after 5 hours drive...long journey but safe. Thank God for looking after us all along the journey...it was fun though.
