If thats the case,i will usually choose to ignore. There is no answer from me for the BEST of Batam,only the worst.Becos everyone has different definition of the word Best,and my BEST could likely be your worst. The Banned Joint in the List or on my signature is the worst collect from feedbacks. My personal worst joint,hehehe....is none other than Happy Massage 8 which i find them overly-priced and lousier service than most joints.

I agree,sharing information with the wrong person can become scary,especially those who comes aggressively. Reminds me of the 7 deadly sins,hehehe...

Yes,i agreed with you. If there is a Batam Food Guide,i am sure this thread will rock out of this thread and maybe even shake the other part of the Internet World. But i have plans,and the Food Guide wont be anytime soon until towards end of 2015 or beginning 2016 (i am only assuming). Who knows,maybe i am just NATO (no action,talk only)...lol.

Baby steps a time,i am in no rush.

Yes,it is indeed a big task. So i planned to start small and personal 1st...hehehe....we cheong in one particular place,we also need to fill our stomach.So the food place with good food around that "one particular" place will become very crucial to begin with.

Example only :

i am base in Formosa,i will start walking to find food after a good bonk. I walk over to Sinar Bulan Food court 10' Oclock of Formosa Hotel main entrance from a viewable distance of around less than 30m to have their Bak Kut Teh,or Ikan food or satay. But whats really good on my personal menu are their Ikan Ayam in this food court.


Btw,this is the back of the food court,food court is directly under Sinar Bulan Hotel.

2nd day ,i know i cannot eat Ikan Ayam everyday,so i walk over to Indo Rasa Food Court which is directly behind Relax Massage to have their Black Chicken Tonic soup with rice.Relax massage is directly opposite Formosa,one will need a pair of glasses if he/she cannot see it from the Hotel's main entrance. Anyway,i have a good bonk didnt i? I need to revitalise myself fast and strong,so Black Chicken tonic soup should do a fairly good job.


Indo rasa Food Court is directly under Indo Rasa Hotel

Of course,this food court got other of my favourite food like Bak Kut Teh,Chcken Rice.Char Siew Rice,and better still,even Roti Prata made by Indians.

So the Food List Goes :

Formosa Hotel Area -

1. Sinar Bulan Food Court - directly 10 O'clock from Formosa front door,directly under Sinar Bulan Hotel.

- Bak Kut Teh
- Western Food
- Ikan Bakar/Ayam
-Various Indo food store

2. Indo Rasa Food Court - directly behind Relax Massage and Relax Massage is directly opposite Formosa Hotel.

- Hainanese Chicken Rice
- Tonic soup
- Roti Prata
- Bak Kut Teh
- Various indo Food Store

-----End of Example-----

And then the list just goes on and on and on and update like the previous cheong list once a month with nothing of the same is ever repeated (otherwise it wont be call updates),hehehe....

Just like the guides and cheong list,all the little tiny bit after some sorting out and all added together,it will become a Big List by end of 2016,hehehe...
