You go during lunch hour peak period? Weekends?

I ask cos i usually skipped lunch/dinner hour prime time.

Lunch time in Batam usually were at around 1145am to 130pm.

Dinner time usually around 6pm to 730pm. Those were Indonesia timezone.

Most time when i have a group of friends with me,our dinner meet up time were usually after 7pm and if its lunch time,usually around 130pm or after.

Why so? Becos of the 1 hour time lapse between Singapore and Indonesia timezone,hehehe...i ask my friends to fall in at lobby area for dinner at around 7pm Batam time,but its already Singapore time 8pm,hehehe...and after some in-punctuality (between friends) and/or some discussion on where and whats for dinner,we probably end up heading off to dinner around 715pm plus Batam local time,and thats how we end up having dinner OFF the batam peak hours (usually land ourselves on a dinner table at about 730pm),hehehe... same theory applies for lunch too. Psychologically, most Singapore tourist forgot that at 730pm, Singapore is already 830pm,hehehe...

By 730pm,i doubt i still need to queue.

Just relating my experience.
