November 2019 trip.
Tried the curry rice in both Harapan Baru hotel and Meximo pub in this Nov 2019 trip,hehehe...
From Harapan Baru hotel coffee shop :
From Meximo pub wan tan noodle shop :

The Meximo pub one taste better, not so oily and starchy. Both were pretty good tho,just that the meximo pub ones suits me better. The curry in Meximo pub taste better too, tho the color of the curry doesnt look like curry to me (in light milky-white-yellow color). More towards Japanese version of curry.
Next trip to Batam, i might try the Harapan Baru Hotel's Bak Kut Teh,hehehe...why so? Hehehe...after i relook on the photos i took, i learned that they serve shi quan (十全) Bak Kut Teh,meaning to say their Bak Kut Teh is a mix of 10 types of herbs mixed into it.
Check out number 9 on their menu.
How to keep a man "standing" all night long when he wants it to,hehehe...beside just Tongkat Ali and viagra, there is something called Ginseng. And shi quan consist of ginseng and 9 other potency chinese herbs mixed into the soup.
Now that they have "that" in Bak Kut Teh version, how not to give a try?
This type of herbal soup is not just good for the male vitality but also good for helping to unblock vessels in the human body when taken in moderate level. Just like in the past, viagra isnt original made for male vitality but more towards for people with heart issues or blocked vessels. Tongkat Ali is
also categorize under one of the Ginseng type by the chinese lab in China.
Most human body will become heaty after consuming shi quan(十全), hence be reminded to drink lots of clear water. This place is worthy of my return,hehehe...on, and the place sells pig intestine soup (number 12) too.
Just sharing.
