Going to Langkawi – Visiting Kuah Town

As soon as we done with island hopping, Yatz and I went to get a quick lunch nearby Cenang Beach. That is of course after taking a shower to rejuvenating the body. It has been a tiring morning with the boat ride. Settling down not too far from where we stay, we decided to have our lunch session at the Tomato.

Yummy food. Budget wise, it’s just like having mamak in KL. Not expensive that will burn your pocket. After a quick lunch, and off we go to around the island. Our first rendezvous is to go to look for the buffalo cheese. Sort of the cheese made from the buffalo, which is unique and special according to my reliable source, I think. Based on the map we had in our hand, it shows there is this farm called Buffalo Park. Is it the place we are going to? We decided to give it a try – no harm going there since I get to sit back and relax. Yatz is the one behind the wheel.

Here is quite deserted. Not much of crowd or we come at the wrong time? The place is deep inside the island and somehow we still need to pay for the entrance where by the processing unit is off for the day. We were kind of disappointed because we keen to look at how they milked the buffalo and process it to become cheese.

What we were shown were the byproduct – Dadih, yugort and ice cream. By the way, what we can see around the palce is full of buffalo dungs. It is not scent friendly and those that not used to the kampung life, they might find it smelly.

We soon left the place as there weren’t much business around here for us either.

Off we headed for the chocolate heaven. Yatz and I wanted to get some chocolates back to KL. Well, it was a huge shop full of candies and chocolates. We stumbled upon a night market at Pandak Mayah, which is a little too early. There wasn’t much of a crowd so we could take some shots here and there.

We bought some food for takeaway as we decided to makan in the hotel room later. We had a bottle of Mojito to go along with.

As soon as we done with the food that we decided to buy for dinner, we headed for Dataran Lang. A site must visit for the photo shooting. Got one huge gigantic eagle there. A sculpture of an eagle.
