Met a guy at the lift, keep asking. E if I want "talis" or something.. Anyone knows what it is?

[nono1973]

Hmm...Hai Kee Coffee shop behind Utama closed down? I was about to share about this shop's Bak Kut Teh but...well...i guess no need already (google info).

There's no best Bak Kut Teh other than the one at Astro Hotel area (base on my own taste bud),hehehe...i think this place has been renovated and its no longer what it looks like on the photo already (below).

Near Formosa has another Bak Kut Tek Store, just at the outside perimeter of Nagoya City Walk Mall,along Baba Street Food court.

And there it is, in my own view...this is Batam's worst Bak Kut Teh store at Nagoya Hill Mall. One time, they serve me uncooked Bak Kut Teh pork in the soup, i have not step in to the shop since,hehehe...

The Bak Kut Teh Store (down stair of Sinar Bulan Hotel)in Sinar Bulan food court opposite Formosa is only average.

Oh, and the photo above also shows Indo Rasa Massage, it no longer exist (its closed down). It used to be one of the best place for dick massage for myself. So where is my next alternative today? Hehehe...its even nearer than Indo Rasa now, coming out from Formosa. When Permata Indah closes down, i kind of expected Indo Rasa to close too,hehehe...

Like i often tells my friends with me, sometime the shops may have close down...the girls in it cannot be "close down",hehehe...tho few of them might be big fat old ugly, but they do have some level of skills there.

Temple might have close, monks/nuns might just still be around...hehehe...

Somehow I am quite dull at guessing the hints you guys drop. Haha. I guess I will have to explore more when I visit on my own without family tagging along. Lol. Thanks anyway.

Here's some of my collected info on M1 KTV you might need, posted by bro Ndnd....

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=17...ostcount=10589

Less than a year post,so price difference (if any) wont be too far apart.

Another one would be FR by bro Naka (also not too long ago) :

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=17...ostcount=11343

....for your reference.

Below is M1 Hotel room price.

They renovated their hotel some time back and revamp most of their old rooms, so i believe it should be in an above average quality, since its a 3 star hotel today (they have smoking rooms too).

Anything more ,you may wish to dial the hotel directly.

Cheers!

* you shared some pretty good stuffs in this thread in the past, hence my reply...hehehe...

As per shared by bro PowerBenz, Indo Rasa Buk Kut Teh is not bad. I like it too,hehehe...but i prefer the char siew chicken rice store there.

Indo Rasa Food court has quite a lot of other edible good food in it too. i usually try to avoid the lunch time crowd tho,hehehe....food thats are made faster than usual pace ,some time not so "original" in terms of taste.

This one i arent too sure, perhaps can wait for bro maddog_mlvn or bro BFOMF5 who often "loiter" in that area,hehehe.... to see if they know anything more about Hai Kee's move.

Standing in your shoe to look at myself going for a day trip in Batam.

If i drop in at Batam Center, i will visit Venus Men Spa nearby Batam Center Ferry terminal. Shopping at Mega Mall.

If i drop in at Harbour Bay Ferry terminal, i will visit Octopuss Men Spa in Pacific Palace Hotel,also nearby to Harbour Bay Ferry terminal. Shopping at Bayfront Mall or Harbour Bay Mall (they are side by side each other at about 5 mins walk apart).

Info on both mentioned Men spa and how to get there is in below link :

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=18...ostcount=12411

Link above can be found on my signature, together with other basic Batam info too. You may wish to do some read up 1st since you are new to the scene.

Both Spa is like, your can stay there to burn half a day there, with sauna, hot pool, cold room etc etc. So you will have at least something to do in it before and after the actual massage session starts. You can plan for few hours of shopping/eating before and after the spa is done as well, before heading back to Singapore.

Budget about S$100 or so, excluding ferry ticket and shopping (i add shopping in this one becos i dont know what you will buy,hehehe...).

Enjoy!

[nono1973]

Sometime a certain good people in the forum prompt question/s to me, i need to reply with more details ,hehehe...my reply may be a bit long and i censor off your nick for privacy reason.

I have not been to the new hai yang before,hence i cant provide any info about this place. I believe this place exist becos it came out directly from some good friend's mouth,hehehe...

This reply is going to be super long...hehehe...

I hear recently that Robert the OKT has move back to MM from Sekar (aka old New Berry booking joint). Robert is a streetwise chinese OKT, ask him for recommendation for some good service SYT but one must be willing to pay the price (will still need to bargain down with him). I usually suggest my friend to still go to him AGAIN for the 2nd time when his 1st recommendation isnt up to their standard,but making him vouch for his 2nd recommendation's girl.

Usually turns out better. But if 2nd time also no good, then can drop his further suggestion/s.

The above said on Kupu kupu is only for girls who came from Bali. I hear last year many of them ran away...either quit or went to another booking joint or simply just go freelance.

Some said this place closed down, but still it opens occasionally.

This is the only joint in Batam if anyone is willing to pay in full for me to book a girls in there, i will not even book from there. Why so? Becos it is Batam most expensive booking joint,hehehe...remember,i am speaking from my stingy personality. Other bros may be different.

Some bros here and few of my good friends in Batam has gotta some of the top notch service girls from this joint before. This place is where they house many "old birds" aka lau jiao girls. So if one is newbie to Batam, do tread carefully when you go to this joint. Chemistry plays an important role for better girls in this place.

Not recommend to go alone if one is new to the Batam scene. I dont hate nor dislike this joint,its just a place least suitable for me in Batam.

The young SYT there in terms of looks if put in an old joint,can anytime compete against their 镇店之宝,hehehe... ever heard of the Chinese proverbs “宁当鸡头，不做凤尾” and this place has many 凤尾.

There is however one thing to take note in this place, there is 2 place to look at the girls. One is the open area fish tank area, the other is the area where those girls who has already been booked but yet to be picked up by their customers. So if there's a chance,ask the papi or mami to bring you to those areas. To see what the other "bros" in Batam has already booked in advance (so you can book them next day or next time).

And usually, those were their top girls aka ang bai...hehehe...and believe me, there are usually at least 10 of them in this shop.

This Hawaii is a KTV, usually quite quiet for a booking joint and they open late into the night. Base on my experience, there are many "experience girls" there, occasionally some new girls. Like ex Gold Bird (sedona), its a joint where OKT call the shots rather than the girls themselves ,hehehe...

Service level also like ex gold bird, quite stale. Not recommended for the younger generation of bros in the forum.

This is the "brother shop" of Link KTV, Bunga, and Happy 8. The difference between this place and their other brother shop is, this place house more younger MILF than SYT tho and comes with more newer girls as well.

This shop's girls and the Link KTV girls hop around quite often, therefore its a bit of a challenge to pin point a certain girls there. Example,if i find a good girl in Sri Kandy, in my next trip the girl high chance no longer will be in the shop anymore as she's most probably in Links KTV (their other "brother shop").

It doesnt mean all good girls there goes to the Link KTV, it just means the girls were replaced in the Links as the Link's girls moved somewhere else or step out as freelance or join other booking joint.

The standard of girls were quite about the same as Hawaii KTV. Sometime back,i heard this place was bought over by Happy/Bunga/Sri Kandy's brother shop. A lot of the previous Gold Bird girls still around.

This place like Memory KTV has left me many good memories, and in general their best girls were often behind the "back-door" and not displayed in the main core "fish tank" area.

This place has very little girls,usually no more than 10 at any one time.

Its one of my favorite booking joint,hehehe...i really dont know how to describe this place.

Originally Posted by censored

5. Links

Same like Memory KTV, opens late into the night. Near to Kampong Bule and has way more girls as compared to Memory. A good mix of young/old MILF and SYT there.

If i dont remember wrong, this joint is 10 o'clock from Goodway hotel entrance and/or about 3 streets behind Harmoni Hotel.

An old place which used to call itself New Berry. Most previous younger "ang bai" girls working in New Berry there still in Sekar. The lower range of girls has moved on.

Occasionally (once every 3 months), there will be newer girls there, but they seems to not work there for long tho. I think they might be trying to keep lower profile during year 2018.

Its probably Hai Yang...never been there ,cant comment much...hehehe...

As for how to get to those joints/spa mention above ,below is the link that might help :

Price update as of Jan 2018. Its a unisex spa,so can also bring girls in. I think i heard somewhere my friend telling me about bringing 2 friends (3pax) to get 30% off and 4 friends (5pax) to get 40% off,hehehe...but only available for weekdays and not weekends.

Fame Men Spa (in a ulu corner closeby to Nagoya area):

Octopuss Men's Spa :
Havana Executive Club & Massage :
Delta Spa (2pm direction from Nagoya Hill Mall front entrance) :

Like the ex Golden Finger in Singapore. Most who visit men's spa with sauna, hot room , cold room, hot pool, cold pool etc has lots of time to kill (at least 3 hours or so). Most of these spa's ambiance is like ex Golden Finger, just that Batam ones were bigger in space and way cheaper.

Every men's spa in Batam has their respective packages and pricing, so do check with the respective spa's GROs. No need to worry about price, so long any Singaporean can afford ex Golden finger in Singapore or New York/Bluewave Spa in Johor Bahru, you can afford any men's spa in Batam.

Just remember to bargain downward for anything priced out of the package deal. Below the link to get to those mentioned Men's spa in Batam :

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=18...ostcount=12411

As for KTV, i dont frequent KTVs much, therefore most of my KTV info were as below :

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=18...ostcount=13141

Here's one price list on Grand Dragon KTV :

https://sammyreviews.store/showpost.php?p=15...postcount=5949

...and here's another on their Happy hour list :

I dont drink and if i do have to entertain friends/relatives, i would usually buy liquor from DFS at ferry terminal from Singapore side and have it brought over to Batam and then pay the KTV the 500k rupiah "fine" to have the bottle open up to be serve inside the KTV.

Hope the above info helps.

PM inbox reply can only take in 5000 words, This post has almost double of 5000 words,so can only post my reply here and then send you the link to this post. Hoping for your understanding.

Cheers!

My trip over the weekend with my family tagging along.

Non sensual stuff I did.
Ate some street food outside Formosa. Not bad but nothing to shout about.
Ate Teowchew porridge opposite Formosa, Bubur City not too bad.



Had lunch a Kez, food quality is pretty good, not fine dinning standard but good enough for me.
Had a foot and shoulder massage at sawadee, on top of Nagoya hill, surprising good foot massage from a male masseuse. I will likely go there again while I wait for others to shop next time.

Had lunch at Indorasa, the Bakuteh was not bad but a bit over cooked, still prefer Mickey Mouse.



Surprisingly Indorasa have good Roti prata.


Updated Indo Rasa pics for Nono1973..



For the more sexual stuff
call for 90 min in room massage from Kings, masseuse was a chatty 29 year old milf that look much younger. Tight petite body with nice perky boobs. I originally only want a good massage but she teased me and things went beyond what I tot I was in for. Hahaha. Didn't really nego, she just ask me to pay what I want, sorry to the bros here, likely I paid more than market price. Hahaha. She is my type and we had a really good time, so I don't mind paying a bit more.

Went to look for her in the evening, ask her for a BJ but she say she don't do, don't feel like fking so just end with a HJ.

Trying to find time to get a taxi to find hai yang or some dick massage but don't have much time to sneak out. End up going to Kings for another massage on the last day and another HJ by another girl. Previous girl not available.

While waiting for the masseuse, saw a KTV girl buying water and soft drinks from Kings. She was wear a ultra mini shirt, bent over to get the drink from the fridge, boy what a view.. Hahaha. Gave me an instant hard on. I think KTV might be a thing for me to explore on my next trip.

Thanks to all the bro for the info..

*edit to add pic and some editing.. somehow I cannot upload direct to SBF.. so use IMGBB.
