Cameron - Jungle trekking

The meeting decided to head back after having some snacks and sandwiches brought from our apartment.

I am out of breath, could not eat.

The Queen with my daughter Arin.

The forest/jungle are so thick and scary.

My son.

At the 100% pure mineral water source.

Collecting the water.

On the way back, am taking the lead.

Tired.

Almost reaching the starting point.

My son with his new Oakley shades.

Now only she is feeling tired with Afiqah.

Arin exhausted

Just for a moment, now she is back active...
We were at the TNB Quarters, they are supervising the hydro power at the waterfall and moonlighting by planting berries and selling the jams and honeys.

Cameron Highlands - Jungle trekking

More photos Jungle Trekking on Cameron Highlands, my son taking the lead, my youngest daughter in purple sweatshirt.

The queen and myself almost out of breath... mengah!

The earth were wet and soggy, walking precariously among the slope.

So many hazards of fallen trees.

Mushrooms among the fallen logs.

After almost an hour walking in the jungle and not knowing the destination, everybody started to doubt and a meeting was called, chaired by the Queen.

Cameron Trip - Jungle trekking

Sorry, it has been quite some time, too many things is happening in December and too many chores to settle..., fetching my daughter in Melaka, too many public holidays, going on holidays to Cameron Highlands, balik kampung to Johor Bahru & Kota Tinggi... very tiring.

Anyway, here are some photos during our adventure in Cameron. The first day was raining cats & dogs, second day was fair but last day rain again. Traffic was heavy up there during school holidays. strawberry were out of season and scarce, many were upset not able to individually picked the fruits.

Anyway, it was enjoyable, we went for jungle trekking on the second day, but most of the time shopping, shopping, shopping. The first day was my son's 19th birthday, 20th December.

Heading for the jungle, passing through some TNB quarters and farms.

Path leading to some Hills, don't remember, probably Mentigi.

Heading to the Robinson waterfall. Pictures of the waterfall.

Further into the Jungle, without knowing where to go. Somebody volunteered to guide but halfway he was gone, so we had to be on ourselves.

My son leading the pack, the queen in maroon sweater, giving command.

GP Jati Beriani House

Semalam, dalam perjalanan balik dari Paya Indah Wetlands terjumpa GP Jati Beriani House, tak jauh dari Simpang Paya Indah Wetlands. Serta-merta tekan brek dan masuk parking...Tengok dari luar kedainya sungguh cantik dan baru, ala-ala Bali gitu. Nampak semuanya baru lagi.Didalam nya kerusi meja dari perabot Jati... semuanya kelihatan baru... tapi yang pentingnya sedap atau tidak. Saya ni "very particular" pasal nasi beriani ni. Ramai sangat yang mengaku Beriani Batu Pahat atau beriani gam.

Pernah saya jumpa penjual yang tulis poster Beriani Johor di pasar malam, tapi tak ada lauk masak beriani, yang ada daging rendang, bila ditanya mana lauk beriani?, dia tanya balik, Lauk beriani tu apa? Ceh! apalagi saya pun cakap lah kalau lauk beriani pun tak tahu jangan mengaku Nasi Beriani Johor/Batu Pahat.

Beriani Ayam

Bila order dah sampai... dari segi rupa nasinya dapat A++, bukan semua penjual yang guna "saffron" atau koma-koma secara "generous" begini, merah kuningnya ketara, sebab saffron ni mahal, 1 gram berpuluh ringgit. "Saffron" ni di import dari Spain atau Turki kerana bunganya hanya terdapat disana. Beras basmathi yang panjang-panjang dan lerai memang sesuai untuk masak Beriani.

Beriani Kambing

Giliran merasa nasinya dulu... WOW! memang sedap, nasi aje tu belum lagi lauk beriani...

Bila rasa kambing beriani... wah baru betul ni... memang tak di nafikan setelah sekian lama saya mencuba nasi beriani di KL/Selangor ni, inilah yang terbaik, terpower, tersedap untuk seluruk KL/Selangor lah. Sampai habis licin. Memang makan nasi beriani ni lawannya air sirap bandung yang dibancuh dengan "cream soda" - semuanya authentic...
Hampir setanding Beriani masakan Emak saya & juga Pak Cik saya - Arwah Pak Mat Kepol di Tampoi JB, setanding beriani Restoran Hj Bakhil juga di Tampoi JB, Beriani Mat Shah di Batu Pahat dan Beriani Taman Soga, BP.

Beriani lain yang dah saya cuba di KL/Selangor ni tak sehebat ini. Sebagai orang Johor makanan ini adalah my all-time favourite apatah lagi semua adik beradik saya kahwin dan semua kenduri-kendara semuanya masak beriani samada oleh Pak Mat Kepol, Emak, Pak Hamid, semuanya saya terlibat sama... buat menyibuk...

Lokasinya terletak tak jauh dari persimpangan ke Paya Indah Wetlands, jika datang dari pekan Dengkil/Putrajaya, terletak di kiri jalan bersebelahan gedung perabut Jati. Jika dari Banting atau Klang, tak jauh selepas Simpang Paya Indah.

Harganya standardlah kalau nak makan yang betul-betul power... Beriani Kambing RM12 tak jadi hal, Beriani Ayam RM10 dan ada pulak Beriani Keli RM7... ini harga standard KL. Harga koma-koma atau saffron mahal dan beras basmathi pun tersangatlah mahal sekarang ni.
