Tanjung Sepat & Sepang Gold Coast

Initially, we only planned to go Sepang Gold Coast, also called as Bagan Lalang Beach which located at the strait of Malacca, Sepang. It is a half developed place, whereas more development need to be made in order to attact more tourists. It took us around 1 and half hour from KL till Sepang (you may follow this location map: http://wikitravel.org/en/Bagan_Lalang). After doing research through google, we found out that Bagan Lalang is very nearby Tanjung Sepat, which only 2o minutes away, hence we decided to have Tanjung Sepat + Sepang Gold Coast a day trip.

The sea water definitely is not clean, is quite polluted. It is a good place to stroll around especially for family, couples or friends. Wind wasn't that strong, our kite can't even stay on sky for 5 minutes, so it is kind of disappointing. However, I like the white and smooth sand. I love stepping on sand, and playing some childhood game on sand. I always had a dream to collect seashell on the beach, catching crabs, building castles and etc. But, my dream still remained as dream. But, we discovered a jelly-typed of dead creature or organism floating on the sea. Initially, we were scared. Out of curiosity, we tried to move it but it was too heavy and the identity yet to be discovered.

How to get to Tanjung Sepat? It is kind of simple. Followed the map above, we followed Sg Pelek road, and we saw the sign board of Bagan Lalang, we supposed to turn right, but we don't turn in. We go straight all the way, around 20 minutes and Tanjung Sepat signboard will be on the left side.

So, what is it so special about Tanjung Sepat? Ok, first we visited Joo Ha Coffee Trading. It is located at Lorong 5. This is not really a shop, the boss fully utilized his left over space beside his house to make coffee. He fries the coffee bean, and make the coffee powder. Initially, we wasn't treated warmthly because we are only 2 people. Discimination happened once you are not coming in a big group. Why? Because they only want to sell more their products. Luckily, the boss is there. He is nice toward us, explained the types of coffee bean, showed us the tree, and told us about history. Although a bit long gas, we appreciated his friendliness toward us.
What is the famous in Lorong 4? They are very famous of bun. Hai Yew Heng, basically already sell off their bun very early, and you have to reserve buns if you would like to taste. We bought few buns, as compared to others who ordered 30, 50, 100 buns per day, we are really the most valueless customer for them. I had tried Mei Cai Bun and Sheng Rou bun. Mei Cai Bun was quite special for me, first time tasted mei cai in a bun. The taste is acceptable, it will be the best served with some chili sauce. Sheng Rou bun was not bad too. The texture of the bun is soft, and normally they take buns with a cup of coffee.

Later on, we proceed to mushroom's farm. Agotech is the name of the company. They combined a homestay service for visitors, a mini market for their product, and a farm beside the shop. They grow numerous types of mushroom, I think around 5-7 types. The most special 1 will be ling zhi. First time visited mushroom farm, and got to know the way how mushroom is grow.

Again, I found people in Tanjung Sepat are really keen in selling. They are good seller, but sometimes their approach is too active and direct. In addition, most of the shop are printed all the news or articles about them, and pasted it on their board. They put it as a promotion for them. For example, some shop are printed a big poster of them taken with Xiang Jia Xian. It is the way they market customers. Honest speaking, Tanjung Sepat has lots of food or things can buy.

The most rewarding event of the day is to enjoy a nice seafood dinner. We went to Ocen Seafood restaurant, which is located beside Lover's Bridge. We are lucky to meet a very helpful uncle who guide us the way to go to this restaurant.

We love the food there, especially steamed food. Their seafood is fresh. Both of us have gigantic stomach to finish 4 dishes which I thought all the dishes will come with small portion. I was wrong. This meal can serve 3-4 people. I got a bit disappointed with claypot toufu, it was a bit plain.

We walked a bit on the lover's bridge. We dare not go far because it was too dark. It was around 10pm after we finished our meal.

I just love the breeze from the ocean, and the sound of the sea waves. It made me truly indulged. It was so delighted and enjoyable to have a trip with a friend.
