Adelaide, Australia Day 3

Day 3

Again we woke up in the noon.Onion22

For me, there was no day and night in Australia. Maybe this was because of the jet lag issue and my course hasn't started yet so I felt super free no schedule pack.Onion12
Moreover, the weather was so cooling that made you feel so sleepy.
Anyway it's my..
BRUNCH TIME!

Under Calvin's accommodation there was a Asian Restaurant called "Mamak Corner". I was so obsessed with their nasi lemak with curry chicken. However, my friend, mao hates it so much that he would rather eat shit than thisOnion42.LOL. He said their sambah chilli isnt that nice. Yeah maybe because I didnt take their sambah.
Their Nasi Lemak with curry chicken was not cheap it's around 9.80 aussie neither you convert or not it is still expansive.

So, this is their Nasi Lemak with curry chicken.
One bowl of nasi lemak, four pieces of curry chicken, two potatoes and half an egg.
Obsessed!Onion53
Actually, in Adelaide I used to eat Asian cuisine instead of western.



After the brunch, my friend, Mr. Jarell came and picked us with the car that he rent.
He rent the car around 400++ aussie for four days excluded the petrol fees.

Renting a car, here is some comments from me.
1. If you decided to tour around the city than I will suggest you to take the public transports instead of renting a car because it is hard to find carpark and the fine is super high here.
2.If you travel by your own or less than 4 persons or more than 4 than you can join their daily tour.(when my parents were here we did join their daily tour because there was 7 of us) The pros for joining the daily tour is that the tour guide will tell u their history and landmark and you dont have to worry about the parking, petrol and fine.

You guys can visit the company's website : www.greatsights.com.au
or call 1300 850 850
This company provides lots of packages. Me and my family went to the Barossa&Hahndorf and Victor Habour.

In Adelaide, there is bus, cab and tram as the public transport.
You guys can view public transport routine :

At the beginning, I wasnt sure what my friends were talking abouyOnion46. They were saying tram tram tram because in Malaysia there is no tram only train.

The different between this TRAM and TRAIN is that TRAM using electricity and TRAIN is still same in Malaysia. In those city stations the tram was free and other stations you will need to pay.
There are two sides of the tram; one go and the other return. 
Must remember which side you use for return. 
However, Jarell and Mao decided to rent a car because we were going to the suburb.

If you thinking of renting a car you can visit this websites :

Before we depart to suburb, we went to fetch our bossOnion71, Mao, because he still having his lectures.
While we were waiting for him, Jarell brought us to this park just opposite University of Adelaide.

This is the bridge that link the city and Suburb.



The birds were having a date.
So Sweeeeeeeeeeet right...Onion79
Finally, Mr. Mao in da house yo and we decided to have our lunch and get some groceries before we set off.
We went to "Hao Hao restaurant" in China Town.
I didn't eat much because I just have my brunch done so I ordered a French toast.
Next, we went to buy some groceries
Usually, they will have their groceries done at the China Town.
The price is cheaper and more varieties.
If you wanna reach China Town by tram you can take till Victory Square.
We went to the trade market which Jarell told me it is the oldest market in Adelaide. In the past, people used to trade in this market when they first migrate to Australia.
You can found daily products like meat, vegetables, cheese and sour in this market.


The meat store!
The meat there was cheap even though you convert.
We bought 1 KG of chicken wing only 5 aussie.Onion80
You can find marinated meat, ribs, pork and beef in this meat store.




Spotted some foods!Onion78


If you cant find the things you want you can go to the nearby supermarket also.

Choosing a watermelon.

We put all our stuffs back to Jarell's place then we off to Burnside village.
Burnside village is a Shopping mall with many branded stuffs like Zara and so on.

From city to Burnside Village take about 10 mins, along the way there is lots of retro buildings and houses. Pretty nice!



Spring is here.

This is Burnside Village!
Honestly speaking, it is quite small but it is a high class shopping mall as you can called.


Can you see how dry was my hair??!!
I think it was cause by the weather and their water quality.
Thus, make sure you use conditioner while you are in Australia.

 Strolled about two hours we decided to have our dinner back in the city.Onion82
Here we go!

"Bah Guo Bu Yi"

Spicy Crispy Fish in Black Bean Sauce Onion33
One of their famous dishes.
It is actually Chilli oil cook with dry chilli added with fish and bean sprouts.
When you eat this you have to be very careful make sure that the source doesnt touch your lip.
If not you will burn your lip.

 This is nice too. We added this dishes into our rice, it is sweet and salted.

That's all for today.
