We needed to take a break. We needed to go a place where we don't understand the language and the food. We needed to go to a place where NS and ERP makes no sense. We needed to go somewhere where the mention of roti prata and hainanese chicken rice will be responded with puzzled looks. We needed to get out of Singapore.
But we were 2 poor people who had only S$200 each to spend. So we went to Batam. The place where food is cheap, transport is cheap, hotel is cheap... I can't think of anything that is expensive there.
We were so poor, we took a 45 minute ferry ride overseas, instead of Boeing 777.
We had food you can't find in Singapore. 
I totally miss drinking A&W's root beer float. Coke float is nonsense compared to this.
Lunch was a mix of western and indo food.

Cheap Seafood!! Chilli Crab!! Black Pepper Crab!! Sambal Lala!! YA!!!!!!!!!!!!

My ideal kind of breakfast. Lotsa bread with honey. Yum Yum.

Yes. The monster in me was released upon looking at the banana pizza. It's DAMN good!

Pick your own food!!

Massage lady. At least she didn't make weird noises while doing her job. Unlike someone else. Sigh.
Incredible Finding in Batam:
