Re: Batam Info Thread

Another simple place to drink if you want some air con in such hot weather is Tea Story Restaurant inside Formosa Hotel(Vienna restaurant is the one which you will have you FREE breakfast). No hostess there tho,hehehe...just simple day time drink with some taiwanese finger food.

Yes,if you are not in a hurry,simply ask the taxi driver to drive you guys to Kaha Travel opposite Harmoni Hotel,buy your Formosa Hotel voucher and then head to Formosa Hotel before paying the taxi driver his agreed fare with you before hopping on.

I dont drink,so i am not too sure how much will the drinks be Dynasty99 KTV but as according to some of friends,beers are cheap. And very often in this thread,"dirt cheap" is used to describe the prices of the beer. My only experience with beer prices is in Tea Story Restaurant inside Formosa Hotel (fyi,we are allow to smoke inside restaurants in Formosa except during breakfast time),i treat a few friends to a beer at 7k rupiah per big glass of beer,hehehe...Tipping wise really depends on KTVs or KTV pubs like Dynasty. In Alishan KTV,girls sat with their customers for 4 to 5 hours w/o butterflying around or thru out the night from 730pm onward,it would cost 250k/per girl (on tips). Check on the price of lady's drink 1st if the girls want drinks. Booking is meant for overnight,thats optional in any KTVs.

Honestly,i arent sure about the room prices or the drinks prices in Alishan KTV (its somewhere in my notes tho).What i know is,it wont be expensive. If base on Sillypore term,everything should be as said,"dirt cheap". (to me,every drink is expensive in Batam,hehehe...)

Its the mind game on human nature. Fri,Sat and Sun,people in Batam worked very hard cos of the crowd. Monday is usually rest time for most as they are tired. So most would rest on a Monday and some on Tuesday. Or i can put it in another way around it,Fri ,Sat and Sun,people who work hard in Batam are richer than usual due to the crowd,and with more money in their pocket,it is human nature that one tends to laze more and/or become less heartening to work.

Its called Monday blues symptom for most humans in this planet i guess...lol.
