Nasi Padang only authentic in…..Padang
@@leehyunsong7001 llol in a lot of places udh banyak keless yg jual authentic, cmn tinggal pinter2 aja nyarinya.
This video is giving fair review about batam rahter than other youtuber
Been a long time batam feels so dead without singaporean tourists for like 2 years, now it's feel alive again especially weekends.
Eh one thing I need to salute is you guys ate nasi padang with your (right) hand. Not many Chinese pple willing to try. Heck, even some Malay pple prefer use fork and spoon in public. Pfft. So you guys are awesome travellers in that sense.
Need for salute ? Omg. Seriously.
Omg i miss batam. Especially when u go the barelang bridge theres this shop they sell corn barbecue. N u put margarine n a bit of spice and the taste is so awesome. And when u guys going there do come to the fishing port Jetty. Over there u can c the fisher man where in sg u cant saw anymore. And there's a lot of cheap kampong food u guys should try where is kampong area where.
Nice kaibigan salamat po sa pagbbahagi God bless po
The ferry companies must lower down their prices to attract more Singaporeans to visit Batam. Right now, it is $80 return compared to $50 pre pandemic. That's like RM240 which can give u a good time in JB, hence so many people prefer to brave the traffic and head over to JB instead of taking the quick 40 minute ride to Batam.
As experience before, once the price goes up to $80. The ferry companies will hesitate to reduce the price. They know very well that there are some people who are willing to pay for the high price unless there is a boycott which is unlikely.
Inflation. Everything has gone up.
nah stuck in jam for 3 hours compared to paying a bit more? batam anyday. plus the rupiah is far weaker den ringgit.
👍
this just tempted me to go batam even more :/
FYI: cheese is called "keju" in bahasa indonesia
I miss the seafood at A2 food court & Nagoya Hill shopping mall
You should try seafood and wok hey at Okela restaurant near Grand Batam Mall. It's just 100m away from the mall. They usually open at 5.30 pm. The most convenient hotel to stay is i-hotel baloi. It's surrounded by malls, food center, market, and massage parlors. If you're looking for happy ending massage, go to venus spa and Phoenix spa (hanky panky)
Is the travel insurance thing mandatory though?
Do a video on BIntan next!
awesome video...btw how do u purchase the travel insurance?
Is travel insurance a requirement? Will be heading there this Saturday.
Hi Mothership team, thanks for the feature! I think I will just follow your itinerary somewhat with the food places you featured.. I saw that you guys hired a vehicle/driver for the trip. If you feel he was good, are you able to share his/their contact?
Hey there! Unfortunately that was one of our colleague’s friend, but we’re sure there are other good guides in Batam online 😊
If u can't find any driver , i think u can use grab , its cheap
@@siutju9265 does Gojek also run in Batam?
@@shownottell8804 yes , gojek and grab operate also in batam
Guys, do fully-vaccinated Singaporeans need to take PCR test Pre-Departure and and another one On-Arrival? No quarantines these right?
No need pcr and quarantine to Indonesia at the moment.
Yup no need for pre-departure ART tests or quarantines!

As a Chindo I dont get why Indonesian food is not much more popular outside of Indonesia. Indonesian food is better than Malaysian food and on par with Thai food I feel.
lack of promotion? Idk.
but thai & malaysian foods are very popular in Asean.
@@Klaharnchaiya Indonesian food is better than Malaysian and I'm not saying this because I'm Indonesian.
@@nsebast Malaysian food is more similar for Singapore taste buds compared to Indonesian food. Maybe it is lack of marketing and publicity. Most foreigners only think of Nasi Padang when they think of Indonesian food.
Because its easier to go Malaysia than Indonesia
I think it has something to do with diasporas in the States. I mean many Malaysian, Vietnamese, and Thailand people go abroad to the States and they gather communities there and end up making their business area famous while Indonesian people are not so likely. I mean Indonesia itself is huge and you can already find tons of ethnicities here like Javanese, Dayaknese, Minangnese, Indonesian-Chinese, Indonesian-Arabic, and much more (700+), Indonesia is felt just like States and that's maybe why we don't go to the States. In Indonesia we often think that we already live comfortably, everyone speaks Bahasa, and we can do anything we want and that's why just a few of us have the urge to live abroad.
This way makes Indonesian culture including food isn't that famous because not so many Indonesian living in the States. Things are different when you go to the Netherlands where Indonesian culture and food are highly appreciated and recognized, they even called all Asian shops "Toko".
yes shark meat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Andrew you haven’t got a job still can go travel, got money to spend ah
johor.
does Batam welcome Thai ?people
Yes they do!
batam welcoming around the world bro

Just coming back from Batam (Aug 2022).
First time there, very disappointed.
Now needed to pay S$50 for visa on arrival.
Whole of Batam smelled like sewage.
Restaurants looked dirty and food was not good.
Grab drivers were rude and dropped us off at wrong places.
Communication very challenging, English not widely spoken.
Not going back anytime soon.
Maybe we did it wrong, but we were happy to come back to Sg..
Anda pasti bukan orang yg punya karakter baik. Yang saya tau, batam kota yg ramah turis & punya banyak restoran yang bersih dan berkelas.
@@henrimanahan1526 ok, insulting me in Bahasa makes me feel my first impression was not too far off...
Batam : meat heaven
What about if someone prefer vegetarian or fish food?
@@M43782 roll or bong ???
Be careful, protect yourself from attacks from extremists there
Kue Jongkong or Kim Jongkook? LOL
Host should swap with camerawoman
😢
That is a hurtful comment.

Charbor, you really need a makeover lah. NOT the camera fault
