Trip to Kluang and Zenxing Organic Farm - Part II

Went back to Zenxin Organic Park hopping to catch the 10.30am free guided tour.

































We were waiting for the free guided tour but was told they were short-handled and could only conduct a guided tour for the group of school kids, and that they were going to pick Kang Kong first. As we didn't want to join the kids (picking veg can take a lonngg time), we decided to rent bicycle and roam around ourselves.
















We were so excited and started on our bicycle ride. But it lasted less than 20min, the weather was sooo hot and the paths are sooo bumpy that we decided to just walk.


With the pumpkin, I have no idea what Hubby is trying to portray in this photo:



















(Left:) Chili Plant - Can you see the green chilies which are camouflage?
(Right) Lady's Finger - The flower is so pretty!















(Left) Long Beans - I didn't know they always grow in pairs!
(Right) Roselle Flower 洛神花 - We usually only see the dried ones.















(Left) Dragon Fruit
(Right) I cannot remember what plant this is but I like the pic which Hubby took.




















I don't know what this plant is, but the guide said touching the fruit would bring good luck and immediately everyone rushes to touch it ha!

There are lots of other herbs and vegetation and its impossible to post all here. If you are interested to see more, make a trip down to Zenxin Organic Park!

We were very tired after the tour and the weather is scorching hot. Its also time for lunch, so off we go to the restaurant for some organic goodness!

These were what we ordered:
















Fried pumpkin with sesame (Small: RM9)
















Mixed Vegetable Soup (RM8), I only remember to take photo after each of us has had a bowl of soup.
















Samsui Chicken (about RM18). The chicken is nice with the chili sauce and garlic paste. We asked for extra chili and garlic.
















Fish Soup Bee Hoon (RM7). Doesn't seem impressive in this photo but there is lots of organic vegetables in this bowl, and the serving is huge!

Had a tiring but enjoyable trip, wouldn't mind going again =)
