Hmm...interesting question that prompted me to look into Nagoya Mansion Hotel and residence. If i dont remember wrong,Kaha prices was something around 470k rupiah per night for basic room,but the thing is i couldnt find the BBQ thingy you were talking about. They REALLY do have the BBQ,which i have seen advertised on agoda on a package.


Its Ramadan time,the previous promotion on their food ends on January...the latest one was the Ramadan one at 120k rupiah per pax.

And below is what i could find about their BBQ dinner from 6pm to 9pm,every Saturday :

How true. Lots of OKTsss in Batam, especially in Pubs,discos or clubs etc etc...

That reminds me about a year ago,ah tek from New berry were replying some sms on behalf of the girls,hehehe...to date,even MM Massage OKT doing the same thing too.

As for food, SUNDA and my favorite Bakso closed for today.
Luckily they will open tmr.
Thank you for the valuable info,bro.

Thank you.

Its almost like Sri Lanka man goes to China to order ONE crab w/o knowing China crab were actually much smaller in size or China man going Sri Lanka to order many crabs not knowing they were much bigger there as compare to China.

Credit goes to the bros who shared the good info.

Thank you for the updates. Another piece of good info for me.

Just to add-on,in King massage there is no in-house massage inside the MP itself. If you want in-house massage,the girl will lead you to a hotel room in Formosa itself,hehehe...meaning they are using a hotel room for in-house massage where you pay 90k/hr. Member gets 10% off,meaning IF YOU are a member,you pay 81k rupiah,hehehe...just show the girl or the counter staffs your member card or number will do. Applies for in-room massage too (you will then pay 90k/hour instead of 100k/hour).

Their original price before member discount :



Good time to try their other massage type/service (eg. Hotstone etc).

By the way,the price list above isnt on display at King Massage during the period of Ramadan. They are not suppose to open shop i think. Always bargain at King Massage for any special service or get chop until whole body blood,hehehe...

Thanks to the bros who shared over the past years,so that we reap the harvest today. Another piece of info is that since girls are lesser,tourist even lesser,it will directly affect majority of the taxi driver's income in Batam,remember to bargain and not get chop carrot. Almost everyone appears to be hungry in Batam.

Cheers!

Enjoy.
In case you didnt know,you have just provide another excellent idea to the masses,hehehe...it is often what i did,be it Ramadan or not. As in if one has the contact,one can always call to see if they are in operation or not via the hotel reception (no need buy sim card). And who knows,come to the hotel i stayed in (never meet them in my own Hotel room,but at lobby 1st).

Clever move,bro.

In the pass,you hv been advice to ask for name card of okt when you doing your shopping.
If you have follow this good advice, by now, you should hv you collection backdoor keys
Hehehe...i read a little joke out of your post.You just made it sound like by getting name card in the past from OKT,one can "scan" the joint's back-door scanner for entry,hehehe...beep! Back door opened. *joking*

Going thru the backdoor of nearly EVERY BOOKING JOINTs is serious a tedious task for me this Ramadan,hehehe...i feel like i am going up mountain and going down the sea (with the rain).

Thank you for sharing. Your previous provided info will become very useful for me in Ramadan 2017 and onward,hehehe...thank you.

Cheers!

I will avoid smoking and eating openly in open unconcealed public places.

I will not talk loudly or play around like a little kid in public places

For pubs,discos and clubs,i am not familiar with it and according to what i have read in the old thread,i can only know the ACTUAL details when i have physical reach there by calling them directly. Otherwise i wait here in this thread for someone who are there on before those dates to provide some detailed information (but info may change from time to time becos no one will know the exact time of their raids).

And below is what i have collected on Ramadan over the years :

...and this one below were my recent words on Ramadan minus the details.

Still working on the Ramadan details of my trip summary now.

Another small update for movie goers.

If anyone really need to buy popcorns and drinks for their movie/s in Batam,try the Blitz Theater Ramadan promo below :


White Ramadhan Combo circled in RED on the brochure above at only 40k (exclude movie ticket). Blitz has 2 branches if I don't remember wrong,Kepril Mall and Harbour Bay Mall.
