How to go to Bagan Lalang

It wasn't an easy ride from Seri Kembangan to Bagan Lalang. As a known fact that I always misplaced my "things" (blame it on aging..haha); I totally forgot about the printed direction that I had consolidated the day before from various blogs.

If you are coming from Seri Kembangan / Puchong / Putrajaya / Cyberjaya; you can follow the same direction as per the post here. It's actually very easy to go to Bagan Lalang. If minus the time we lost our way, from Seri Kembangan roughly takes about 30 to 45 minutes.

What really made our endeavour easier was this particular super nice guy called Zahari. He was uberly nice by showing us all the routes to the best 'kerepek' factories in town.



Fatty bombom was blowing her top off as I had the group circling around KLIA and LCCT aimlessly. Sorry!! Being the overly positive me, I told them zillionth time that it was alright! Furthermore, this is supposed to be our precious holiday, right? WRONG! Our first goal on the list is to find the kerepek factory. Right on! I think God must have heard our wish and our path was made easier. Right after we asked the numerous strangers for the way, we met Zahari. He happened to be the 'tokey mesin kerepek' in Bagan Lalang. Wow! What does that mean? Nothing else, except $$$ *did you hear the cash machine ring ding dong at the back ^^ *

Without further delay, let's take a tour of our journey finding the most delish of them all.

Ketemu Rezeki, one of the kerepek factories that we visited.

Kerepek ubi - tapioca chips, fried and flavoured with only salt.

This is tapioca (ubi kayu) before it becomes tapioca chips (kerepek ubi).

The finished products: flavoured chips, spicy chips and salted chips.
All from tapioca.

Fried chips before packaging

This is the warehouse where you can buy chips in bulk.

We had our share of unripe Markisa / Passion fruit grown beside the factory.
It was so sour that it made me salivating even just by looking at it now.
