 PULAU PEMANGGIL, MERSING JOHOR

The island sits 45 km east of Mersing mainland.

As with most inhabited islands in Malaysian waters, Pemanggil has its fair share of history, mystery and spooky tales. The island is fishermen's best-kept secret. It is known for deep-sea fishing and good hunting grounds for marlins and mackerels.

This remote island is also famed for the beauty and abundance of marine life within its clear emerald waters. Its other magnetic charms include endless stretches of white sandy beaches and awesome snorkelling spots. Fishing and diving is excellent here.

For the adventurous, the hill outcrop of the island makes for a challenging climb and the summit holds an inherent scenic beauty of the far reaching ocean.

We can reach Pulau Pemanggil by boat from Mersing Town.

Best Putu Piring in Johor !!!!!!

  This putu piring stall is situated along Jalan Langkasuka in Larkin, Johor Bahru in the compound of the family home of the very warm and friendly Encik Bakar. Encik Bakar said he has been doing putu piring (since 1971) for more than 30 years in the same traditional way. They were smooth, delicately sweet pillows from Gula Melaka. There was a little bit of salt applied to the grated coconut. The yellowish appetising colour came from the turmeric powder applied to the rice flour. My taste buds were introduced to an unusual combination of flavours and texture by consuming the soft and sweet putu piring along with the slightly salty and tender grated coconut. With a teh tarik, I readily polished off 5 putu pirings (for RM2) even with a 3⁄4 tank full tummy. (RM4 for 5 bits, 2019 price.) Restaurant Name: Putu piring larkin dan kuih muih Adress: family home along jalan langkasuka near t junction at jln langkasuska and jln cendrawasih johor bahru. Hours: 12pm - 6pm WRITTER: MUHAMMAD...
