Ratha Fish Head Curry & Kacang Sempalit Factory @ Raub

This is my final post... It's not my "final" post for this blog. Just my final post about my 2D1N trip to Raub, Pahang. A brief information on Raub, my hometown. Raub is a small town which is very lively in the morning at the markets and kopitiam, quiet down in the afternoon and "yamcha" session begins in the night.

For our second day, I introduced our famous fish head curry in the town. Btw, I have a true story to tell here. Last time, I was in an ice-breaking sessions in a new environment, people tends to ask, "Tell me something about yourself. Your name, your age, your major... where is your hometown?" So, I mentioned, "I'm from Raub, Pahang" and whenever there were Indians, they will respond happily, "That place got a nice fish head curry!! I love their curry! The restaurant is called Ratha, right?"

In my previous post (if you haven't check that out, click this: http://mylilbffs.blogspot.com/2014/07/raub-durian-orchard-raub-pahang.html), I brought some friends to visit my own hometown, Raub. Raub is a small town yet quite happening one. We have a lot place of attractions which mainly are resorts, the mother nature of waterfalls or rivers and also the orchards.

Raub Durian Orchard @ Raub, Pahang

Last weekend, I brought my friends to visit my home town, Raub. Raub is a small town in Pahang which located between Bentong and Kuala Lipis. By using the Karak highway and enter to Bentong, Raub is around 48km from there.

My hometown is a quiet yet very happening town (especially at night). The town's speciality is durians as I heard that most of our durians are exported to China. I also heard that KL people who ate our durians, will come back for next time, just for durians!

Since all my friends love durians, why not go for a durian buffet? I brought them to my friend's orchard. Of course not owned by her, it's owned by her dad.

You need to make the booking before you go there as they need to ensure the place is not too crowded and visitors are able to enjoy their durians. So, remember... Make your booking before your planned date for the durian feast!

We reached the orchard around 1 pm. The orchard located in a very rural area which is about 15-20 mins drive away from the town. A place called Kampung Gali Hilir. You need to notice the "Raub Durian Orchard" signboard at your right-hand side and a green mosque. I advised my friend to make the signboard bigger so the tourists are able to notice the location.
