Saw this newly opened restaurant around my working place
Nothing wrong or funny nor weird about this
makan place except
the signage which practically caught my attention.
77 ES TELER JUARA INDONESIANow, what does it say or what does it mean?
Am sure those of you who know
Bahasa Melayu and literate has no
problem with the figure 77 and
Juara Indonesia, right?
Yea, 77 is a name and
juara Indonesia is Indonesia Champion but
how about
ES TELER? And how do you pronounce them?
Any takers?
Well to kill a curiosity cat, I
sibuk2 a bit la and asked an Indonesian
friend. And this what I understand.
77 is the name of the
restoran restaurant, you know like
7 -11ES is ice or
Ais in BM (ES pronounce as S)
TELER is Mix fruit (
TELER pronounce as
TEHLER)
Ha ha, funny or not with the
pronunciations?? Okay now let me
show you their signature drink
ES TELERIt looks impressive on its menu so I ordered 3 take- away of ES
TELERI was given 3 ES
TELER drink using some lousy cheap looking
paper cups!
On reaching my office, we found out we have to stir our drink with
straws but heck, no plastic spoon or stirrer!
DAMN.Anyway, the drink is nothing to drool about really, sweet maybe
too sweet for me and basically consists of various fruits like
coconut, lemon and avocado.
ES
TELER comes with a pricey tag
RM 6 per cup.No thanks, not
another cup of ES TELER again.
Perhaps I might try one of these some days
A nice refreshing Indonesia
cendol for a change
Or a cappuccino that might give you a new different taste altogether
unlike from San Francisco coffee.
Frankly with pricey drinks, I have to think twice before my next
patronage to this so called
77 ES TELER.
