HONEST TRAVEL OPINION

WOJAMAMA ASIA CITY COMPLEX

2012-04-12T01:32:00.001-07:00

A famous Japanese restaurant in Kota Kinabalu. Located in asia city complex, this is one of the shop that stayed on after most shops there closed due to loss of profit.

For some unknown reason, this place is now called WOJAMAMA after years of being called wagamama. The food's taste just the same but the menu looks different and the renovation is now more comforting to the eyes. I guess they added few items on their menu there's just 2 things that's amiss. The butterfish which is supposed to look white creamy Looks brownish as if it's about to rott! Perhaps I'm not a fish expert, but I would love to see a fresh looking fish in front of me. The other one is the rice. Sushi rice doesn't have that sushiness in it. I was hoping to bite on something sweet savoury vinegar rice but what I got was dry, tasteless rice. Garlic rice should be fragrant and a bit sticky hard yet soft on your mouth too bad theirs aren't..
The rest of the food and the environment are satisfactory. Salmon head is cheap too. Enjoy your meal everyone.

Business Hour

Shamrock front view.

Place with good jazz/oldies playing in the air.

At the end of your hectic day, Shamrock Irish Bar is the best place to unwind. Located in Waterfront, this is the most relaxing

KINABALU PARK SUTERA SANCTUARY LODGES

2010-12-01T06:26:00.000-08:00

After 3 days of fresh mountain air, it was time to go back home. But before doing so, we stopped by Kinabalu Park, to have our lunch.

A Malaysia's first UNESCO World heritage site, it never fail's to mesmerize it's patrons. Such a wonderful place to forget your troubles and sunk into the cool breeze while listening to the chirping birds and the sound of trees swaying, dancing to the music of the mountains. What a beautiful place to be.

As we stepped in Liwagu restaurant(manage by Sutera), a feeling of comfort and fulfillment touches my soul. Below are the images captured from Liwagu Restaurant:-

After Sutera Harbour Resort Kota Kinabalu had taken over the management, this place turned into a more friendly and well manged retreat centre.

BUt!

If you want a food thats value to your money, your better off enjoying your meal on the other side of the street. I am not saying "Don't eat n liwagu restaurant, it's expensive!" No. What i mean with "value for money food" is something that even though you have to pay more, you are satisfied not only with the service but by the taste of your morsel as well. For example:-

1. Food should arrive within 30minutes of ordering.(Since there are 3 tables to wait and 2 of it is just waiting for their bill/check.)

2. The toilet should be working properly.

3. You don't have to stand infront of the cashier and wait for 10 minutes just so she could count her money.

4. Most of all, the food should be satisfying.

Nasi Lemak Verdict:
Chicken curry -thumbs down(Mamak's curry tastes 10times better)
Sambal -thumbs down(sour)
Rice -thumbs down(Too mushy. Almost porridge texture )

Nasi Goreng Liwagu (Fried rice) Verdict:
Rice -thumbs down (Tasteless, mushy and almost porridge texture)
Fried wing -thumbs down (Not properly cleaned. Few more feathers and the wing could fly)

Saute'd kailan -oklah

With disappointment, we have accepted the fact that the food tasted better before Sutera took over the kitchen.
