Fish Noodle Soup @ Jin Jin Seafood Restaurant

2011-12-21T22:42:00.000+08:00

I don't know how I could have forgotten about this yummy fish noodle soup at Jin Jin Seafood Restaurant! I remember a couple of years back, I used to have this almost every Sunday for brunch, but for some reason, I just never got around to blogging about it! But I finally got to eat it again last week, thanks to my brother and SIL! And this time, I made sure I took a photo of it before

Wojamama Lintas' New Look, New Menu!

2011-11-24T12:35:00.001+08:00

I got to dine at the newly renovated Wojamama Japanese Restaurant Lintas branch last night with the hubby, and I must say that I'm very impressed at the restaurant's new look! The overall ambience is much better than before. I also love the mini cubicles (for those of you who want a bit of privacy), and just how cute is that children's corner! Their menu had been revamped as

2011-11-21T09:43:00.001+08:00

** Reviewed this place before as well, but as usual, it was in the previous foodblog, which is now deleted :( The hubby and I just LOVE steamboat dinners, what more if they are an All-You-Can-Eat Buffet! So for our 8th Anniversary dinner, we've decided to bring my big brother and SIL along as well; the more, the merrier, right? :) Destination: Beijing BBQ Steamboat at Kg. Nelayan

Kasih Sayang Resort

2011-10-24T14:52:00.002+08:00

After several attempts to make a trip up to Kasih Sayang Resort with the hubby (but failed because we missed the Jalan Kokol Poring-Poring junction each time!) we finally managed to drive up there yesterday! I just love road trips! It's just oh-so fun, don't you think? :) If you're one who easily get motion sickness (like me), then you might want to prepare yourself prior the trip up there,

Thai Style Ngiu Chap @ Kedai Kopi Ria

2011-09-27T11:00:00.003+08:00

I usually cannot stand spicy food, but give me Thai food anyday, especially Tom Yum Goong, and I could finish the soup until the very last drop! Weird, isn't it? Thai Style Ngiu Chap So, it is no wonder that this version of Beef Brisket Noodles, or Ngiu Chap is one of my personal favourites: it is actually a Thai version of it! It used to be quite spicy a few years back (with cili padi inside

Food Photo Friday #1: Char Nyuk Mien

2011-09-23T18:30:00.001+08:00

Deep Fried Pork Noodle or Char Nyuk Mien [RM5] which can be found at Kedai Kopi Hui Chow. One of my absolute favourites! The soup is a must-try too; dry prawn soup! Certainly different from other coffeeshops, which is why I like it! ~~~~~~Kedai Kopi Hui ChowGround Floor, Shoplot 12 (same row as 7Eleven)Taman Fortuna Phase II, Kota Kinabalu~~~~~~

Wishbone @ Gaya Street

2011-09-22T12:44:00.007+08:00

I remember back when I was still in primary school years, after attending our Church mass like Easter or Christmas Eve, my dad would always bring us whole family to have the BEST HAINANESE CHICKEN RICE IN TOWN (his exact words!) located at Wishbone Cafe in Jesselton Hotel Jalan Gaya (Gaya Street). It was quite a popular coffeehouse back then, and my parents would always bump into people they know

Tempura Ebi Kare Udon

2011-09-17T11:57:00.000+08:00

I got to try this Tempura Ebi Kare Udon, which is basically Fried Prawn Curry Noodle at Wojamama 1Borneo the other day, and it was delish! Unfortunately, I didn't get the price for it, but not to worry; I will surely order this for myself sometime soon! If you love curry as well, then you should give this dish a try at any of the Wojamama's restaurant branches. :)

Gunter's Gasthaus German Restaurant

2010-09-26T10:55:00.000+08:00

(entrance) We have always wanted to dine at Gunter's Gasthaus everytime we drive by Jalan Tuaran, and yes, we finally got to do so recently. (what you see as soon as you come in.. beautiful place, isn't it?) As it was quite late (almost 10pm) we didn't know whether they were still open or closed for the night, but we just tried our luck anyway, and were so happy that it was still open! Phew!

2010-02-16T11:57:00.001+08:00

Wei Chuen didn't make any advance plans for our Valentine's Day this year, and in fact, he told me that since it coincides with the Chinese New Year as well, we would only be celebrating the latter. But on that day itself, he told me to get ready for a late lunch, and brought me to a surprise location, which turned out to be Bella Italia in Jesselton Hotel! There was nobody there when we

** Oh my.. this blog was deserted for a LONG time, huh? Our apologies everyone! It's not that we didn't do any food reviews lately; it's just that there's a problem with the notebook; seems like there's a tr*jan that's blocking us from uploading to our online photo sites, thus no photo uploads for a long time!

Our Choice of Thai Restaurant In KK

2009-08-05T11:13:00.003+08:00

*Taken from the previous KK Food Reviews blog, but this restaurant is still our top choice for Thai Restaurant in Kota Kinabalu!*Recently I have this craving for some Tom Yam Goong. I’ve tried a few Thai restaurants here in KK, but some of them aren’t what I expected. So WC brought me to Petagas to eat at Prapeni Thai. The first time I’ve been to this eatery was a couple of years back, and
