Keningau Paus

What so special about paus in Keningau you might ask.

Well you have the typical cha siu pau, red bean pau… wait a minute.

Petai Pau? Mui Choy Pau? Peanut Pau? Pumpkin pau? Oh gawd, seldom you see these kind of paus being sold in peninsular Malaysia.

All the paus are handmade as indicated by the sign, and taste fantastic also.

And they are cheap also… 6 paus for something like RM6 if I remember correctly.

Sabah Day 1 – Kuo Man Restaurant

When we eventually arrived at Kota Kinabalu, it was already lunch time. So my wife’s 3rd uncle took us for lunch one of famous eateries in Kota Kinabalu – Kuo Man Restaurant.

This restaurant is famous for their homemade noodles and fish cutlets. Too bad fish cutlets were sold out when we were there. :(

This is the version of dry noodles. Taste like a mixture of wan tan mee & meehun.

Sabah Trip – Day 1

Only slept at around 4.30am+ before boarding an AirAsia plane for Kota Kinabalu at 9.30. Contradictory to public perception, AirAsia planes are actually quite punctual. It left on the dot at 9.30 and reach Kota Kinabalu International airport at 12.50-1pm.

The LCCT seems to have more eateries compared to KLIA for some weird reason. MCD, Old Town Kopitiam, MarryBrown, Taste of Asia etc…

The check-in procedure for domestic flights also seem to be more lenient compared to international flights. They appear to encourage you to take more hand carry stuff above the plane rather than put it in cargo.
