Sabah - Papar : Leong Yung Hua 梁荣华饭店 - The Famous Roasted Pork here!

Sabah Travel : Papar

My mom always said that there's one shop that having one of the best BBQ Roasted Pork and Pork Yam.

I have been here before, but can't really recall how it taste and recent visit to Papar for "jalan-jalan dekat Sabah".

Did I told you that Sabah having all kinds of noodle named after each province, from Tuaran Mee, Tamparuli Mee, Kota Belud Mee and Sandakan Mee. I don't think Papar claimed having Papar mee, but for sure having the best roasted pork here at Papar.

Operated for more than 80 years from older generation until the current generation of the 3rd and 4th. The name Leong Yung Hua 梁荣华 was named after their great grandfather who were originated from China, and why do the shop was named such, its all because Chinese always named after our name back then, no fancy signature, and especially the recipe by their great grandfather as well.

I always wonder what does a small town like Papar could offer for meal. Not many for sure. ;) If you know any other good recommendation here in Papar, do let me know!

【沙巴游】 Papar - Borneo Cultural Village

Trip with Tropical Holidays Paradise (THP)

During one fine afternoon, I was invited to for a trip to Borneo Cultural Village (BCV) together with THP.

Located at Papar, a new cultural village is running their business to allow tourists and also the local to experience a bit of the Borneo natives lifestyle and tradition.

First impression was great! As if we were entering a real village and with ladies who were fluent with Chinese language for explanation while introducing various tribes which could be found in Borneo.

Unlike some other cultural villages, BCV offers more than 5 tribes for guests to get know more about Borneo. As far as I remember, we can visit their Traditional Papar House, Traditional Brunei House, Chinese House, Murut House, Penampang House, Bajau House, Tidung House and others as well.

Here are some of the houses and local delicacies and activities that we shall expect when we visit BCV in near future. :) Do enjoy!
