It was weekend and it's a time for us to enjoy good food!  

It was the first time I tasted the latest hot topic in town - SOULed OUT. They said that the main one in Kuala Lumpur was good and non the less, KK branch was unexpectedly good as well. Service was well with friendly staffs around. Here are some of the dishes we had!

又是周末了！ 也就是享受美食时刻咯！目前名气满满的一间餐馆， 位于亚庇的 Imago Mall KK Times Square 已经抓着亚庇人心。服务不错， 美食也 okay。 看看我们那天享用的美食吧！

- Appetizer 开胃菜 -

Seafood green salad. I like their salad with prawns and grilled Salmon along, a dish that is worth for a try.

我喜欢他们家的开胃菜。三文鱼的加入令它更好吃！

- Mojito -

A must try beverage! Although I think I can make one of my own since I have planted Peppermint recently. Good news is they are having 50% off for mojitos beverage during Happy Hour. ;)

Mojito 是他们家的招牌饮料之一！那天我们还享受了五折的 Happy Hour Promo!

- 关于 SOULed OUT Behind SOULed OUT -

- SOULed OUT -

- Grilled Salmon with spaghetti -

In fact, SOULed OUT serving mainly on Malaysian food and add on with Western cuisine as well. Portion was satisfying. Indian selection, Chinese selection, Malay selection et cetera.

- Chicken Cordon Blue -

- 甜品时刻 Our Desserts -

I don't really felt good with their desserts, they should have work better on this. Chocolate lava was presented in a "wet" way while the Banana split should have been presented in a very surprising way. Haagen Daz Ice Cream was good! I like ice creams! Anyway, there's space to improve on their desserts!

我们喜欢的甜品， 但是甜品让我有点伤心， 除了那个Haagen Daz 冰淇淋。 Chocolate Lava 以及香蕉船可以再接再励吧！味道有， 但看着它们好像怪怪的。

Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. 亚庇， 沙巴。

Lifestyle. Tradition. Bon Appetit! 时尚。 传统。 美食。

There's always things to be surprised once hotels were uplifted. Non the less, Hyatt Regency Kinabalu were renovated two years ago as well.

翻新后的亚庇凯悦酒店的确有不一样的风格。

- Tanjung Ria Kitchen -

The blending of of local culture. The Batik fabric of one corner at Tanjung Ria Kitchen symbolized the local native culture designs. And same goes to the wall with native prints.

Thus, Tanjung Ria Kitchen has a main dining room featuring open kitchen concept, the lounge, poolside bar and the residence (phase 2).

接触了本地风味的凯悦酒店，我们可以看见许多本地文化彩色， 尤其是当我们前进了他们家餐厅时， 更可以清楚看到他们对本地文化的印象。

- 中式站 The Chinese Corner -

Tanjung Ria Kitchen 采用了开放式厨房， 好让客人可以即时看见厨师的烹饪方式与食材。中式站也只是其中之一的美食。 他们家餐厅所含有的美食站包挂了印度餐， 马来餐， 西式， 甜品等等。食物的味道很不错哦！满重口味的。

The traditional buffet would be presenting the dishes on a tray or huge plates for guests to grab. However, the new concept of open kitchens by Hyatt Regency Kinabalu has take center stage as the chefs prepare all orders a la minute upon request.

I just love the open kitchens concept where I can place my bowl of noodles serving hot and delicious by the chefs. The food serving by Hyatt Regency Kinabalu still delicious as before.

- Open Kitchen Concept - The Fruit Station -

- 烤羊 Roasted Lamb -

The roasted lamb do taste marvelous, the meat texture was just nice to be consume. Not too dry as well.

For our information, Tanjung Ria Kitchen has halal certified kitchen presenting the best of local and western cuisine in a contemporary setting. Glad to say that Tanjung Ria Kitchen provides an ultimate dining experience for guests like us who would love to savor popular dishes in one seating.

- My Dish and Cheese Naan -

I could not agree more that Tanjung Ria Kitchen serve savory and delicious eateries and have the taste of authentic Malay cuisine and Indian cuisine as well. Boy, I miss their Saag paneer (classic Indian dish of cooked spinach studded with cubes of fried paneer cheese).

Anyone who manage to have buffet at Hyatt Regency Kinabalu, they must try their Cheese Naan! Baked at the open kitchen and serve the cheesy naan within minutes and taste cheesy and delicious! Not dry and it was just cheesy chewy!

- The Spices -

With the design component of Tanjung Ria Kitchen incorporates a blend of natural material from the region, while a play of neutral colours, subtle textures, mood lighting and personal selected sound contribute to the total experience.

Kota Belud【沙巴玩】Nature & River Cruise Trip 古打毛律一日游 #FireFlies #Birding #NatureLover

Kota Belud, Sabah. 沙巴， 古打毛律。

It was the first trip to explore the nature side of Kota Belud. Before this, I had the chance only to have a bowl of Kota Belud noodles or a passerby to reach another town. I do admire the paddy field that Kota Belud could offer, it was a calm sight. :)

It took us roughly two hours to reach Kota Belud. There were a few scenery spots that Jeremy brought us too and here are some of the extraordinary home to the villages/ native that we were able to experience.

- Mechanical Hand Water Pump -

Kota Belud Day Trip - Mechanical Water PumpWe had to chance to experience the mechanical water pump at Kota Belud!
Posted by Meitzeu.com on Sunday, 3 January 2016

Serving the villagers since 1980's until the era where electrical pump was introduced.

Everyone was excited to see the mechanical hand water pump and even took a short video with it!

- Assembly of Scarecrows -

It frighten us when we were getting nearer to the secondary school, we saw many "people" in clothes was assembling at the field. In fact, the school was creating a Malaysian record for that event "Orang-Orang".

- Paddy Field, The River, The Sky, The Breeze -

- Kota Belud Town : Almost 100 years staircase -

A staircase for the villages to bring things to sell at the weekly market. It was there since many years ago.

- Kota Belud Noodle -

Tuaran have Tuaran Mee, Tamparuli have Tamparuli Mee. Non the less, Kota Belud do have their noodle "branding" as well. The coffee shop located at the middle of the blocks of shops. It was sad to say that the shop will be abolish soon and the whole area will be uplifted into bus terminal. 

The bowl of noodle maybe will be the last time we had.

- Temple -

#OnlyInSabah We appreciate every culture and religion in Sabah, even the temple was located next to a Islam school. We should respect another religion, we respect them and vice versa.

- Penjaram -

Jeremy told us that they have a local delicacies served during tea time. We had a cup of coffee with Penjaram, banana fritters and others. It was tasty and clean serving that Borneo Bayau offers. A family based tour company that I often believe.

- Selfie with Horse -

Did I told you that Kota Belud also know as the home to Cowboys from the East (The Bajau Horsemen). The villagers believe that horses are the symbol of wealthy and the during Tamu Besar Kota Belud, an annual event held at Kota Belud, the Bajau Horsemen will dressed their horse and ponies in respondents customs, while displaying their unrivaled horse riding skills.

We were lucky to witness and even had a ride on the dressed horse that the Bajau horseman brought to the compound of Borneo Bayau Tours. Such an obedient horse he have.

Bajau horsemen dress their horses and ponies in resplendent costumes, while displaying their unrivaled horse-riding skills. A great time to witness traditional sports such as buffalo racing and the crowning of the Sarempak/Senisip Beauty Queens. Check the event listing to see when this year's Tamu Besar Kota Belud will take place. - See more at: http://www.sabahtourism.com/destination/tamu-kota-belud#sthash.amuRhlhN.dpuf

- Tempasuk River -

It was time for us to have river cruising along Tempasuk River. It is another river nearer to Kota Kinabalu that we could enjoy the nature and even to search for the famous PROBOSCIS MONKEYS! They have big size Proboscis monkeys there!

- We found Proboscis Monkeys -

- Proboscis Monkeys -

Certainly huge right? We even spotted small babies!

We saw the local Malay Bajau houses along the river. IT WAS HUGE! Different feeling during the river cruising.

- The Sunset -
