Sabah - KK 1-4 Oct Part I

I have been waiting for this holiday since months ago...
no much preparation, no much research too. My purposes are to eat seafood, big crab, fresh prawn etc etc etc... and to get myeslf tanned darker... so... i prepared a tanning oil!!! hahaha...
Our hotel for the 4 days and 3 nights was TuneHotel which is real far from the town!! around 30 minutes ride! If you are not renting a car or not willing to pay for the taxi, this hotel is highly not recommended! RM40 to just take us from airport to the hotel. But there are alternative way too if you are willing to walk for a distance to wait for bus! TuneHotel is located at 1Borneo which is the largest shopping mall in east Malaysia... there are total 5 hotels in that mall. and if you have no idea where 1Borneo is, it is nearby University Malaysia Sabah. In order to attract more people or tourist to 1Borneo, they have this shutter bus that will bring you to town (Warisan Square), Sutera Harbour, and last stop at Tanjung Ara. We were depending on this free shutter bus for the 4 days and 3 nights stay in KK.
The checkin time is 2pm and someone was super hungry and can't wait to hunt for food. You know me, whenever travel to another place, I like to try out different food especially the local famous food!! and this... we have Pizza and the famous Pizza Hut!!! My god... pls don't laugh because someone's tummy can't wait anymore!

The lunch cost us RM40++ somemore not a local food!!!

After lunch was my sleeping time... yeah, the night before I slept at 3am after flying from Penang to LCCT, and not forgetting the stupid application file that being formatted where I need to come out another solution just right before I think I can peacefully off to my holiday!!

We catch the free shutter bus at 530pm (or 6pm) down to town to hunt for seafood!!!

hehe... Crab... and Prawn... please welcome me.............

To hunt for a cheaper food rather than have the seafood at Port View or other more expensive restaurant, we chose this open air seafood restaurants... there are few restaurants in this Sedco Complex, just a walking distance from Warisan Square, the dropping point of the shutter bus in town.

prawnFresh prawn which is a must have dish in KK... the fresh-ness is something that you can't find in any of the seafood restaurant here...

wet butter crabButter (wet) crab... this is very much delicious... I have never try seafood with butter before... and this... yum!!!
