Salut Seafood Restaurant - Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

-
If you happen to visit Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, I'm sure your friend will tell you not to miss the seafood here! Majority of the seafood restaurant is famous for their fresh seafood, including this Salut Seafood Restaurant, located 16 mins (12km) drive from Nexus Resort & Spa Karambunai. Since we were on a short getaway at Nexus Resort & Spa Karambunai, we decided to drive out and have our dinner here.

The place is rather secluded and you might need Google maps to get you there. The road going in from the main road was a dim gravel road. Drive slowly and just follow the dim lighting. This wooden restaurant next to the sea was quite empty when we reached there around 7.30pm. It looks a bit rundown.

We ordered three dishes - fish, prawn and scallops. My favourite dish was the scallop with oyster sauce. Scallops were cooked to perfection and sauce was delicious but both butter prawn and steam fish were just so-so for me. Not the best butter prawn that I had but prawns were fresh and sweet. Same goes for the fish. Frankly speaking, don't think I will drive all the way here just to have the seafood unless I'm in this area.

(Total bill RM 145.75 including 6% GST)

Jollibee is a Filipino multinational chain of fast food restaurants. On the day of arrival, we asked our friendly Grab driver what is the must-try food in Philippines and he mentioned Jollibee. So here we at Jollibee located inside Landmark Department Store just 4 minutes (250m) walking distance from  New World Makati Hotel . We ordered 2 pieces of chicken served with rice and drink. Rice is soft. Fried chicken is crispy, flavourful and tender. It comes together with a brown gravy which taste like KFC mashed potatoes gravy. Overall it's good.

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to leave
