Sunset Bar and Grill at Nexus Resort & Spa Karambunai - Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

-
I love lazy beach holiday, to do absolutely nothing but laze around the resort and beach. There's no hawker centre or fast food nearby the resort unless you are driving yourself to the nearby town. We wanted to spend more time at the resort, so we decided to have our dinner here at Nexus Resort & Spa Karambunai. There's few restaurant for you to choose from - Sunset Bar and Grill, Kingfisher Restaurant, Penyu Restaurant, Olives Restaurant and Noble House Restaurant.

We choose Sunset Bar and Grill because this restaurant is located beside the beach. You can hear the sound of waves lapping the beach while enjoying your dinner. The restaurant was quite empty on a weekday. Only three tables were occupied including ours. Such a relaxing dinner as you can eat slowly while enjoying the sea breeze.

We ordered two main dish - chicken and seabass. Chicken was good. It was tender and juicy. Grilled spring chicken served with potato chips, mushroom in garlic cream sauce on crisp green salad. On the other hand, seabass taste fishy which I don't really enjoy. It was oven baked served on mashed potato and seasonal veggie with pimientos (capsicum) sauce.

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
