Souled Out - Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

-
OMG! Souled Out is here in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah! That was my first impression when I saw Souled Out in Imago Mall. Souled Out used to be my favourite place in KL and I'm so glad that they are here in Sabah. What I love about Souled Out is their environment and food. Great place to chill and hang out with friends. There's TV screen everywhere for you to watch live football too.

This place just opened last month and everything is brand new including the menu. We ordered fried beef noodles & chicken Cordon Bleu. Instead of Bleu it was written as "BLURR" in their menu. Fried beef noodles are flat rice noodles in eggy gravy with generous serving of beef slices, topped with spring onions and ginger. This dish tasted really good. It was flavourful and the beef was really tender. Love it! 

However, chicken Cordon "BLURR" was so-so for me. This dish comes with boneless whole chicken leg wrapped around sausage, cheese and chicken ham, served with cold vegetables on mayo and golden fries. It was deep fried and the battered was slightly overcooked. Instead of a crispy batter it turned out to be dry hard. I was expecting a soft rich cheese to be oozing out from this dish but sadly I can't even see or taste the cheese. Besides that, the fries lack crispiness and I would prefer coleslaw instead of frozen peas and carrots as their cold vegetables.

Service was fast but food portion sizes rather small for us. So, we decided to order dessert! We tried their lava cake and turned out to be so-so for me as well. The cake was warm and has the rich flavour of chocolate but the texture was too dense for me. We don't see any cashew nuts as mentioned in their menu but saw only some corn flakes. On the other hand, vanilla ice cream was good. If only they served a bigger scoop of that yummy ice cream...

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.
