Labuan - Day 3

-
Mortar Cafe Lounge (located next to Lazenda Hotel) is just 4 minutes drive (850 m) from Dorsett Grand Labuan. We checked out from the hotel before 12pm and had our lunch here. The restaurant looks cozy and comfortable. I ordered seafood soup kon lo mee (seafood dry noodles) while my partner ordered nasi padang. My noodles were too salty for my liking and ended up I have to dipped it into the soup to reduce the saltiness. My partner on the other hand, enjoyed his lunch very much. There's no denying that he loves rice a lot. So if there's rice, he's a happy person. :)

We took the 3.30pm ferry back to Menumbok and before the departure time, we did a last minute shopping at One Stop duty-free shop. Instead of buying chocolates, I ended up with beers. Don't get me wrong. I'm not a drinker but I just enjoy trying different types of beer. The ferry depart on schedule and we reached Menumbok Ferry Terminal 1.5 hours later. Charges for car with one passenger from Labuan Ferry Terminal to Menumbok is RM40 and additional passenger is RM2.50 each.

On the way back home, we stopped by D'soka Restaurant and had our dinner there. I had sup ikan goreng with bee hoon (fried fish soup with vermicelli) while my partner had rice with ikan tiga rasa (sweet, sour and spicy fish). Overall food was just okay. Finally before 8pm we reached home...

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.
