Budget Stay and Mahua Waterfall @ Tambunan

My friends and I have made a short trip to Tambunan and Keningau recently and this is my second trip there. Feel good to be back to places which are far from the city with not much traffic congestion and have some good spots to drink morning coffee rather than my 3-in-1 Nescafe which I used to drink every morning! Besides, it was an eventful day for the residents in Tambunan as they had their Tambunan Run 2015 in conjunction with the Harvest Festival. No, not me! I didn't join but my friends did.. Ha-ha..

Everyone looks eager to win the race! =) All the best guys....

Just a bit of pictures of where we stayed for a night in Tambunan. It was the dormitory at St Theresa's Church and located in its compound. If so happen that you are looking for a simple place to stay at Tambunan, this can be your option! Price range for each room is about RM 20 to 40 (very reasonable). No air-cond but the weather is cooling enough to get you to sleep soundly at night and lastly, it's all shared bathroom.

RM 40 per room.. Reasonable priced! 

And what else to do in Tambunan? It's definitely its beautiful Mahua Waterfall! I missed the super cool water so so much!!!!

Times when the crowd is not here yet! =)

 And you have the waterfall all by your own! =p

To be continued....

Kedai Kopi Yee Fung @ Gaya Street, KK

If you ask Mr Google about Kedai Kopi Yee Fung, you will definitely get a lot of links because this shop has been at Gaya Street for many many years! If you have no idea of what to order, I  would recommend you to order Laksa. There are not many places which sells good laksa in Sabah but Yee Fung is one of the good one. Price for the food is quite reasonable after the price adjustment because of GST. So never leave this place out if you are here for holiday! It's easy to locate and come to this place. Make sure that you are here early to avoid big crowds especially during weekends and public holidays.

Located same row with MadBen cafe at Gaya Street...

Ice Lemon Ham Kat and 2-Layers Ice Milk tea.. RM 3 for each...

Yee Fung Laksa (RM 7), the most popular food to order here! Highly recommended... 

 Yee Fung Ngiu Chap (RM 7), suitable for those who likes spare parts. Just feel that the broth doesn't have the beef smell and taste. I still recommend Laksa more than this...

There are some other choices on the menu as well, maybe you can share the portion if you have more people in your group! Enjoy and have a nice weekend! =)

Foo Phing Dim Sum @ Hilltop

If you are looking for one of the best place and complete dim sum in KK, I would recommend you Foo Phing Dim Sum. This shop is located at the same row of shop with Restaurant Makanan Sedap and "Jia Xiang" beef noodle! You can hardly miss them because they occupy quite a number of shops! =) You can wake up as early as 7am for breakfast at Foo Phing for their best Lotus Leaf rice a.k.a He Ye Fan (River Leaf Rice) and Custard bun a.k.a Liu Sha Bao (Golden Lava Steamed Bun). Price wise is affordable and slightly cheaper as compared to many other places. No service charge but they charge GST!

Enjoy and have a nice day! =)
