Himbaan Homestay @ Kg Himbaan, Bundu Tuhan

Taking a trip out of the busy city KK is always a YES for me especially going to places which I can get a closer view of the great Mt Kinabalu! As for this time, my friend who is leaving KK soon picked a very nice place in Bundu Tuhan, which is Himbaan Homestay in Kg Himbaan. You may Google this place but the road to this place is bad and you definitely need a heavy duty car to reach here. 

Just something a bit about Bundu Tuhan before I move on. It's just a small town which is not far from Kundasang. It has many small "kampungs" within and most parts of this place can have a nice view of the great mountain. Weather is still cooling and going through the whole Bundu Tuhan road will eventually lead you to Ranau!

And as for this Himbaan Homestay, it is located just slightly below Hounon Ridge Farmstay but Himbaan is a more nature-like place! You may choose to stay in a nice properly built house or you can opt for the tents. Picking the tents (~ RM 90 for a tent for 2 person) is not a bad option because it is well-equipped with mattress, pillows and blankets. Besides, it has a very well-equipped kitchen as well and both sharing-toilets are fixed with heather! Damn.. This is the most luxurious camp that I have ever been to, seriously! And last but not least, it has a Husky which is super friendly and like to run around without irritating your stay there!

Stopped by at a Sinalau Bakas (smoked wild boar) stall while on the way to Bundu Tuhan!

New Kai Seng Seafood Restaurant @ Jalan Kenanga, Pudu, KL

Though this place has existed for quite some time but this is my first time having dinner here. If it wasn't because of Facebook featured this place, I wouldn't have knew this restaurant.

New Kai Seng Seafood Restaurant is located on Jalan Kenanga, area around Pudu. You can Google for this place or even find out the exact location on their Facebook page if you have no idea where it is. As for the location, though it is strategic but parking space is quite limited. Getting there with GRAB is not a bad idea! So, there are many special dishes which they serve e.g. Stir-fried raw noodle with fresh water prawns (生虾伊面), Steamed clams in superior sauce (上汤啦啦), Claypot crabs with coconut milk (瓦煲椰汁蟹), Vietnam pork knuckle (越南炸猪脚) and many many more! Though there are many customers all the time but no worries, their service is still ok.

New Kai Seng Seafood Restaurant. Very limited parking space and the restaurant located strategically around the bend of the road...

Abang J Cafe @ Bandaran, Kota Kinabalu

Finding for good and cheap food in KK again? Go and find Abang J Cafe, which is really cheap. Though there are not many choice on the menu, but all food are sold at very affordable price! They serve simple Western food and some local food as well (but I wish that they have more vege on the menu). As for the waiting time, I can say that it's quite ok because all food served within 30 minutes. Parking can be an issue during lunch time but more parking available if you go at night. They are opened everyday for lunch and dinner (except lunch on Sundays).
