Day 2 in Shangri-La. We had an relaxing morning, sleeping in and having a late breakfast at the restaurant on site. We had the option of breakfast at the Horizon Lounge or at Cafe TATU but we chose the Cafe since there seems to be a lot more options. The lounge did provide table side… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 22: Kota Kinabalu

This morning, we finally had the chance to eat at I love Yoo! downstairs in Imago. I’ve been eyeing this place for a while now. They serve congee, soy milk and fried Chinese donuts. Reminds me of our Taiwan trip. Aaron and I both had the congee donut set which came with a cup of… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 21: Kota Kinabalu

It was Sunday and more relatives were in town so we went out for a family dim sum @ Lok Tien. They were very busy when we got there, so we were grateful that others in our party arrived early and got a table already. Actually there were so many of us, we took over… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 20: Kota Kinabalu

This morning, to continue our self-pampering before the Lunar New Year, we got our hair done at Albert’s Saloon at KK Times Square. Apparently, the stylist here is Aaron’s mom’s cousin. As it is approaching the Lunar New Year, they are also charging a surcharge on the price of their hair cuts so the pricing… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 19: Kota Kinabalu

Time to visit another specialty coffee. Aaron’s pick for the day was Print Cafe in KK Times Square. Apparently, they also had another location named Nature Coffee at Suria Sabah Mall. The concept this cafe was interesting as it was also a print shop in the back. You can also print documents here as there was… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 18: Kota Kinabalu

This morning’s breakfast was simple. I just had some peanut butter toast at home with the baby. We discovered a children’s indoor playground in Imago so we let her play a little there before her nap. It was only RM25 (~$8 CAD) for the whole day with in and out privileges, much more reasonable than… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 17: Kota Kinabalu

Another day, another cute coffee shop to visit. Our choice of coffee shop for the day was Nook Cafe. They had a breakfast menu here. I had the salmon bagel and Aaron had the full breakfast including eggs, chicken sausage, smoked salmon, sautéed mushrooms, chili, toast, and salad.  Cappucino Nook Breakfast Salmon bagel Afterwards, we… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 16: Kota Kinabalu

Today for breakfast, we ate some of the buns we bought at the market the other day. I had the pandan one. Pandan is such a popular flavour here so I had to try this one. It was pretty good fluffy bun with a crispy exterior (since we reheated it in the airfryer here). We mostly… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 15: Kota Kinabalu

Today was Sunday, so Aaron’s mom went to pick up some goodies from the market on Gaya street. We got to try the OG nasi lemak which is an all-in-one simple breakfast package in a banana leaf. We also tried various different sticky rice wrapped snacks and sweets wrapped in various leaves. OG nasi lemak… Continue reading Malaysia Trip 2022/2023 Day 13: Kota Kinabalu
