since my blog is constantly under attack, i decided to close the blog entirely
now i will post my blog here in travel & living instead

on the 8th of sept, i decided to drive from tuaran to tenom for breakfast and further drive to sipitang thn come back to kk

as usual i will swing by the tenom market for their signature breakfast which are dry stirred noodle/mee hoon soup with their signature egg roll(chun ken) and pork meatball
all are hand made which is so many people will travel so far just to buy a few back
and they run out quite fast if you're not early, so i suggest u reach here no later than 7AM, best is 6.30AM

after b'fast, i continue my drive to yit foh coffee factory where they have sell many kind of coffee, all of which are home grown
they have also expanded and renovated their place to have home stay which one can stay here overnight if they wish to
the "home stay" is behind this sign board


after yit foh, i continue drive to sipitang which takes 1.5 hours from tenom
the 1st half of the stretch, the road is beautiful....the other half of the stretch, stay slow because they road condition aren't good at all
some of which u have to completely stop and cross slowly
when you reach sipitang, you would see alot of stalls selling fruit..all kinds of fruit, it's basically fruit heaven(some of which are indigenous to sabah)
you can call it durian heaven as well if it is in season because it's sold everywhere and it's cheaper compared to city area


Afterward, i made my way to the Sipitang Esplande which is by the sea..this place should be beautiful when it is sunset time




and you would see people fishing for prawn(i presume) at the esplanade



and how could you come to Sipitang without trying their satay, it's litterally everywhere
all the food court stalls in Sipitang are literally just selling satay
the few good ones like siga-siga unfortunately aren't open that early..they only open starting noon which is when i was leaving
but other stall are fine


i found out that their satay isn't that special, it's that peanut gravy that they gave u that is special
the usual gravy elsewhere, u can still taste the peanut in bits
but in sipitang, the peanut in the gravy is super fine...u can taste the peanut flavour but you won't feel the peanut
