Tasty Delights

Located in Mile 7 Taman Tyng near the Pei Dan Gau shop............ Truth is, we wanted to eat at the Pei Dan Gao shop but it wasn't open so we ending up picking this shop :

(Pic taken on different days)

Clockwise from below : Siu Mai, Pei Dan Siu Mai, Beef Balls, Pai Guat, Ham Dan Siu Mai
Comments? Siu Mai is ok ok, Beef Balls have no beef taste unfortunately. Other than that, we enjoyed the Pei Dan, Ham Dan Siu Mai and the Pai Guat....(yeaa esp the Pei Dan :p)

Kon Lo Mee with Pork Balls, Wantan, and Za Yuk

Kon Lo Mee with just Pork Balls

Char Siew Kon Lo Mee

I've eaten better Kon Lo Mees elsewhere but this is not too bad, at least it has the basic Sandakan Kon Lo Mee taste and I really missed Kon Lo Mee aloooot while i was away form Sandakan! However ..ingredients wise can be improved. Conclusion? the Dim Sums saved the day! :pppp

Yum Yum 2 a.k.a Tsim Sha Tsui

New restaurant at the new town, Prima Jaya located just opposite to Indah Jaya, in front of Taman Tinosan, next to Yu Yuan Secondary School. Need more instructions? To be precise, this restaurant is located just at the 'main road' to enter Prima Jaya. Just turning into Jalan Tinosan, and turn right into the shop lots. You can see Yum Yum a.k.a Tsim Sha Tsui on your right.

They serve mainly chinese food, but you can find simple steaks to burgers here. Not anything elaborated. Their price are decent, in my opinion, the food here worth the price.

Avocado Juice
Thick and rich.nuff' said
The only complains I have is that, it's not chilled enough!

Apple Juice

Yong Zhau-styled Fried Rice
Notice the big prawns? I love this fried rice, it is flavoursome as the wok used is hot enough, hence producing enough 'wok hei' - hot enough

Herbal Chicken
A very appetizing chinese herbs marinated chicken. Indeed very delicious, yet a simple dish, just nice to have it with a bowl of white rice or just to have it as a soup.

Chinese-styled Chicken Chop Rice
Savoury fried chicken with rice. I'm not in the mood for fried items at the moment. Thus, I can't say that I enjoy this very much. However, I do love the amount of onions on this dish =p

(Forgot name)
Normal, decent dish.

One of the big prawns in the fried rice earlier. It's fresh and juicy!

ABC with Ice-cream
Life saver during the weather like this!

Everyone, almost every table there orders ABC (Ais Batu Campur) a.k.a shaved ice at the shop and so I ordered one of the 6 shaved ice item on the menu. This Ice-cream ABC is only RM4.50 and the amount can be shared with 2 other people! It's cheap and taste great! Seriously, I personally enjoy this.

Unfortunately, the restaurant close at 9.30pm, hence can't be going there for supper tho.

Cool City

Cool City (previously Cool) in Bandar Kim Fung Mile4 front row..impossible to not spot it
I'm not going to post pictures of the drinks (Pearl Tea etc etc), assuming that everyone already knew about it..but anyways..i personally prefer QQIce's pearl tea hehehe

I like the Polo Bun there but unfortunately I don't have a picture of it atm..

Tau Sar Peng (Dorayaki)

I've eaten the real dorayaki from Japan before, and I can say that this is as close as 75% - taste wise, maybe not the bun texture but I'm fine with it hehh

Wing Hup Lee

Located in Mile 5 (well, i actually don't really know how to describe the directions but it is located among the first row of shops if you are driving to Taman Sibuga via the road from St. Monica Primary School)


^ I see egg tarts (their signature food)

But anyways, I also heard that it is famous for Har Mee (Prawn Mee) and that it is kinda thick/strong.. but unfortunately I only get to eat this the 3rd time I visited the shop because they only sell it on Sundays :( ..idk if they changed it to daily serving tho ~ let's hope so ^^

Har Mee

Unfortunately before I get to lay my hands chopsticks on it my friend was emphasizing about the thickness so I kinda put too high of an expectation on it..well, not as thick as what she described but actually it is not bad at all (and not spicy/hot/pedas for my standard which is like...not high, lol!)


But my previously failed plans to eat Har Mee allowed me to tried their Laksa which is not bad at all too!

Laksa

At least it is hotter/spicier than Har Mee


Signature Egg Tart:


We waited long enough for these because they were so so busy baking the first hundred egg tarts which are not for sale, they were prebooked TT

Anyways, I personally prefer Chung Ming Hing's ..This one is kinda thin crusted- really thin
but that's just me ^^;; hee

Familiar site?

Novelty Cream Tarts

Just a short post =p

Various topping of cream tarts (?)

Tea time? Or just itching for something that is bite-sized and taste nice (?) Gotta try these cute bite-size cream tarts (?) from Novelty. Not sure if all branches have it or not. I kinda got these from the Mile 4 branch. For those who do not know where does this branch located, it is just at the other side of Tai Chung Supermarket. The mile 4 market is just in front of it, just across the road.

Basically I've forgotten the name of the pastry here, just assume it's called as cream tart @@ (to be updated with the correct name) Not everybody like cream, but this is kinda different from the normal creams you've tried out there. It's not buttercream for sure. Give it a try =P

Kedai Kopi Mee Ngar

Breakfast anyone?

Half-boiled eggs with soya sauce and pepper

There are too many shops with this name in Sandakan, this shop is located in town. In front of the town field, in between D'image and another branch of Kedai RM2, which formerly is Rex Cinema. Not detailed enough about the location? Since the town area is often a confusion for most people. If you are driving all the way down from Jalan Utara, then follow the main road all the way down until you reach the traffic lights in front of the 'fountain'. It's just at the row in front of you then. More direction needed? Just ask us then =p

Toast with kaya and butter

The typical toast that you can find in Sandakan I guess. Some might not be familliar with this 'kind' of toast, as most of the place offer toasts which the bread is so thick. This is a thin slice of toast. It's not stingy, it's the default size of the original pre-prepared bread. I prefer this way because the bread will be crispy and crunchy as it is thinner. Personal perference here.

Mix everything up - and you get a hearty (?) meal minus the unsightly image of it =p

Dip the crispy toast together. Then you'll be having a nice breakfast altogether. Yes,a very simple meal that you can do it at home. But the kaya used in this shop is homemade. Now that's a lil' different.. no?

Imperial Bayview Restaurant (Dim Sum)

Located in town smacked right above the aromatic fish market, is the Halal Dim Sum restaurant..Halal by means, no pork-ish dim sum..just chicken and lots of fresh prawns as compensation..

Fish Market, here you can see all the behind-the-scene work while you eat



And also the beautiful sea(?) but no worries, there is no fishy smell in the restaurant itself


THE Dim Sum - Siew Mai

Just chicken and prawn but it's fine


Steamed Seafood Dumpling



Har Gao

The prawns..indeed very fresh tho


Steamed Spinach Dumpling

This is nice too, at least it is not all prawns

But at this point I am already sick of all the prawns ^^;;


Stir Fried Carrot Cake

Not too bad for restaurant's standard but still far away from the one in Mile4 Market


Chicken 'Char Siew' Cheong Fen

The lady asked what kind of filling do I want, honestly I nearly blurted out Char Siew ^^;;
And honestly without pork char siew this is just wrong to me..Didn't like this at all..


Chicken Ham Sui Kok

Not a big fan of it


Deep Fried Prawn Dumpling

This I like..


Chicken Wu Kok

This is also very wrong without Char Siew

And look at all of them, without pork they all just look and taste pale..
The only-prawn dishes are not bad tho, but I can get sick of prawns pretty fast so....
Sigh~

I'd rather go Sandakan Hotel in this case
