It is always an amazing experience when you wake up at a water village in the morning, surrounded by the sea and the morning sun breaking through the horizon…
Day two began waking up from a lovely restful sleep at my loft queen bed at Jono’s place….
So recently, my friends and I went back to Tawau and Semporna… we wanted to do a bit of everything and to see what Tawau and Semporna could offer, and it was a mind-blowing amazing trip!!!
I researched motorbike rental companies in Kota Kinabalu and around Sabah, and found ‘A Scooter Monkey’ offers the cheapest price with excellent bikes. The good things did not stop there, as their services were outstanding, and the owners were very helpful and friendly. They were quick to assist me with questions and troubleshooting during my trip through the phone. They also lend out items such as phone holders and containers for extra petrol without charge. If you are still in doubt, just take a look at their flawless 5-stars Google reviews!
In the year of 2020, I flew to Sabah and stayed there for awhile for almost three months. During one of the months, I rented a nice motorbike from A Scooter Monkey, and began my planned journey of traveling around Sabah on a bike. It was supposed to be as long as 30 days but when the pandemic’s new wave striked the East coast, I had to stop and head back to the capital.

My first time to Sabah, Kota Kinabalu Malaysia for a 2D1N trip over the weekend. I was searching for a place to stay and decided on Kota Kinabalu Marriott Hotel. This 5-star hotel has a total of 332 rooms with a balcony and its location is close to Centre Point. We paid for less than RM400 per night.
Honestly, I’ve had better brownies. Jeng’s brownies were kind of dry and thin and didn’t have a satisfying bite to them. The creamy cheesecake brownies were a little better. Don’t expect the really rich, dense brownies that you get from other cafes (at a much higher price). Despite the taste being nothing special, we bought brownies from Jeng’s a couple of times during our stay in KK. Jeng’s Homemade Brownies are still a nice sweet treat for a cheap price.
The market is in the heart of downtown Kota Kinabalu so most tourists will be hanging out nearby. While the market may not have many items of interest for tourists, it is a great place to soak up the local culture and experience a traditional Sabahan market. If it’s inconvenient to be in the area on a Sunday morning, you can safely skip the Gaya Street Sunday Market. Most likely, you won’t buy anything and it’ll take you less than an hour to see all the stalls.
You shouldn’t miss the Api Api Night Food Market on Gaya Street if you’re in Kota Kinabalu on a Friday or Saturday night. We went to the market twice during our stay in KK because there was so much to eat. It’s also a much more interesting dinner option than the restaurants around. There’s a huge variety of drinks and freshly made local cuisine that visitors are sure to find something that will get their mouths watering.
沙巴亞庇市的美食大多聚集在加雅街 (Gaya Street) ,小小的街道三步一小吃、五步一餐廳的全都是名店來著,但有個特點就是幾間有名的餐廳大都設有分店,分店都選在加雅街 (Gaya Street)開設,唯獨怡豐茶室 (Yee Fung)沙巴僅此一間無分號,至今已有三十年歷史,生意是越來越好
This stall at the Wisma Atria Food Republic is allegedly from Sabah in East Malaysia with this old recipe of fried pork on rice noodles.
