MY LABUAN GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE BEFORE GOING HOME - PART 2

1ST MARCH 2023 ~ There was this eating place just beside Labuan Point Hotel. I decided to visit the place for breakfast before leaving Labuan in the afternoon.

The cook/owner of this eating shop is actually a Johorian so one could get Johor food for breakfast here. The fact that he came from the same state as me made me feel at home already.

This should be my very last post of my Labuan - Kota Kinabalu - Kundasang - Ranau road trip from 24th February to 1st March 2023. I have to thank my driver/tourist guide/travel buddy, Mr. Zaman Kadir, for all the effort and time spent throughout the trip. I just wonder when we could do this again in the future.

MY LABUAN GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE BEFORE GOING HOME - PART ONE

28TH FEBRUARY 2023 ~ It was already late when we arrived at Labuan after the long drive from Ranau to Kota Kinabalu and finally to Menumbok before taking the ferry to the island. The only restaurant that was still accessible was JJ Nazar in town and we had no intention to find other eating shop at this hour.

The place was popular among the locals as there were still many diners having their meals even though it was already late.

Roti Canai never tasted so good after the long journey of more than 12 hours.

THE QUICK SHOPPING AT FILIPIN MARKET IN KOTA KINABALU

28TH FEBRUARY 2023 ~ The first challenge when we arrived at the famous Filipin Market was to go through the bad traffic congestion in Kota Kinabalu city. The next challenge was to find a parking space. We were lucky as there was an empty spot near the fish market so it made our life easier,

The market was divided into many sections. There were even people selling in the open air outside the market.

The first section we went to was the place which sold seafood products. I managed to get the blue eyes anchovies, some local snacks and preserved shrimp cake.

The next part of the market was the hunt for the usual souvenirs like t-shirts. keychains and fridge magnets as souvenirs for friends.

Everything was done in such a short time as we had to get a ferry to catch to take us back to Labuan.

Will definitely come back to this place again when I make a return trip to Kota Kinabalu one day.

THE 24TH DAY OF EID 1444H

We had had Teacher's Day in school and Eid celebration from morning until noon. Right after that, the English teachers of SMK Dato' Jaafar came to my house for the Eid visit.

It was actually more of a chit chat slot followed by photoshoot session but everybody was happy. I was glad my colleagues could make it this year and hope they will still continue visiting for many more years to come.

THE MARKET NEAR TAMPARULI BRIDGE

28th FEBRUARY 2023 ~ There was a market near Tamparuli Bridge and it was the opportunity to walk around and see. My travel partner was actually searching for a restroom and I on the other hand went to explore the market.

Basically, there were people who were selling outside the market and people who ran their business in the actual market building.

I literally just walked around the place and observed. I would definitely need more time to see what were the items sold closely. If you plan to visit the market, you would have to allocate more time, especially if you plan to shop. Still, I was happy to get the chance to stop at the market for a short while.
