Port View Restaurant
We visited Kota Kinabalu about a week ago for a travel blog-related activity. And on the first night, Sabah Tourism Board and Tourism Malaysia-Manila were kind enough to host our dinner together with some bloggers and Philippine print media including writers from Philippine Star, and Manila Standard, among others.
It was a Malaysian-seafood inspired dinner and honestly, their names were very hard to remember, not to mention that I was busy with the briefing about the matter at hand – backbacking in Kota Kiinabalu. 🙂
So allow me to simply share the photos and basic names of the dishes we had. Enjoy!
Fried Squid (Calamares)
Port View Seafood Restaurant
Steamed Prawn
Shrimp Salad
Sabah Vegetables (close to our 'Kangkong' but not leafy - more on trunks/stems)
This is a small octopus dish (yes, you read that right)
Coconut Jelly
It was actually a quick dinner at Port View Restaurant as we headed back to Gaya Center Hotel; where related stories here.
If you get to drop by Kota Kinabalu City in Sabah Malaysia, you can find Port View Seafood Village at Lot 18 Waterfront Esplanade, Tun Fuad Stephens Road, Kota Kinabalu. (088) 221 753.

Remember the “However-You-Want-It Frappuccino Blended Beverage†article two months ago which showed ways to create blended beverages with a variety of syrups, toppings and intensities? Well, here’s some newer flavors Starbucks came up with which will be offered starting tomorrow, June 28!
Black Sesame Green Tea Cream Frappuccino
Introducing the new Black Sesame Green Tea Cream Frappuccino and Soy Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino blended beverages!
The Black Sesame Green Tea Cream Frappuccino blended beverage is a mix of “matcha powder and black sesame powder, blended with ice and topped with whipped cream and black sesame seeds” while Soy Strawberries and Cream Frappucino is made with “soy milk blended with ice, infused with strawberry sauce and topped with whipped cream.”
Want to create something uniquely yours? Here’s how to create your however you want it Frappuccino blended beverages:

Or choose “cream†for a coffee-free beverage:

I’ve tried and I’ve discovered that I’m lousy at experimenting with my Starbucks concoctions so I guess I’ll settle with trying out the new Starbucks Black Sesame Green Tea Cream Frappuccino and Soy Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino blended beverages first! 😛

Yoyo Cafe
Whew, it has already been a week since my last food blog. This is mainly caused by my preparations even before my leave of absence which started Friday – I went to Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, Malaysia.
Yes, I just got back to the Philippines and is still fresh from the airport.
Ice Cream 'Potong'
Before I proceed with the day, I would just like to let you know that I’m still alive and eating. 🙂 And due to my recent trip to Kota Kinabalu, expect a number of Malaysian cuisine features for the upcoming months of November and December.
It would be as varied as the Malaysian spices. From the traditional Nasi Lemak (top right photo) to the local Potong Ice Cream.
You’ll also be seeing the Kota Kinabalu versions of common place commercial food establishments like McDo and KFC; and from their local favorite Chicken Curry to Itik Instant noodles (top left photos).
Gulp.
