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!
