Janggut @ Hilltop Kota Kinabalu

 So Janggut which means beard in Malay is a restaurant that serves reasonably good Tom Yam in Kota Kinabalu. Apart from their Tom Yam, they are also known for their home made tofu and fried noodles. Pictured above is the Chicken TomYam heavily garnished with Coriander and Bean Sprouts. I like how the soup is mixed with coconut milk to give it a very thick feel. However, this will set you back around Rm7.50 and is quite costly for a typical coffee shop food.

The fried noodles below are also really great. I like the use of chillies and coriander when they fry the noodles as it gives the dish a punch on flavors, it's hard to find dishes that are light but at the same time has so much flavor to it. It's totally worth a visit!

Beef Noodles @ Kah Hiong Hilltop Kota Kinabalu

 This is a restaurant I went to quite some time ago that serves the best Beef Noodle soup! Pictured above is the noodles mixed with a special chinese soy sauce, i think its a mixture of various soy sauce, sesame oil and pepper. It's then garnished with some minced beef and spring onions. Quite nice! I like the mixture of the eggs noodles and the sauce.

This is the Beef soup, its basically beef parts (balls, tripe, meat) etc along with some winter melon cooked in beef broth and garnished with spring onions. It is very nice but I don't like the fact that they add in so much MSG into the dishes! But it is worth a visit! It's damn good!
