Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Have you personally tried the food?
A. Yes. I have to teste the food before recommend it to readers.

Q. Why some of the pictures looks blur and some even without flash?
A. Most of my pictures are taken with only a 3 Mega Pixel compact camera or a N73 Nokia camera phone. I try to avoid using flash in order to go undercover. Sometimes if the restaurant owner suspected that you are doing review, they might provide you special service to put more efforts to prepare your order. This will result in different taste or service that people usually get from that particular restaurant.

Q. Do you accept advertisement?
A. Yes. Anyone interested can email me at foodsteps.sabah@gmail.com. However, it will only appear at the advertisement column. It won't appear in the review section unless I have tested the food and confirmed good.

Q. Do the restaurant aware that you are reviewing their food?
A. No. I always go undercover to before tasting. This is to ensure I tasted the taste that usually their customers are normally enjoying. However, some good chef deserves a praise; and I will only do it after I paid my bill and about to leave the restaurant.

Q. Do you get to eat for free?
A. No. I always pay my bill. Anyway, I always go undercover.....Where got free lunch in this world? Unless, its on a special invitation (some restaurants do invite food bloggers for food tasting).

Q. How can readers get more information on certain places to eat?
A. Readers can always email me at foodsteps.sabah@gmail.com for more information.

Q. Why you invested so much time in writing this blog?
A. Food is my passion, both cooking and eating. I would like to share it with more people and also to praise those chefs that have put in all they can to provide good food for their customers. Of course I also hope to get some advertisements advertised in my blog.

Q. How can readers help you?
A. Readers can help me by visiting those restaurants I featured in my blog, give their valuable comments and feedback; and also visit my sponsors' site.

Q. You said you like cooking. Why there are no recipe shared in your blog?
A. That will be in my second phase plan. Stay tuned! :)

Kedai Kopi Houng Kee



Kedai Kopi Houng Kee is situated at Damai Plaza, near the popular bread shop "Foo Yuen". They are well known for their mixed fish noodle. Just in case, mixed fish noodle is either noodle soup or dry style served with your choice of seafood like fish slice, fish ball, fish cake, fish maw, fish roe, fish stomach, fish lips and many more... You may also mixed it with other seafood like clam and prawn.

However, I prefer their Tom Yam Noodle more. Although it taste and style is totally different from the original Thai's Tom Yam, I still like the taste. Its very thick and very unique. Hmmm... I will prefer to name it Seafood Laksa Lemak Noodle...hehehe



You can choose to order either rice noodle, egg noodle or rice stick. My choice.....rice noodle. You can mixed it with your choice of fresh seafood...... Enjoy mixing.....

Kedai Restauran Kuo Man




Situated near Sunny Garden, 1.5 Mile of Jalan Tuaran, Kedai Restauran Kuo man serves the most popular homemade fish ball and homemade egg noodle. When someone mentioned homemade fish ball, they are the pioneer that no one are unaware of. Astro AEC's Jason also visited this restaurant for his food series which will be aired around October 2009.



The most popular on the menu will be the homemade fish ball "yu wat". We can safely says that most of the tables will order this item. Usually, they will eat it their popular home made egg noodle.



Usually people will order only noodle "kosong" and separately another dish. For me, I prefer to order noodle with something inside especially fresh prawn and fresh fish fillet; and then order separately a bowl of homemade fish ball.



Also recommended in their menu is the beef slice and beef tendon in herbal soup. Give it a try or else you have never tried a real "yu wat".
