In Kota Kinabalu. At the 50th Conference of the Asia-Pacific Academic Consortium on Public Health, here to participate in a pre-event consultation to discuss the development of a surveillance platform for International Health Regulations.
The restaurant was enormous, spanning several blocks.
Welcome Seafood Restaurant is a Malaysian restaurant. Specializes in live seafood, sold by weight, made to order in a variety of Malaysian/Chinese styles.
Mix of tourists and locals.I always feel like I’m getting seated in a corner.While food in Malaysia is generally quite cheap, prices here for certain items were clearly driven by tourist demand (e.g., medium lobster at MYR 260 = USD 62 per kg).Perhaps the widest selection of seafood that I’ve ever seen.The most lobsters that I’ve ever seen in one place.
The food was okay.
Deep-Fried Soft Shell Crab (2.5)Baby Lettuce with Garlic (3.0)Mixed Seafood Fried Rice (3.0)Chili Lobster (2.5): should’ve splurged on a bigger lobster, this smallish one turned out to be more like a big shrimp.
