I am a very happy wife right now – Paul made an outstanding dinner tonight and it took him no time at all! A very simple chirozo and eggplant pasta, with the addition of seared scallops to my meal. For someone who does not eat scallops, he is quite the expert at cooking them! Mmm, … Continue reading

Fine dining without leaving home
With a husband who cooks amazing meals, some days I feel like the luckiest girl in the world! Tonight’s pleasant surprise was Paul’s version of beef and reef for me – just beef for Paul, as he can’t eat shellfish (very unlucky!).

Tanjung Aru – take two
Following on from my last post about Tanjung Aru beach, I am pleased to report that our experience there last night was delightful.

We set off on foot last night to find Twin-Sky Seafood restaurant, or more specifically, Suangtain Seafood at Kampung Air. Having followed some reviews from both trip advisor and our travel guide book on this trip, I was not feeling confident. I am pleased to report that this restaurant did live up to the reviews … Continue reading
There is something fishy about this place….
There are fish everywhere! At Alu Alu, I found myself in seafood heaven – all manner of seafood in aquarium tanks as you enter and you have the treat of watching a vast array of fish swimming around beneath the restaurant as you dine. The sightings were constant and included Trevally, Tiger Groper, jellyfish and … Continue reading
