[Food] Roadtrip to Keningau: Keningau Food.

It has been a struggle trying to blog.  One reason being exhausted on a daily basis, another would be that I needed fast internet connection and blogging from home is not an option due to this issue and doing it from work, well, I don't really have all the time in the world thrown on my lap.  

On another note, am finally catching up on writing (being motivated and all), so hopefully all those pending posts will come out this year (given that, am still motivated).

So last Christmas (okay a day before Christmas, 24th Dec to be exact), me and my group decided to go on a food roadtrip to Keningau.  This was our first trip together as a group and coz we clicked (we spent a huge amount of time together food tasting for a year or so already).  We didn't really have a  clear plan but we compiled a list of some worthy places to visit based on my personal trip (to Keningau), Keningau people's recommendations and Google Map.

First trip with my cabinzero Adv Dry 11L (thank you cabinzero for Cyber Monday).  You could follow cabinzero via Instagram for latest update and sales, who knows you could win one too!  Or if you can't wait that long, use my code for 10% off, here.

Left at 7:30am and got to Papar for breakfast in an hour.  Carpool! And we had a system to how we were gonna split the bill.
