If you’ve frequented the Jalan Air Panas
area especially the round-a-bout right next to the Tawau Police Headquarters,
then you probably noticed a new, single shoplot right in front of its main
gate called Prima Jaya Commercial area. And one guess which café occupied the first shop within said area? Yup,
none other than this Grand Café. But despite the name, the café itself are more
laid-back and sedated and not as ‘grand’ as you might think.
I have been to this particular café twice because
you can't just stay away from a place that provides good food right? Me and my
partner were roaming around the area the first time around because we were
trying to find an eatery that stayed open during a public holiday. Back then we
didn’t know what to expect so we just ordered their Kuey Teow Goreng (with no
after-wok burnt taste which was nice) and Nasi Goreng Ayam Penyet (the chicken
was a bit overcooked and the sambal was on the spicy side according to my
partner). We also tried out their Oreo Cheese Cake and I was a bit surprised to
find that it was moist and the cheese wasn’t overpowering. It was because I was
determined to try out their Chocolate Cake (which became unavailable during our
premier visit) that we came back a couple of weeks after that but sadly my
quest has been thwart yet again. So instead I consoled myself with yet another
cheese cake (this time it’s their Lemon Cheese Cake). I enjoyed the cake very
much, what with its good blend of not-too-strong cheesy taste with a tinge of
lemony flavour. We also ordered some Tuna Egg Mayo Sandwiches (unexceptional in
taste but still fulfilling), Nasi Goreng Sambal (simple yet tasty) and a Sweet and Sour Chicken Rice for my ever
hungry companion (he said that it was really tangy and all around palatable).
