Restoran Sri Keningau

For those that are from Kota Kinabalu, you might be familiar with this particular restaurant as they’d opened a branch in Tawau quite a number of years ago. And as with its KK (and beyond?) counterparts, the restaurant has been well received by Tawaurians. Tons of lunch goers came in droves almost everyday to sample their sizeable variety of lauk pauk for their Nasi Campur (which was their main attraction in my opinion).

Located right in front the Perdana Sports & Recreational Club within the Fajar Complex area, some of the things that we have tried during our multiple visits were their seafood offerings as well as vegetables, chickens, beefs (to which they cook using various Malay and Thai recipes) and not forgetting their ulam-ulaman. The tastes so far were pretty spot on and yummy although in more than one occasion, can be either a little over or undercooked. But their customers (including us) still came back for more so they must be doing something right, right? Service was swift and they do serve other cook-to-order local dishes should you’re not interested in their selection of pre-cooked food.
