On our way back from KK, my partner decided that he needs a
break from all those long distance driving and made a pit stop at Lahad Datu
(LD). Mind you, it has been years since I last set foot in LD so I was surprise
to see the overall development of the small district. What was more surprising
(and hilarious to us) was that the first thing that we saw coming into the town
area was the Fook Yuen (FY) food chain.
I’ve heard rumours that the owner of the aforementioned eatery does not give
out the rights to open their branch to just anyone so I’m assuming that this
one might at least be opened by a family member. And since we were curious as
to whether or not the place looks any different from the ones in KK, we decided
to drop by this branch which was located on the ground floor of Darvel Bay
Plaza
Needless to say, we could verify
that it is an authentic FY branch and we were both very impressed with the
variety of food available, particularly the prawns that my partner had.
Taste-wise, everything is up to the usual FY standards (which was both good and
satisfying). The only thing that I would like them to take note on was that
they did not seem to be using the number-calling system (even though it was
available) so we weren’t informed that our drinks were ready. It seems that the
staff was ‘busy’ teasing and gossiping with each other to update the patrons of
their orders, which is a habit that shouldn’t be taken lightly.
**Sorry for the angle as this is best that I can do while simultaneously receiving dagger looks from other patrons 😅
