Dining in Kota Kinabalu – From Fine Dining to Nibbling on the Pavement in Style

As one of the leading commercial and economic hubs of East Malaysia, it is not surprising that Kota Kinabalu is a popular tourist destination. Its scenic beauty and well planned settings make it an eye catching sight from the waves of the South China Sea. Being the homeland for a number of ethnicities, an assortment of victuals can be found easily. From gourmet food to corner shop flavours and hawker’s stalls, Kota Kinabalu is blessed with it all.

 

For those who just love delectable Indian cuisine, the Anjappar Chettinad Restaurant is the perfect place.
