Just across Gaya Street from Sabah Tourism Board is a local eatery called Kopi Ping Cafe (咖啡冰). This air-conditioned place is quite popular among youngsters. The menu is entirely pork-free.
Kopi Ping Cafe serves local favorites that one may find in hawker centers. Its signature dishes are KP Nasi Lemak (招牌椰浆饭), Black Pepper Beef Ho Fun (黑胡椒炒牛河), Creamy Butter Chicken Rice (奶油鸡饭) and Fish Sauce Mee Hoon (雨露米粉).
For drinks, Kopi Ping (咖啡冰, RM3.90) is the right choice if you enjoy bold coffee flavor. Chilled and served with ice, the drink is quite satisfying.
Meanwhile, Bandung Special (玫瑰糖浆三色奶茶冰, RM4.90) consists of milk tea, rose syrup and gula melaka (palm sugar). Unfortunately, the drink is way too sweet for my liking.
