Last month my friends & I were ate at seafood restaurant located at Sim-sim jambatan 8 Sandakan sabah, The restaurant over the water is quite popular among the local people and the tourist. Make sure you going at night ONLY to avoid no appetite during the grimy environment while you eat...hehehehehe

The restaurant serves the fresh seafood and a good quality from a big aquarium. The chef will help you to cooking all the menu you ordered like Mud crab, lala, grouper "ikan kerapu", sea bass "ikan siakap",shrimp, shellfish, cumi-cumi "octopus" and many more.
