Land Below The Wind
I was absent again! Yes again and again! Excuses; work, wedding preparations and most of all, I chose to sleep whenever I had time. I have too many outdated posts and I don’t know where to start off with.
Anyway, few months back, my cousin from Johor came to visit. I lived in Sandakan for so many years but have yet to visit some of the main attractions. One of them is the Agnes Keith House. Not much shots, as we were only allowed to snap on the outer of the place. There were more interesting stuffs inside like antique typewriter, old phones, old-styled appliances and a big room with a huge mirror that makes the place looks eerie. Just RM2 and I think is worth a visit.
After the visit, I even bought the book written by the owner of the house. It’s a good book with the writer’s experiences of Borneo.

The Tofu Shop
Continue with updates on April Hong Kong trip. I decided not to update on my cousin’s club, A.V.E.N.U.E. because I couldn’t find the pictures >.<
Anyway, my cousin and I went to this tofu shop in Sham Shui Po. They served very good fried tofu and tofu fa. It’s not hard to find the shop. From Sham Shui Po MTR, go to exit B2 then just walk straight towards 7-Eleven and the shop is about 2-3 shops after 7-Eleven. If not mistaken, the street name is Pei Ho Street.
That’s the name of the shop, Gung Wo.
This is where they process their tofu. As you can see, they still practice the old way.
The uncle busy frying tofu. There are 2 types of tofu. One is stuffed with fish like our Yong Tofu and the other none. Yum Yum! Delicious.
Here you go!
Of course we ordered their Tofu Fa as well. So smooth. Also they use yellow sugar unlike those we have in Malaysia which uses liquid ones.
This is the yellow sugar I mentioned.
They also sell cube tofu.
