Sin Kee Bah Kut Teh (新記肉骨茶) - Sabah

The soup base of this bah kut teh is herbal, not the peppery type.  You can choose to have only pork ribs or pork ribs with a variety of items - meat balls, pork belly, pork organs, beancurb ..etc.
Its quite popular among the locals even though the price is considered steep in sabah.

The must try is the Pork Liver/Kidney in Yellow Wine (黄酒). It's a kind of rice wine which most Sabahans (older generation) know how to make in their homes. The yellow wine goes well with the liver/kidney, the whole dish is fragrant and soothing.

Kim Hing Lee Coffee Shop

Simple coffee shop settings. All customers are here for the Sang Nyuk Mian (生肉麵)

soup version (RM5.50)

Dry version (RM5.50)

The soup here is not the thick/creamy type, but clear with a light fragrance, its simply great! The meat is thinly sliced and is very tender. You can choose to order meat slice only or meat slice with meat balls and liver/intestines/kidneys.
The dry version of sang nyuk mian is with the nice black sauce which is very common in Malaysia. I usually prefer my noodles to be dry, however, in order not to let the black sauce overshadow the soup, I will usually go for the soup version. Well, you will still have a decent bowl of soup for the dry version.
