Why it matters
Why Fatt Kee Seafood, Suria Sabah is worth your time
A bowl of noodle soup is a calmer meal than a multi-dish seafood dinner, which suits older travellers and anyone with a smaller appetite. The central location removes the need for a taxi.
It shows how Kota Kinabalu mixes Chinese noodle traditions with Thai-style tom yam flavours, using local fish. Its place inside a major mall also means toilets, seating and lifts are close, which counts for a lot when you are travelling with parents or grandparents.

How to experience it
Take the mall lift to the third floor. The speciality is seafood noodles served in a tomato or tom yam soup, and one guide names Tom Yam Fish Noodles as the signature. Ask whether stock and sauces contain pork if that matters, though the restaurant is listed as pork-free.
The soup is the main thing, so order one bowl each and share a vegetable side if available. Spice levels in tom yam can be strong, so ask staff to tone it down for older diners or children.
The restaurant has several branches in the city, including Imago and Hilltop, so check the one you are going to. Use the rest of the day for the waterfront, which is a short walk outside the mall.
Plan with confidence

- Choose the correct branch
