Earlier on the night before the trip, mum told me that she's going on a road trip with her friends up to Tuaran, a relatively small town, 34KM or about an hour ride from KK. Initial thought of mine says I'm going for the food because there's a noodle dish called "Tuaran Mee" that I really like to have, of course I wish to have one on the origin of place itself, so I say yes!, BUT gotta wake up at 5am. Well at least mum's driving, and I got some shut eye along the road, to north we go 🚗.
Boy oh boy, can't remember when was the last time that you can drive from point A to B in KK without traffic jam due to construction and increased car on the road due development, such a smooth ride, smoother than my future.

We stop by in another area called Tamparuli for the noodle instead of Tuaran. Ever see a black coloured tofu? Apparently it is soaked with Pork's blood in the making process to make it appear in black. The texture is smooth, I can sliced it clean with a chopstick without breaking it into pieces. Taste unique, like grounded smell, will a touch of blood smell, not that pungent.
Finally in Tuaran, I won't really say it's a small town, but not too large either, probably the size of 4 football field. They called it a Tamu, which I have no idea the origin of the name, is where people get to sell their veggie, meat, clothing, and many other items you wish to sell, every once a week. We walked our way towards the market area, and totally out of my expectation. I scouted the area at the end of the day, the area which they layout for the market is about one plus half the size of football field, literally a quarter of the town is the Tamu area!!!
Well, that's it for the post, I know it's a little long, so one last picture 😛
