Dining at Fresco Restaurant & Wine Bar

DSC00729

I guess it is just much better to post about where I dine with Griselda now days. We seem to be going to non common place most of the time now days for fun. Anyway went to this restaurant called Fresco, the atmosphere was nice, quiet and best of all they serve us fast (Most important thing for every restaurant for me of cause).

You get to choose few kind of dish pricing from RM10+ to RM70+, which means you be spending an average of rm50-70 when you dine there depending on your food and drinks.

There are two section to dine here, you get a non smoking area and smoking area. Pretty much common now days to have for most place but well I choose to have my dinner outside for the nice cold breeze wind. It just finish raining so why waste your time inside looking at the wall when you can view it all from outside? Anyway that is just my opinion others might have difference point of view.

It did not take long for our order to arrive (less then 20 minutes or less then 15 minute would be more accurate), no wonder the waitress asked us if we wanted some salad first before having our main food. But I am not a salad person and Griselda could not finish it alone so we didn’t ask for it.

Looking around Fresco with a solo performance from Abing

 

Usually there is a life band performing on Wednesday and Saturday but for this week they had some problem with the usual performer but the replacement was not bad. More like it was like he just fit in the surrounding there and the concept of this restaurant. So it is a good place to hang out with your partner if you got nothing else to talk about anymore and with a performer around it could be turned into a conversation about how good they are or maybe why are they singing there? lol

Anyway the guy singing name is Abing, he is local and also a friend to Griselda auntie. Not sure if that is how his name is spelled but well it sounds like that haha

The restaurant is open for lunch now days, they are promoting their 10” pizza for lunch with a price of RM15 (Not including 6% government tax and service tax) but you get a free soft drink at your choice too!!. If you wish to have any other inquiry or wish to make a special reservation you can contact them at :

Lot 6, Tanjung Lipat, Jalan
Gaya (Jesselton Point) 88000,
Kota Kinabalu Sabah, Malaysia
Tel: 088 266 882

Look for Danny as he is friendly and yes I got to know about the promotion from him. Also some tips for those who are driving there, go directly to the back of the area as I shown on the map above and park there. Don’t waste your time waiting for a space in front because there might be another 3 or 4 cars doing so.

Some other blog post about the place:

This is a sponsored post I think

Finally the party was over but what is this?

#Celcomstompingsabah

Well it has been an exciting week for me, got a call from nuffnang informing me about Stompin’ Sabah. Then was given 10 tickets to invite my friends and family, met my ex school mate from All Saints junior actually age does not matter anymore so what is all this Junior and Senior thing about?.

Anyway pretty much the whole weekend was like a dream actually. Now that it is over I am getting like the blue feeling you usually get after accomplishing something and don’t know what to do next?  Getting this kind of feeling now but well got to face reality as I am still alive and got to make a living for myself so meaning I got to work tomorrow which is Monday,

I still got to post some of the videos I recorded, it may not be the best… well nobody sponsored me a camera to begin with. Still saving for a Nikon D90 even if I can afford it I still need to wait till I have some extra more cash in case for emergency :|

Here are the videos:

Jin from Hitz.Fm introducing A Sky Collapse Triangle

 

A Sky Collapse Triangle Performing, sorry it is not a complete video as the other camera was low on batt :(

 

The girls who was there were dancing while wicked aura batucada was performing and yes I recorded it.

I still got few more videos to upload but due to the size I got to split 2 or 3 of the video. As it might take days to upload those over 600mb files lol… But fear not I will upload them and yes will posted on this blog once I do it.. I think after a few days maybe.. or weeks… nvm.. just check this blog.

Anyway it has been a great weekend for me and got to say thanks to Nuffnang and X Pax for sponsoring the tickets. It would have been another normal weekend for me if not for them, really appreciated the tickets given to me for Stompin’ Sabah 2010. Thanks a lot guys and hope to get more opportunity like this in the future :)

 

This is a sponsored post I think

Finally I was able to go and well the weather did not help much as it was raining.. so it was going to be a wet concert!!! never mind that as I was going to the entrance and wanted to take out my ticket… it was missing… So like OKK I forgot to take it from the car and walked all the way back to my car.

Well it was pretty much a blast even when it was raining!!! not really heavy but you still get wet and yes… lots of wet girls!!! haha well not like I was looking at them or anything… ok must admit it I am a man too so our eyes just can’t stop looking!..
