T4 is a Taiwan bubble tea franchised which has open it's door in Bintulu since 2012 has received good reception from the public. Dubbed as the Tea Master, I must admit their tea always has that special refreshing taste that doesn't feel like you are drinking a cup of over sugary water. The best part is that you are allowed to choose how much sugar or even ice you want in your drink.

Personally I love the feel of the whole shop, a relaxing place where you can hangout with friends or just spend a little quiet evening finishing your book with a cup of milk tea. Although some times it could get pretty crowded.

Shabukun Bintulu

Shabukun is a Japanese restaurant located at ParkCity (same row with SunFlower) that serves a variety of Japanese food although I would not say it is the best due to most of the item on the menu are only available when you are in luck but they are the only Japanese shabu shabu restaurant in Bintulu.

I like the place mainly because of quiet and comfy setting with the whole wooden vibe going around and you get a table which is partly covered so you get a bit of peace and privacy plus some tables even have a DVD player with a selection of movies for you to keep the children on their seats.

Their main business is as you guess from their name, shabu-shabu. Their menu consists of items which you would normally see in any shabu restaurant and to be honest there is nothing to shout about. The night we arrived there was a set meal promotion for RM38 per head only for the month of July. The set meal consists of a bowl of shabu material, fried rice,baby octopus,fried pork,skewered chicken meat,skewered prawn,salad, fried vegetable and a pot of tea. On top of this they allowed you to top up three times for any of the dish. Pictures taken below are for two person portion.

Overall I would say it was alright however I find the material for shabu boring as it consists of chicken frank,mushroom,vegetable and squid which I could have found any of these things at a better place but if you want to have a nice quiet evening out with the missus I would say this is a good place but maybe you might want to wait for this promotion to end and order off the menu.

Reggae Grill Bintulu

Reggae Grill located at Park City is one those restaurant with nice dark ambient where you can just simply hit back and watch a game with a bottle of cold beer or simply enjoy your meal. The menu served both local and western dishes from your fried noodle to steaks and I must say they have a good variety with prices I consider reasonably cheap which why the place is always buzzing with crowd later into the night.

I ordered the steak roll while my partner a chicken chop. The service was good as the waiter waited at our table to make our order but it took almost twenty minutes for the food to come out which in my book is a long wait considering when we arrived there weren't much people.

The steak roll came rolled with sauce and mix vegetable in between served with mashed potato. The meat looks absolutely gorgeous and the taste  didn't disappoint. Full flavour and was pretty soft but my only complain was the portion was too big if I am being picky.

The chicken chop came with mushroom sauce and mashed potato. According to my partner it tasted alright since I don't expect anything earth shattering about chicken chop as long as they don't burnt it.

Overall I enjoyed the whole experience and there is also a room with air condition for those who doesn't want to sit outside which mostly are smokers but I find it's not always opened.
