The Banana Cafe is just another reason to stay at the Sepilok Jungle Resort. The food is yummy, and the portions are generous. They also offer a few western dishes (eg fried eggs for breakfast, hot dogs for lunch) for those who are craving them.
Favorite Dish: Loved the chicken curry!

Within the main reception building is a small shop that sells a load of orang-utans souvenirs such as T-shirts, mugs, badges, fridge magnets, soft toys, photos, posters...you name it. I did find a shop selling similar stuff at cheaper prices in Sandakan near the old town mosque on Lebuh Empat.

As per the usual system in Malaysia, foreigners pay more for entry; a lot more. Apparently you are all very rich people, even the student backpackers.
Unique Suggestions: There's nothing you can do about it, so grin and bear it.

Luggage and bags: A small bag with your camera and perhaps a spare shirt (it can get quite humid).
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: I'd recommend shoes; otherwise mosquitoes might get your toes!! Loose, comfortable clothing will do.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Keep the mosquito repellants in the car/bus. I'd bring deodorant or perfume (in the car too please) for later as you could end up sweating a lot.
Photo Equipment: The orang-utans rarely stay still so a basic camera might not be able to capture good shots. I also used a video camera-it's well worth it.
