Sarawak Food (Kuching) Jun2011 Trip Part 1

Finally! i went to the island of borneo! Proud to say after 23 years i went to east Malaysia for the first time. It was an exciting journey as i do not know anyone there and guided by my research & GPS. Flight was at 12pm, so i headed to KL Sentral to pick up on a High Speed Train to LCCT. Had my quick breakfast @Subway and im off! The journey somehow got delayed slightly, leaving me very little time to hang around LCCT. at 12.10 im off! Flight was terrible as we experienced some turbulence on its way.

At about 2.00pm i reached the KCH airport. And this blog post is all about KUCHING & Its FOOD!

Lunch Spot (Chinese BBQ Specialist)
What i had here? There you go:
Chicken Rice + Pork + Duck RM5

Original KOLO mee from Sarawak RM3.50

Dumpling Soup RM3
I taste really really good! and it was cheap too! The portion was generous & the dumpling was really good!
I really loved the food here! and came here twice for lunch!
Jawa Mee @RM5 (AYAM PENYET RK RESTAURANT)
 This is a version of JAWA Mee from sarawak, They even dip in some satay on the dish. Nothing big to shout, i guess the gravy is too thick & rich. Not into my liking.
Ayam Penyat @RM7 (AYAM PENYET RK RESTAURANT)
Well, i have never eaten ayam penyet before, and always wondering how does it taste like....i tell u , this ayam penyet was bad! big time failure dish! It was a chicken leg fried & smashed on to a hot pan(making the burn marks) Nothing to shout about the taste, atleast it was edible. saw the chunk of cabbage & some leaves? how on earth so you eat the rock hard cabbage? Some chili souce & lousy soup + fried snack(dont know what's it name) totally not worth the price paid.


Next is KUEH CHAP, This dish is a famous one here, they usually consume it in the morning for breakfast. Searching for local breakfast i found this stall here:
Famous Kueh Chap stall @Jalan Abell

Kueh Chap (RM4/each)
 It is basically, some kueh teow, Hard boiled eggs, pork meat & spare-parts with "Bak kut teh" like soup. Very delicious! i loved this meal, but in semenanjung its almost impossible to find.

The spareparts & ingredient used. 
Stay tuned for SARAWAK FOOD Part 2!! Coming Soon! with more exciting reviews!
