'Sarawak laksa'

One can find Sarawak laksa stalls anywhr in Kuching..but there are only few places whr u can find really nice ones in Kuching. Nice as in fresh prawns, nice gravy, not too oily..Below are my personal favourites..

  • Chong choon cafe @ jln padungan near longhouse hotel
  • Foody goody cafe @ tabuan laru near Kuching Specialist Hospital
  • Ling loong cafe @ king centre


' Sarawak 'pek kueh' - white rice cake'

The place dat serve d best pek kueh in Kuching should be Sin Poh Poh cafe @ near grand continental hotel. This is a foochow delicacy and its simply addictive!

No more pics to show..so gonna introduce other foods nxt time..keke..

Dr. Sara back from d dead  

the word according to Sharon P

whoa!! so hapi with dis latest news!! Prison Break fans alert! Dr. Sara Tancredi is returning to the series probably in Season 4 and she's actuali not dead, yet. Hurray!! Michael Scofield must hav been extremely hapi..and yea dis totally makes d series much more exciting to watch..xoxo

TV GUIDE: So... I take it that wasn't Sara's head in that box....

Matt Olmstead: Yeah, that wasn't.

TVG: But initially it was supposed to be her head. What changed?

Olmstead: What changed was.... once we realized that the emotional hook of Season 3 was going to be the death of Sara, when we didn't get the actress to do it, as soon as we wrote it and shot it, we realized that there was actually a way she could still be alive. Lincoln glanced at the head in the box for a split second. That could've been anyone. He wasn't about to pull it up from the hair and inspect it closely. And then we were fairly careful thereafter of references we made to that and who took credit for it and what was seen or heard, and we left it fairly [vague]. But initially when we realized that we never actually saw the character get killed, we just had that knowledge in our back pocket and moved forward with the narrative as we intended. Which was: she's out of the picture, Michael's [feeling guilty] and Lincoln is freaking out because if they did that to her, they could do that to his son. It really gave us a real push for the season.

bak kut teh for lunch  

the word according to Sharon P

I desperately need a new digicam after my former Canon digital ixus became faulty becoz of my stoooopidness! All my fault..y m i so careless? haihz..now waiting for the PIKOM PC fair dis April 4th to hook up any good bargains there..but dunno which model shud i ask mom 2 buy..hmm another Canon or go for the sleek and gorgeous Sony? :/

Anywayz, i wanted to enrol for a dance lesson since im quite free on weekends and i went to Earth Dance but they have closed all lessons for adults coz the instructor said dat she jz got married and she said she has to make family planning..jz d right timing..*SiGhz* my next target is Right steps @ 2.5 mile near OTS..i thought i was going to enrol thr and so hav my lunch @ Grandma's hand made noodle, jz beside it..



It claimed to be the Klang Teluk Kulai version of bak kut teh and thr were lots of variety to choose from, like my dad's fav big bone 'tua kut', pork leg, and so forth similar to Klang's style..the soup tasted quite nice, quite pekat and not too dillute but not enuf herbs taste and the soy sauce is super salty..but i like it! xD overall, it's my fav bak kut teh place in Kuching as of now..

lunch @ Rom Orchid Gdn  

the word according to Sharon P

After my site visit last week, my colleague brought me to an interesting place rather isolated and hidden inside a Malay kampung for lunch..it is sumwhr near d DBKU state library..the place has got many many lovely flowers esp orchids hanging around d eatery place..the place also provides homestay but i wonder who would stay at such an isolated place, wif not much to do around..the food here is quite nice and the owner a Malay woman from Penang by d name Kak Rom is vr frenly and she kept askin us abt our food and even recommended us few dishes. D nasi kerabu goreng is so yummylicious! it has d herbs taste which isnt too strong..but d nasi lemuni is jz so-so..not recommmended coz d anchovies are so 'chao yeu kao' and d drinks are also nice except dat there r many ants swimming inside. my colleague jz drank everyth down his throat and i was like o.O walao! some of d visitors even minta-minta her orchids and Kak Rom gave them for free. orchid lovers quickly go n grab one of her orchids~ :P
