Food @t Kuching

As we know, Kuching is a historical place that might visit by foreigner friends. Here, we can found a lot of local food from different races like Malay, Chinese, Iban, Kedayan, Bidayuh.

Laksa  is the main food that need to try here. It is almost the breakfast for all people here.

CHONG CHOON CAFE

Poh Lam Laksa serves a delightful bowl of Sarawak laksa for a wholesome breakfast (RM5 for medium, RM6 for large). The bihun is soft and well-blanched in piping hot water. Then, boiled prawns, shredded chicken, crispy sprouts, and finally the hot prawn-based broth are added into the bowl. Fresh coriander leaves on the top give a pungent aroma to the laksa. 

The soup is spicy, sour and sweet flavour with different level from different hawker.

The shop is located at Jalan Abell, Kuching opposite the Pentanak Market. You may find it on your right if you walk straight from Tun Jugah Plaza and Grand Magherita hotel.                                             

It also had a new branch near the Kuching Airport, 

Jalan Lapangan Terbang, besides Green Height Mall.

KOPI O' CORNER

They are famous for their ayam penyet bakar. It located at Jalan Satok, just below the highway of Satok bridge opposite the Kuching Court.

Another signature of Kopi O Corner is their beef prata roll (RM7). Chunks of beef are rolled in fluffy prata bread, topped with chilli sauce, mayonnaise, and black pepper sauce spread out in a creative zig-zag manner.

                                                                                                    Mee jawa biasa (RM3.80) is a hearty plate of yellow egg noodles, loaded with chunks of chicken as well as chicken satay topped with peanut sauce, and boiled egg, flooded with spicy curry gravy. Considering it’s the ‘biasa’ (ordinary) version, it’s surprising to see there’s so much to eat, at a ridiculously low price.

Bakso merapi special (RM6.90) is a fiery beef-flavoured soup consisting of five huge bakso (beef balls) and three types of noodles - kway teow, maggi, and beehoon. The idea of combining these three noodles never crossed my mind but their different textures somehow blended well together. 

The ping pong-sized bakso are springy and well-seasoned. For a lip-smacking meal, slurp up the spicy broth straight from the bowl to set your lips on fire.
