My Kuching, Sarawak Trip
Rock Road Seafood Restaurant in Kuching, Sarawak
Jan 9th
The first seafood restaurant I went during my trip in Kuching was Rock Road Seafood Restaurant. It is one of the recommended restaurants for seafood in our travel guide book. Since my buddy Prim3 and also my tour guide also said the food there is not bad, we decided to try it.
The restaurant has a website and honestly I think the design is terrible. They definitely need to redesign it, and I tell you, the waiter in the photo on the main page was the one who attended to us that night lol, I still can remember him.
Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre Trip, Orang Utans!
Dec 8th
On the first day of my trip to Kuching, we went to Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre to see orang utans. Semenggoh is about 40km south of Kuching and can be reached using the Green public bus owned by Sarawak Transport Company. We knew this from the free tourist guide we got from Matta Fair hehe.
That’s me waiting at the bus stop for that green bus to arrive. Click here to continue reading >
Sio Bee, The Kuching Siu Mai!
Nov 13th
In [tag]Kuching[/tag] Sio Bee is a popular street dish that can be found easily. The word [tag]Sio Bee[/tag] is in Hokkien. It is also fondly known as Siu Mai in Cantonese to us from the Peninsular. This is one of the must-tries in Kuching.
Belacan beehoon and ABC in Sarawak
Oct 27th
Belacan beehoon is a hawker food only available in [tag]Sarawak[/tag] if I am not mistaken. I knew Sarawak had kolo mee, Sarawak laksa, kampua but certainly not belacan beehoon. When I first heard the name, I thought it would be something like belacan fried beehoon. Allen, my host during my Kuching trip told me that this is the most popular place for belacan beehoon. When Kuching folks think [tag]belacan beehoon[/tag], they think Ah Kheng in Jubilee Ground. Very true.. people were thronging this place even at 3PM well after lunch hour. Well as you can see, it’s very simple.. pour the belacan gravy over the beehoon and serve with a couple pieces of cuttlefish and chilli sauce. Honestly I didn’t like it.. the belacan smell is too strong and the taste is sweet.
