Kuching 2011

I have not been to Kuching since forever. Each time we celebrate Chinese New Year, its either in my hometown, Miri or in Sarikei.. It was hardly in Kuching. So it have been ages since I last visited. First of all, I would like to thank my beloved aunties and uncles for taking care of me throughout my visit. You guys were so awesome! Sorry if I have created more trouble for you guys!

When I first arrived Kuching, aunty Siew Ying asked me what I wanted to eat for supper. I said..

The next morning, aunty brought me to try Kampua as well as Mee Kolok. I never knew the differences between the two until that day.. Haha. I thought there were both the same thing.

If I'm not mistaken, Kampua's noodle is very curly while Mee Kolok's is straight.. Haha..

Some of the places that I've been to to shop are: Padini, The Hills, Nam Leong, Parkson, Factory Outlet and others.

Alex's Place

Alex's place is one of my super duper old squash buddy's restaurant. I think we know each other for almost 6-7 years? Haha, knew him when I just started squash. Yeah, that's a long time. Anyways, the restaurant is located on Green Road, just opposite the Shell station. It has a very huge "JAZZ" word on the building.

The Junk

The Junk is a very famous western restaurant that is located in Kuching. It is open from 6.00 pm till 12.00 am everyday except for Tuesday! Me and my aunty went over on Tuesday night but sadly it was closed. We were so excited about going to that restaurant.

The basin for washing hands is so so so special. You would have to pull a round looking thing... okay, I should shut up.. I suck at explaining.. Haha.. All you need to know is that: It is special. Haha.

IMG_7220
They also provide small hand towels!

IMG_7219
Not forgetting to camwhore. Haha.

Half a dozen of garlic bread. It was really good! It was so huge that we were all full after having two pieces each. LOL. I also loved the presentation! Haha

IMG_7235
Took another picture because I don't know how to take the dish from a nice angle. Haha.

IMG_7238

IMG_7240
Fish and Chips. Not too bad.. The only thing that I didn't like was the grated cheese on the fish. haha! You know me... I hate cheese.

IMG_7239
LOOK HOW BIG THEIR SERVING IS? It is "suppose" to be for one person. I saw a couple of people eating just one plate on their own and I was thinking, if that was me, I would faint. Haha.

IMG_7243
Grilled Chicken Wings. It is very special cause it didnt have any bones. They removed it before cooking it, making it easier to eat!

IMG_7242
Same proportion. Imagine four of us trying to stuff everything in. TT we were so full after that!
