#Sarawak Kolo Mee Tumblr posts

[buffetlicious]

It is just the two of us eating so mum is not cooking tonight. I was tasked to bring home dinner so I went back to the Sarawak Kolo Mee stall at Koufu (口福) Food Court. Picked the same Crispy Chicken Kolo Mee (香酥鸡排哥罗面) for mum and myself. Loaded it with plenty of crispy pork lard and also a scoop of chilli paste for my own bowl. The springy noodles are a plus point as is the crispy yet still juicy chicken cutlet.

DEWAN RAKYAT SQUABBLE OVER ‘FOURTH R’

By Anjushree Ratna Kumar of Reuters 

DEWAN RAKYAT: During today’s earlier session of the Dewan Rakyat, the Malaysian government and opposition argued over one of the core facets of the nation's identity, the 3Rs: race, religion, and royalty. Surprisingly, a controversial fourth 'R' emerged: Rice. 

The debating commenced with an acknowledgment of the enduring significance of race, religion, and royalty in shaping Malaysia's political landscape. The 3R are deeply entrenched in the country's history, and have been the focal points of numerous debates and policies over the decades. 

As a staple of Malaysian cuisine, Rice reflects the very core of Malaysia’s cultural identity. In this context, the fourth 'R' represents the culinary diversity of Malaysia. However, there was heavy debate between the opposition and government over the specificity of “Rice”, with even the Yang di-Pertua Dewan Rakyat himself stating: “Why are you talking about rice, when so much of our cuisine is noodles? What if someone says Sarawak’s Kolo Mee is terrible?” 

Moreover, it was also brought up by several YBs on placing rice on the same pedestal of national values such as Race, Religion and Royalty. This question caused yet another uproar today in the Dewan Rakyat, wherein Sarawak was infuriated. After some time, order was restored and the House moved onto their next agenda.

🍥 The 3 Kings of Kuching Malaysia - Sarawak Laksa, Mee Kolo & Teh C Special

We made a little detour on our way back from Sematan. Pantai Telok Melano is basically the northeastern tip of Sarawak (and by extension Borneo), or at least as far as you can go via main roads anyway.

Afterwards we spent yet another 2 hours on the road to head back to Kuching. At least there was this double rainbow that kept us company on the journey.

Was basically force-fed a bunch of local snacks and pastries by relatives for the remainder of our trip, aka the Asian love language.

7am sunrise view of Kuching from our Airbnb condo.

We went out for a hot breakfast of handcut noodles based on one of my cousin's recommendations.

I opted for a basic variation topped with minced pork and dressed in a simple sauce. The sheer pepperiness of the minced pork was such a kick in the face that it absolutely woke me the fuck up from any lingering drowsiness. Talk about a wake-up call.

Then one of my uncles brought us to what is possibly the best bakery on Borneo. Their signature buns are like little soft, fluffy pillows filled with a smooth and not-too-sweet taro paste. I will give my firstborn to be able to have this every morning.

Then we popped by my aunt's place for some freshly fried keropok, topped with homemade achar and freshly ground peanuts.

We woke up at an ungodly hour on the last morning for a piping hot bowl of kolo mee. There's something to be said about the magic of perfectly cooked, springy noodles tossed in fried shallots and char siu oil.

We had it again for lunch before left for the airport. One for the road, y'know?

The flight home.

Ho Chak Restaurant

Occasionally, on Sundays, we go out for a family breakfast, and on this particular Sunday we decided to eat somewhere new rather than our usual breakfast dim sum, so we opted to eat at Ho Chak Restaurant

Location: Menglait area, where all the big shot restaurants like FunShabu-Shi and all others are

Setting: Typical Chinese kopitiam, though it's really kinda small and cramped

Viewing through the menu, I was a little disappointed that the food choices were so limited. This was supposed to be one of KK's (or Sarawak?) famous kopitiam branching out a franchise here in Brunei. Shouldn't it meet a little of our expectations at least?

Fried mixed noodles, which is almost everyone's choice

Kolo mee with char siu

My lor mee

As usual, I order something different than everyone else, and again, I was a little disappointed with the taste. It had a constant sour taste to it and the texture of both noodle and meat wasn't all that flattering. I didn't get food poisoning and neither did my princess (coz we shared a bit), so I think they've been using a little too much vinegar in the sauce.

Sadly I couldn't enjoy my food at all. Edible, but not satisfactory.

I seldom go up to the Koufu (口福) Food Court in Sun Plaza so we thought to explore what the place have to offer. Noticed a new Sarawak Kolo Mee stall had opened and we decided to give it a try. Mum pointed toward the Sarawak Pork Noodle (沙捞越肉片面) which came served with slices of char siu (叉烧) and blanched pork over curly noodles. Best of all, there is a container filled with crispy pork lard in oil. I scooped a couple tablespoons of it minus the oil into the noodles.

The Mushroom Chicken Feet Noodle (香菇鸡脚面) attracted me with a pair of whole chicken feet, aka Phoenix Claws (凤爪) that had been fried then slow braised. It also has three juicy braised mushrooms to go with the very springy noodles. The chicken feet are so wonderfully tender that you take a section of it in the mouth and suck until all the skin and collagen came off before spitting out the bare bones. Both bowls of noodles cost S$6 each which is quite reasonably priced for an air-conditioned food court.

Hiya. Someone said you're looking for recs. Penang: Get the hop on hop off ticket at georgetown. Get off at each stop towards tanjung bungah. The butterfly park and the toy museum are worth a gander. Georgetown is full of murals and street art. Any char kuay teow is great. Try the prawn noodles too. try duck noodles. Aki pancake @ supertanker. Almond juice and rojak along gurney drive is great too.

KL the parks are great. Food is good but don't try petaling street food unless you have a stomach of steel. It's not exactly clean. Klcc is a tourist trap. But the highest class mamak is murni discovery. Go order an 'i love u' ahahhahaha. The aquarium is so not worth it. If you go ss15 you must try fatbaby ice cream. Then durian. Please try durian. Our orchestra is great. Give it a shot if they're playing while you're here.

Kuching sarawak: food to try in kuching: kolo mee, seafood (damn cheap), manicai, fern, laksa, sago worms (subject to availability), satay. Try the hot springs at annah rais. And visit the border for batik at serikin.

If you. Truly. Honestly. Love. Nature. MULU CAVES fuck i gave myself a panic attack looking at all the stars. It's expensive as heck but the trails are gorgeous and the caves are inspiring. 

Thank you so much - both for the food recs and the honest commentary about what’s worth it and what to expect. Wish I could have you as my tour guide! 

Mate I am HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THIS “i love u” thing; didn’t google it cause I didn’t want to spoil the surprise but let me tell you if I get the chance to order this while i’m there... 

Durian is on the list; haven’t had a fresh one in years! Didn’t even know there was hot springs so will defs look that up. 

YOUR DESCRIPTION OF MULU CAVES SOUNDS AWESOME UGH I CAN’T FIT INTO THIS TRIP SO OH WELP LOOKS LIKE I’LL HAVE TO MAKE A SECOND TRIP ANOTHER TIME

I took a short trip to Borneo over a long weekend to visit some extended family.

As usual, we were greeted at the Old House with a buffet of freshly plucked fruit and hot packets of kolo mee purchased from the small town market nearby. As a city kid, it feels like such a luxury to have hectares of untouched land all to yourself, and enjoy free access to treasures of nature.

My gardener uncle had carefully planned for our arrival since six months prior. Displayed in all their grandeur on the dining table were corn, rambutan, longan, coconut, starfruit, ciku, pineapple and a bunch more that I don't remember because there was simply too much to take stock of. All of them had been carefully grown to ripen within the week of our arrival for maximum sweetness, then plucked that very morning when we touched down.

Did you know that the water from a freshly-plucked coconut is a little salty and slightly effervescent? I sure didn't.

After a quick nap on the couch under the quiet, rhythmic creaking of a ceiling fan that's at least 2 decades older than I am, we got off our asses and made our way to Siniawan Night Market.

One of Sarawak's specialties is tri-colour milk tea, which is a concoction of strong black tea brewed in Southeast Asia's signature style, condensed milk, and a local variant of gula melaka (palm sugar) that is tinged green and flavoured with pandan. Absolutely delicious.

Another entry on the local Good Eats list is deep fried chicken feet. Goes amazing with an ice cold beer on breezy but slightly balmy tropical nights.

Had a lot of fun just snooping around random alleys with my little cousins in tow.

A cool and maybe slightly freaky thing about Siniawan is that it's actually along a small riverbank across Kuching, so you have to take a short 5-minute sampan ride across the creek if you're not interested in am hour-long detour. Let's just say that it's Malaysia and safety laws regarding ferrying capacity aren't exactly a thing.

We'd arrived at the little pier shortly before dusk, and I had fun snapping a couple shots of the purple sunset while waiting for our wobbly ride.

The next day, our clan of 20 went on a 200km road trip in a literal fleet of cars. We rented a beachside villa in the seaside town of Sematan, along the northwestern coast of Sarawak. It was raining heavily the entire day, which made it perfect barbecue weather.

Naturally, yours truly assumed the role of chief line cook. We feasted on pork belly, chicken wings and mud crabs, amongst other forms of deliciousness.

The entire clan woke up at 6am the next morning for an early breakfast. Funny how your palate changes as you age. I used to dislike Sarawak laksa but now I find it pretty alright.

Then we went for a stroll along the beach to take advantage of the relatively cool cloud cover before the tropical sun rose high enough to blast it all away. Felt kinda surreal to be standing in the South China Sea.
