Located at Brighton Square, Life Cafe is renowned for its spicy noodles (RM 7.50). Add another RM1 and you can order Spicy Noodles with Fried Wantan! The fried wantan is delicious and really goes well with the noodles.
Spicy Noodles can be served in three ways : "small spicy", "medium spicy" and "large spicy". Extra noodles or extra spicy sauce can be added on for another RM 1.50 each.

Honest Review : Gourmet Sausage Kuching
Gourmet sausage is quite a popular western dining restaurant in Brighton Square and as its name suggests, they are known for their sausages. We decided to pay this restaurant a visit and we ordered the Six Tiger Meal ( Rm 99.90) which comprises a serving of coleslaw, mashed potatoes, a burger, a bowl of spaghetti bolognaise , pork ribs, chicken fillets, pork sausages, satays , fries , 3 bowls of mushroom soup and 3 bowls of ice cream.
Coleslaw: 8/10
A favorite of everyone and we wished we could have more . Personally i would i rate it higher if there is lesser dressing as it is a tiny bit too sweet.
Mashed Potatoes : 7.5/10
Another hit as we like the very natural and slightly chunky mashed potatoes unlike mass produced powdered ones avaliable in fast food chains. The amount again is too little for 6 people and i would lick the plate clean if they had the KFC style gravy.
Mushroom Soup : Rating undeserved
At first taste it was super bland and all you could taste was the shiitake mushroom after taste slightly bittersweet. After much addition of salt and pepper it was more palatable . However, i feel that this dish is poorly executed because it was beautifully presented. I hope Gourmet sausage would rethink their recipe. It needs cream, good chicken stock, butter,splash of white wine and sweated onions to lift the soup more.
Spaghetti Bolognaise: 8/10
I actually like the spaghetti bolognaise as it has a twist of pork sausages in them. I only wished there was more pasta as the sauce and meat kinda overwhelm the dish. It felt more like beef stew with pasta as the garnish.
The Platter : Burger, Fries, Ribs, Sausages, Satays, Chicken Fillet
Rating: 7/10
There are some hits and misses for the last course . We think Gourmet Sausage has the best fries in Kuching as the seasoning on them are really nice. A great suggestion would to include options of shoestring size chips or wedges. Burger was also a favourite and so was the juicy sausages. I would definitely come here if i am craving for western sausages unlike our heavily processed sausages in the freezer. The meats on the other hand were on the dry size which is a shame as they are nicely flavoured. For example, the meat on the ribs were dry and flaky which is a sign that the ribs have been overcooked. I hope it's not the same for our readers
Other highlights:
1. The Tabasco sauce and mustard ran out and wasn't replenished on the counter. There should have been more condiments and sauces available for customers
2. A refill of ice water ended up being an additional order which is contrary to the "free flow of water" statement on the menu. Though it was an honest mistake, it is the principle that counts.
3. Service from the waiter or waitresses were not attentive enough. For example, they did not clear the empty plates or dishes after the course quickly enough making it difficult for customers to eat as more dishes arrive.
The experience at Gourmet sausage overall was great because of a clean cosy environment and mostly good food for the night. We did end on a sweet note , LITERALLY, because we had free ice cream and lollipops , a kind gesture from their restaurant to the customers. Prices are really affordable and we recommend this place to anyone who is looking for yummy sausages and western meals. It is not a huge restaurant but a good size for 10-20 people if you're thinking to go as a group.

Off the Shelves : Royce Chocolate
Since the Chinese New Year and Valentine's day is coming up, what better than to review yummy chocolates. Royce chocolates, a premier brand which can only unfortunately be ordered from KL or Japan
Visit their page at http://www.e-royce.com/english/index.html
Rm 45 chocolatey goodness.
Yummy chocolate truffles and i highly recommend it. I rate it 9/10 as each truffles melt in your mouth.
Bubble Talk : Chatime
Hitting the shores of Kuching just recently, Chatime, a worldwide brand for bubble tea has been raved over crazily by bubble tea fanatics. After a displeasing order previously, I've decided to give it another chance to review their Pearl Milk Tea.
Rm 6.90 for a Large size Pearl Milk Tea.
Just like Easy Drink Easy Go, Chatime equally has the same problem of not having adequate amount of menus. It would be easier if they use the advertisement boards and display more prices as it will help speed up the ordering process. The great thing is that their menus are more readable and clear.
Chatime workers hard at work.
Waiting time: 5 minutes without queue
Testing their customer service again, i ordered non-sugar Pearl Milk Tea and yet again, he failed to hear it can kept on repeating normal sugar. I had to repeat non-sugar till he got it . I would suggest using the numerical system of 100, 70, 50, 30, 0% instead of normal, non, less, more which is so subjective.
Palm sized comparison of the Pearl Milk tea
Rate: 7/10
Tasting their milk tea , the flavour of the tea leaves is more evident than Easy Drink Easy go but by a very small margin. The pearls are much nicer as it is more "QQ" or chewy however sometimes inconsistent.
In a nutshell, it's a battle of quality over quantity. Rm 5.90 Easy Drink Easy Go which is huge or Rm6.90 for a smaller but better tasting tea and pearls? Rm1 can make a difference :)

Bubble Talk: Easy drink, Easy Go
We have a new segment entitled bubble talk where wewill review drinks on the go, mostly bubble teas.
So we decided to taste test Easy Drink, Easy Go which is located at The Spring basement level . First glance, it's hard to decide a drink to choose and their prices because of the limited amount of menus (only 2 that day) which i think is the major cause of the queue.
The great thing about this shop is large size for Rm 5.90 which is good considering it is more expensive than normal bubble tea shops out there. The other popular *coughchatimecough* size isn't as big as this. I was very impressed with super sturdy cups which is great for those who are driving or on the go where most give flimsy plastic or paper cups. I believe it wouldn't even give a dent if you drop it from waist height.
I'm also impressed that there are sugar levels to choose from and they do pay attention towards it as compared to Dingtea or Chatime who still GAVE me sugar in my drinks. That deserve a rant for another day. As i can't have sugar in my drinks, i kow-tow to Easy Drink, Easy Go for this. By the way you can opt for brown sugar or gula melaka which is kinda interesting to hear.
Conclusively, if you are thirsty, need a large drink and craving for milk tea which won't empty your wallet, do give Easy Drink, Easy Go a try.
p/s: Googling them online reveals that this isn't a Taiwanese franchise but rather a franchise selling Taiwanese style bubble milk tea. It should be a Malaysian based company.

Rm 5.90 Signature bubble milk tea
Overall rating : 6.5/10
Milk tea : Taste okay but a bit too milky in my opinion. One can taste the distinct creamer taste
Tapioca pearls : Slightly too soft but good pearls nonetheless
To make a fair judgement of each bubble tea shop we decided to taste the basic of basics, their signature bubble milk tea. No flavourings, no frills. Contrary to popular belief, the bubble in bubble milk tea are not the tapioca pearls but rather the milky froth from shaking the tea in the shaker or machine. Thus there was confusion when i was ordering my drink .

Quick Bites #9: Lunch at Little Borneo
Little Borneo is located at Jalan Song around the Brighton Square area. This Malay food(definitely Halal) outlet is close to Mars Cybercafe and Causeway Bay Restaurant. It is well known for its nasi goreng ayam penyet dish (which in my opinion beats the ayam penyet at Rumah Hijau, but that's for another time) and nasi lemak.
Nasi Goreng Ayam Penyet
RM 7.50
Rating: 8/10
*The sambal sauce is AWESOME!!!*
Mee Mamak

Quick Bites #8 : Pan-Fried Dumplings
Fried Dumplings
RM 4.00
Venue : Wonderful Cafe (Taiwanese Cuisine stall) @ Hui Sing
Rating : 6/10
The fried dumpling is actually quite good considering the amount you get for the price of RM 4.00. The only thing lacking (as commented by one of the moderators) is that it isn't that juicy as we would have liked it to be. Another dish that is especially delicious from this stall is the Fried Egg Pancake (I would rate it 7.5/10) (Sorry for the lack of picture). Definitely one of the best I have tasted in my life though :)

Quick Bites #7 : Breakfast at Tar-Zen
A popular place for breakfast area for Kuchingnites, it's always a pain to find a good carpark spot. Do visit this place if you are willing to walk a little :)
Let's swing by Tar-Zen shall we ?
Rm 5.00
Lau Shu Fen (Mouse tail noodles) With Beancurd soup
Rate 7/10
A pretty average bowl of "lau shu fen" with mixed soup of stuffed beancurd, prawns, local veggies, fishballs and seaweed. I believe this is a very well balanced meal to start of the day and the price is decent for the amount and delicious soup you're getting. The only thing i'm unsure is the underlying overpowering sweetness from the bean sprouts in the soup. I would love to taste a salty soup stock rather than "bean sprout soup" .
A typical bowl of Sarawak Laksa Rm 4.00
Rate 6/10
I did not have the opportunity to taste this but a friend mentioned that it is slightly above average. Nonetheless, it is a good portion for brekkie.
Other mentions is to try the Kolo Mee in this coffee shop. Next time maybe :)

Honest Review : Sushi Buffet @ Orchid Garden Coffeehouse
What can i say, i simply love buffets and one of the places i do go to occasionally is their seasonal themed luncheon or dinner buffets at Orchid Garden Coffeehouse, Grand Margherita Hotel Kuching. Last November, i had to opportunity to try out the Japanese or Sushi-themed luncheon and i was really excited. I was thinking of all the grilled eels, tempura and sashimi i could devour.
2. Basic food are alright but do them well. The usage of sushi rice flavouring was minimal but what irked me the most is the non-usage of sushi rice and fillings. I expected more variety other than just cucumber, crab sticks , tuna and egg. How about caviar, prawns, avocado, crab, and radishes? Most meats were overcooked including the fish which is hard to eat. Not only that, the sashimi slices were very thin and not enjoyable. I felt like i was eating fish garnishes instead
3. The saving grace i would say is the tiramisu (sounds japanese but it isn't japanese) and the udon. I love the udon as the basic soup stock was right and noodles were cooked well.
6. Jellies were HORRENDOUS. Please don't make them anymore, you are doing Kuching a favour.
To end positively, the restaurant and toilet is clean .
p/s: Try their western or Ramadhan buffet instead. Those are way WAY better.
Selection of fried rice and grilled fish. I don't understand how chinese fried rice topped with Japanese dried tuna flakes is Japanese cuisine.
Cold japenese soba noodles, baby octopus, jellyfish and sushi rolls
Selection of tempuras and meat skewers. And no, they are not yakitoris.
Grilled salmon
Cakes and desserts
Sashimi of eel, tuna, and octopus
Udon
Temaki-California roll
Soba noodles
Chef of the day?
Dragonfruit
More Cakes
Generally i was left with a bad taste in my mouth not from the flavor of the food but the big disappointment as most of the food were a let down.
1. I felt that the food design and menu is very poorly thought out and is very basic. Sushi rolls, tempura , udon and soba are of course signature dishes but there are so much more to the Japanese cuisine. Where are the okonomiyakis , yakitoris, miso soup , mochis, green tea desserts and etc? Green tea wasn't even served !

3. The saving grace i would say is the tiramisu (sounds japanese but it isn't japanese) and the udon. I love the udon as the basic soup stock was right and noodles were cooked well.
4. Tempura wasn't tempura as the coating is for banana fritters.
5. Cold dishes were great but i can buy that from any supermarket in Kuching
6. Jellies were HORRENDOUS. Please don't make them anymore, you are doing Kuching a favour.
In a nutshell, any Japanese who walks into this buffet would probably throw sake all over the restaurant , burn the place down and then proceed to do a harakiri. I'm afraid it gives a bad name to the Japanese cuisine which is full of flavour and technicalities. Unless you are rich and is willing to spend approx RM50-60++ for cold dishes and udon , be my guest .
To end positively, the restaurant and toilet is clean .

Quick Bites #6 : Matcha and Red Bean @ ZenQ
Hooray for the first dessert post ! I bet most of us Kuchingnites have been to ZenQ which is a moniker for the texture of the jellies and gelatinous treats in being very "springy and chewy".
My friend decided to get the grass jelly (awesome taste by the way), sweet potato , taro and pearl jellies. I know how to make these and i find them overrated but i shall leave that to another recipe post in the upcoming future. I'll definitely come back for the grass jelly :)
However , the highlight i wanna bring today is Matcha and red bean shaved ice. I'm a fan of green tea desserts and it's really hard to find good drinks or desserts in Kuching with matcha in them . I still dream of the shake i drank randomly at a Japanese shop which has underlying flavours of nuts, sesame, red bean intermingled with the essence of tea. ZenQ's version cannot compare to the elites but i give them a fare score of 7/10 . I like that it isn't sweet and allow the red bean to shine through. I would love to have whole adzuki red beans which is glossy from the long stew and hints of sesame seeds through the shaved ice.
Overall, it is a great place to cool down on a hot day and i would encourage all Kuchingnites to visit this place at least once .

Woon Lam Cafe is famous for its char kueh, kueh chap and laksa. The char
kueh has a distinct crispiness that outclasses most char kueh's in
Kuching. It's served sweet, salty or mixed with homemade sambal/chilli
sauce. I personally prefer the salty one (as shown in the picture).
As the laksa at Woon Lam had finished selling, we decided to head to Chong Choon Cafe in town.

One of the best laksa in Kuching. Be sure to go there early if you want the special. When we arrived, they had run out of their "special" ingredient to be added in their special. Nevertheless, the small bowl was superbly yummy too.
Quick Bites #4 :Pork Porridge @ Ciak Pa Boi
"Have you Eaten? ", is the translation of this interesting biker inspired cafe, Ciak Pa Boi. It was a rainy morning and we decided to check this place out.
Rm 6.00 Pork Porridge
Two thumbs up!
Rate 8.5/10
Rate 8.5/10
Out of the many stalls that was available to patronize , i decided to try the pork porridge on a whim. I wasn't having any high expectations and have never heard any recommendations about it, but i was absolutely blown away by the amazing taste every grain of rice it gives. It's truly a testament to our blog's motto where peasant food like a bowl of rice gruel can be served to a King. The pork balls were juicy and flavorful and they were so generous with their century egg. The only downside is that i wished i could have a larger bowl for the price compared to other porridge places in town. Mark my words, this porridge rocks your socks way higher than the ones served in Open Air market Kuching. If you like "juicy pork balls" and creamy porridge , this is the place for you.
Did i mentioned we were treated like Kings?
They had a dedicated umbrella guy to escort you from your car to the cafe and back FOC! Excellent service and attitude more cafes in Kuching should have . Thank you unknown stranger if you are reading this post.
Visit this amazing cafe at G/F, 521-522, S/L 1, Jln Datuk Tawi Sli, Kuching, Sarawak 93250, Malaysia
Other things you should check out are their charcoal grilled toast :)
p/s: They have clean tissue-loaded toilets :)
Quick Bites #3: Pork Burger @ Coffee Talk, Tabuan Laru
Pork burgers have seen a (not so recent) uprising in Kuching, with moderate to good stalls opening up throughout the town. Today we will introduce the Pork Burger Stall at Coffee Talk, Tabuan Laru. As you can see, the prices are slightly above average. This is justified by its quality taste.
Here are some of the burgers we tried:
The Great MotherPorker, Signature dish!
Rank: 8/10
The Outback Burger Rank: 8/10 |
But in conclusion, its not bad and deserves a try for burger aficionados everywhere.

Quick Bites #2 : Big Mouth Chicken Rice
One of the moderators of this blog had a random craving of chicken rice so we head out to Big Mouth Cafe , reputedly known for their chicken rice and an interesting piece of story. Rumour has it (cues Adele music) that the chicken rice owner severed a hand of a customer over the bill . I'm not sure whether it's true but if you know the whole ordeal, do comment as we would like to know more.
Rm 5.00 chicken rice
Up Close
We rate it 5/10
To us, it's the typical run-of-the-mill chicken rice which taste pretty average. The rice, pickles, soup were okay but slightly disappointed with the chicken and chilli. I had the dark meat however was really dry while the chilli lacked the tangyness from the fresh lime and ginger . Maybe, they just had a bad day with the meat. Compared to Rm 2.50-3.50 chicken rice elsewhere it's pretty decent but props to them for excellent fast service.
I don't know about you but i rather "hand" in the bill :P

Honest Review:Secret Garden, Kuching
Secret garden is a bistro and bar nestled in the city area , neighboring the Civic center and Jambu restaurant. Greeted by beautiful landscaping of palm trees, golden lights and what seems to be like a private outdoor banquet dining area gives high hopes that perhaps the night would be perfect.
The outdoors
The Interior Design
We decided to rate the restaurant a 6/10 for the ambiance and service. The great thing about this bistro is the large spaces available for groups of 15 or more perfect for birthdays. Decorations and lighting are nice and creates a warm friendly atmosphere. Negative points go towards the chairs which are mostly unstable or old and the environment which can be too warm at times. Not being anti-religious, it was also awkward halfway through the dinner when the Muslim prayers were blasted through the night. It was hard to talk and communicate during that period. The waiter was impressive handling a large group and remembering most of the order placements. However, he can improve by speaking louder and communicating clearer. Toilets are clean too which is super!
Let's tuck in shall we?
Longkang Water, I mean... Mushroom Soup. Rm5.90 Rank: 3/10 |
We wanted to rate it 1/10 but decided that since we (unbelievably) finished it in the end, we'd rate it 3/10.Reason being it has mushroom, cream and it is edible though unpleasant.
Note: One of our editors have tasted the Mushroom Soup at Gormet Sausage and insisted that THAT should be ranked 1/10 instead, but it is a story for another day.
Aglio Olio |
Aglio Olio Rm15.90 poorer Rank: 4/10 |
Secret Garden Salad |
Secret Garden Salad Rm6 .90 Rank: 7/10 |
Negative points were due to the long strips of carrots and cucumber which made it hard to eat (like noodles) which often flicks the dressing around. Besides that, I was a bit apprehensive whether the dressing was watered down or homemade. Still tasted great nonetheless.
Lamb Chop |
Lamb Chop RM24.50. Rank: 8/10 |
We wished it could have been served with mint sauce. Also, the restaurant should give the choice for the cooking of the meat. Across the table, we could see inconsistencies in cooking times some being medium rare and some being well done. Great thing is that none was raw, PHEW!
Cordon Bleu |
Fish and Chips Rank: 5/10 |
In defence of Secret Garden, we know of other fish and chips out there that taste worse. And we still licked the platter clean. Its just very hard to please us.
Tomato Bee Hoon RM6.90
Rank: 8/10
Secret Garden also serves a wide array of Asian Cuisines so we decided to give it a go. A Kuching gem, the tomato sauce noodles is hard to cook but Secret Garden fared well. Good amount of carbs ratio to the sauce of perfectly balanced salty and sweet with golden nuggets of fried onions , the dish was great! The chicken breast and accompanying condiments were succulent and fresh which is a great surprise. It seemed Secret Garden had a great asian food strength other fellow diners were raving about their Fried Rice.
I didn't rank it 10/10 because that would mean i died and went to heaven over a Tomato Bee Hoon. It's not there yet. Haha
If you would like to patronise this place
In a nutshell, this place is great for big dining parties and for selective food. We would recommend the steak or chops and the Asian cuisine as we can say for sure that those would be safe options for a great evening.
