Quick Bites #5 (sort of) : BREAKFAST

Char Kueh
Venue : Woon Lam Cafe (behind Secret Recipe in town)
No. 189, Ground Floor, Jln Song Thian Cheok,
93100 Kuching,
Sarawak
Rating : 7.5/10
RM 4.00

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.


 Teh C Peng (medium, but it's HUGE)
Venue : Chong Choon Cafe
Rating : 8/10 (according to an average score from 4 people)
RM 4.00


Sarawak Laksa
Venue : Chong Choon Cafe
 Lot 121, Jalan Abell, Section 3, 93100, Kuching, Sarawak, 93100
Rating : 8/10
RM 4.00 (small)
RM 5.00 (special)

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

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.
