Food store at the road side of Tapah (22nd mile- outskirt of kuching)

So if you travel to Serian or wherever, and you may pass by Tapah or you just simply want to find nice food, I would recommend you a food store at the road side of Tapah's main road after the buddha pavilion. I do not know the name of the store because there is no sign of it but I do know the number of their store is No. 2. :)  Ok, their food is really really nice especially their chicken feet (you can't find any nicer chicken feet in Kuching at least I never eat any chicken feet nicer than theirs in Kuching), fried rice, craypot fish/kueh tiew/ bee hoon/ noodle, and their lemon chicken. These are the MUST EAT food if you patronise their store. Beside than that, you can try their baby kailan, hokkien noodle etc. it's nice too.

So, this is how the store looks, it's just opposite the 100% discount store located in Tapah. They only operate at night time, though I am not too sure about their operating hours.

So how nice is the food? I would introduce their chicken feet first. The chicken feet is fat and very very soft. when you eat it, you can feel the collagen is dancing in your mouth. and the taste is very simple but yet, very nice... I guess the ingredients include dark soya source, ginger, garlic shoot and maybe some other things I do not know...

So next, fried rice. I do not know how they make it, but it is extraordinarily nice. I see they only fried with chicken, eggs, garlic, and green onion but it is magically nice... you have to try it out and try to figure what is their mysterious ingredients... hehehe~ 

 

This time we ordered craypot bee hoon but I can tell you whatever craypot they have are all delicious!!!!!! I am being too lazy to describe so please just look at the picture... I don't know how to describe too... I mean come on, your gotta try it out. 

It's sad that we did not order lemon chicken this time (because I just recovered from fever,flu and cough) thus I am so so so sorry that I am unable to show you guys the picture but do order it if you patronise to their store... and you can try their baby kailan as well, it's mysteriously crunchy....

Last but not least, Hokkien noodle... this may be a bit different from Singapore's hokkien noodle but anyway, the name is hokkien noodle as well...  whatever... it's nice anyway~ 

Ok, so that's all for today... will update the next blog after I attended to nice place ate the nice food. tata~

Dinner at Hoi Tin Lou Restaurant in Kuching

The last day of year 2012, I had my dinner at Hoi Tin Lou Restaurant which is located at Jalan Mendu in Kuching. I strongly recommend  if you feel like to have Chinese cuisine for dinner or even lunch. 

So, the suggested dishes include spinach noodle, roasted piglet, Thai style midin, Vietnamese prawn, and oyster pancake. Though there are so many nice dishes available at the but I'll recommend these few dishes at the moment. Additionally, the chief is a winner of few international chinese cuisine competition in china.

The spinach noodle tasted very different from other kind of noodles, plus, I guess the noodle is handmade so it tasted very special. How special is it? try it out then you know. The roasted piglet is so so crispy on the skin but soft in the meat. When you eat the meat, you will feel that it's melting in your mouth and you don't even need to chew much. Thai style  midin very tasteful especially the dry salted shrimp stirred with the midin enhance the taste of midin up to another level. Vietnamese prawn tasted sweet and spicy served with its bun which is crispy on the skin but soft inside. oyster pancake is very crispy too and the amount of oyster just right for the whole dish so you wont feel disgusted. Let's stop reading and look at the pictures. I am really bad in explaining how nice the food tasted, so it's best if you can try it out.
