"We start with what is 'arguably the best kolo mee in kuching' at Green Road. Made in the old traditional style, dryish and oily. Yum!!!" xx 
"The next photo shows the kolo mee shop at Green Road in case readers want to make a beeline for it. "(WJ note: The shop is called Sin Lian Shin in case you old foggies can't make out the print on the signboard)

"Next is the Kueh Chap at Carpenter Street (lauyakeng) at night. My daughter thinks it's the best. She won't eat any other."
"Next is the Fish Head Porridge also at Lauyakeng. Some say the one at the Open Air Market is better, but the parking is easier at Carpenter Street at night.

""Also, opposite Lauyakeng is a stall that sells the juiciest fried chicken with the crispiest skin - heaps better than KFC."

"Here are some of the stalls at the Open Air Market on the other side, nearer the taxi stand. Remember Ik Hng?"

(WJ comment: Yeah, I remember many evening meals at Ik Hng, with family and friends. Their Lok Bak (deer meat) with Ginger was one of my favourites!)
"The next photo is of the bestest curry in Kuching.
Its proprietor is a chap called Basil and his stall is at Merry Park in Tabuan Jaya. This is vouched for by none other than our school mate Ben Wong."

Basil Curry sounds good. Does he serve it with bread too? I like mine dipped with bread. Mmmmm
ReplyDeleteFunny you should mention that cos last week when I dropped by at Basil's Curry, our good friend Ben was eating the curry with bread. He brought the bread from home to dip into the curry.
ReplyDeleteI like mine with rice and Basil serves fragrant rice with his curry.
dang, my saliva's dripping onto the keydoard even.

ReplyDeleteKolo Mee is still my favourite. Needs lots of them when I visit Kuching.
ReplyDeleteI love curry with Nan...wonder if that is available at Basil? Hell, if not the rice is good enough...Yammmmm

ReplyDeleteThis is Richard Lim Ngee Hong - also from class of 1976.
ReplyDeleteI used to live across the road from Ik Hng's boss's home! They have shifted to the Kuching Swimming Pool.
Gotta try out some of these eats - will be back this Saturday (Sep 5-10).
Will check out the Kuey Chap & Kolo Mee. Where is the best Sarawak Laksa?
If you find more great places to stuff your face, tell us about them, OK?
