Didn’t I tell you I would be back? Well, I did. Sometime ago, I told the Malay lady that I would be back because the last time I dropped by, I ordered mihun (rice vermicelli) but she served me mee (noodles) instead. She apologised for her mistake but I said that it was all right [...]
This came by special delivery the other day… What a big box! Who had sent it? What was inside? I opened it quickly and was just as mystified when I saw the box… Now, who on earth would send me an electric kettle? Whatever for? When I opened the box, I found this box of [...]
Here, one of the options that you can choose for breakfast would be the gu tor (beef tripe) noodles… I have heard of two places in town that people claim are good but I have yet to go and try myself. I had this one at the coffee shop at the back portion of the [...]
Through gritted teeth and forcing myself to ignore the misspelt and ungrammatical name in English, I went and try this new place in town located at the back portion of this coffee shop. I had the cray…I mean, claypot bak kut teh (herbal pork bone soup)… …which tasted quite good especially for people who consider [...]
It is indeed so very long – this longhouse at Rantau Kemeding in Kanowit… …sited along the very serene Kanowit River… I came here for the Gawai Dayak Festival way back in 1978 and 1979, if I remember correctly but of course, it was not as nice then… In my previous post, I mentioned that [...]
I was here… …in Kanowit town back in 1978 – my first posting after graduating as a teacher. I loved the kampua noodles then… …and I love it now. Philip and I went on a leisurely drive to Kanowit last Saturday – he grew up there and moved away when he was 10. The first [...]
My missus and I went out for a bite the other evening but our original destination was not open and eventually we ended up at Taman Selera Muhibbah, an open air hawker centre located not far from my house. I was delighted that my regular satay stall there was already open for business even though [...]
Gerard, my ex-student who incidentally is also my godson, was back in Sibu for the mid-year holidays but for some reason, we did not manage to get to meet until last Friday for lunch and he would be leaving the very next day for Melbourne, Australia where he is currently pursuing his tertiary education. I [...]
My daughter loves these… …but since I became ultra-sensitive to msg, I’ve stopped going to the place where we used to go as I seem to feel uneasy after eating probably due to the excessive use of the stuff. I’ve tried a number of other places but did not think they are up to the [...]
If Cleffairy were to accuse me of putting up this post with the sole intention of torturing Annie-Q, I would definitely plead guilty as charged as she would be so darn right! LOL!!! You see, in her comment the other day, Annie said, “Did you just mention ‘quinee’??? WOW!! So so long I never had [...]
