Well, it sure looks good to me…right down to the char siew oil used to toss the noodles (RM3.20)…
…and I would say that it looks nicer and tastes better too than some of the kolo mee that I had here…
…there…
…and everywhere in Kuching…
…and they even give the chili in vinegar dip that usually comes with it when one has kolo mee in the state capital…
Well, if you’re wondering which one in particular I’m taking about, it’s from the stall here…
…at this coffee shop…
…further in where the Sunday market is every weekend with the Fortune Commercial Centre to the right (the shops behind the Rejang Medical Centre)…
…and the new supermarket right in front…
…with its main entrance a little to the left.
Maybe I was just recovering from my flu and cough but I did not think I was all that impressed…
Sure, it was nice enough but at that price, I would much sooner go for the kolo-mee-like kampua noodles here for RM2.50 only and needless to say, it came nowhere near some of the best in Kuching…
I guess it is something like having kampua mee elsewhere. One of my cousins, back here from KL, said, “Never mind where, which shop or stall, the kampua in Sibu is still better than any in Kuching or anywhere else!” So if it’s kolo mee that you want, hop over to Kuching – chances are you’d find the best there…not here.
