Sorry…

Last week, we went back to this place (2.305823,111.84837)…

…in the Sibu Bus Terminal commercial area because my girl wanted to have the chap fan (mixed rice) again but they said, sorry, they were not having it that day. As a matter of fact, they were not having it the whole week as it was the school holidays and there were also the public holidays in conjunction with Hari Raya Puasa.

It must be very popular, I think, as when we were there, there were other people who came in groups, probably colleagues, from the office but they all went away, disappointed. It did not matter so much to us as we did not mind ordering from their regular menu and while we were waiting, I was kind of tickled by this…

I don’t think I saw that before.

You can help yourself to all the sauces and freshly-cut chili you want here…

…and of course, my missus made a beeline to the corner to help herself to her heart’s delight.

She had the Foochow fried noodles (RM4.00)…

…and yes, it was very nice. It actually surprised me somewhat that despite being a much nicer place, definitely not your regular coffee shop kind of place, the price was the same as many around town and unlike many of those, this one had a lot of meat and vegetables in it.

My girl wanted the salted fish fried rice (RM7.50)…

…that had, other than the bits of salted fish, chopped char siew, sausage and what not in it and it was served with a bit of cincaluk (fermented shrimps)…

…but the serving was too big for her to manage so she only ate around 75% of it – she’s such a small eater, she is.

I ordered the liver soup (RM9.90)…

…to share. It came in a huge bowl and I was quite put off by the sight of it. There was minced meat in it and egg that probably made the soup kind of murky unlike the very nice one that we had here so I did not expect it to be any good. However, we were all pleasantly surprised when we tried as it was very very much to our liking – very strong on the ginger and with lots of the traditional Foochow red wine, just as nice as the one at the other place – one little bowl for RM3.50 – or maybe even nicer and my missus declared that it was so good, just as good as when she cooked it. Hmmmm…I guess she meant her egg drop soup with the red wine for mee sua – we never have liver at home. Hehehehehe!!!

I asked for the kolo mee (RM5.00)…

…and the young and handsome waiter asked if I wanted the flat noodles (mee pok) and I said ok and then he asked if I wanted it red (with char siew oil) and again, I said yes. Sometimes I can be quite a good customer, not at all fussy or difficult. Wink! Wink!

Like all our other orders, it was very nice…

…though like the fried rice, the serving was a bit too big even for me but with a little bit of effort, I did manage to finish it all.

We certainly enjoyed our brunch there and yes, we will be back again…and if you are interested to know what else they serve here, you can click this link here or this one here to have a look at a few options other than those mentioned above.
