When was the last time…

The last time I was here was in February, 2017! No, it has not called it quits or anything – business is as good as always but I had not dropped by as I would choose to go elsewhere for want of something different to blog about.

I always tell people that this is my favourite kampua mee in town though some would insist it is more like a cross between Sibu kampua and Kuching kolo mee, not quite authentic like the real thing.

Well, my sister-in-law flew into town the other day for Ching Ming and on the way down from the airport, we stopped by here for brunch. She had the kampua tau eyew puak lak – in Foochow, that is kampua with dark soy sauce and tossed with chili sauce…

…while my missus had the kampua pak puak lak, kampua white (with chio cheng or light soy sauce) tossed with chili sauce…

I had the white…

…without any of the sauces as I prefer the original taste without all those that may affect it in any way. Usually, they will give you the chili sauce in a small saucer so I can always add that myself whenever I feel like it needs that to enhance the taste a bit. I did not have to do that here, of course – it was just as nice as before. It is now RM3.00 a bowl – I remember it used to be a bit cheaper but that is the going price of kampua mee at most places these days.

I asked for a bowl of the beef soup…

…to share and yes, it was very nice. I did not ask how much that was though but the overall total for that and the three bowls of noodles and our drinks came up to only RM18.00, only RM6.00 per head – that sure is cheap, don’t you think?
