Sarawak Eats: Chinese

I Corner @ Parkcity Bintulu

Was surprised to find a good makan place here! Packed with people at 1pm. They have a good selection of food, like Bak kut teh, Vegetarian, Pan Mee, Mixed rice, etc... I went for the chicken rice stall which was the favourite here I think. Ordered Siew Yok Fan and paid a shocking RM 6.80 for it. Tasted good. Big plate! But so expensive???

Kolok mee @ Miri

As usual we went to Yakin Food Centre @ Miri for breakfast. Ordered the kolok mee from the inside stall.... RM 3/bowl now! Didn't quite like the smell of pork. The noodle is springy, char siew and fish cake is fresh. As always, the whole bowl of mee is so salty :(

Tomato Kuey Teow @ Bintulu

Ate at: Farley Food Court (new Parkcity area)
Paid: RM 5
Verdict: Was quite shocked when served because the tomato colour was too artificial. A bit too starchy and sour for my liking.
Rating: 5/10

Char Kuey Teow @ Miri

Eat this at : Yakin Food Centre, Miri (the last stall)

Price: RM 4.50

Verdict: Thumbs up! The noodle is fried until so fragrant with a slight burnt smell. Eat with the sour sambal and fried egg for extra oomph!

Rating: 8/10

Popiah @ Bintulu

Another one of my all-time favourite!
Ate at: Popular Corner Seafood Restaurant for brekkie
Paid: RM 3 for 2 rolls
Verdict: One non-spicy, one spicy. Filled with all the standard fillings for popiah-mangkuang, taugeh,carrot, green vege, dried shrimps, peanuts. Tasted ok :)

Vegetable Dumplings (Cai Kuih) @ Bintulu

One of my favourite food of all times. Bought this from Mong Kok Foodcourt (Popular Corner Seafood Restaurant) at Bintulu old town area. A little bit expensive at RM 2 for 3 pieces of nicely made and nicely packed cai kuih. Ate this for breakfast 2 days in a row. Best cai kuih here!

Fish Head Curry @ Bintulu

Location: Happy Garden Seafood Restaurant, Bintulu
Price: RM 31 for 2 pax
Verdict: Almost every table ordered this. Very fragrant! Comes with ladies' fingers, brinjals and fu chok. Curry with lotsa kunyit goodness. Got muak at the end of the meal though. Will be back for the crabs!

Nine 2 Five Cafe @ Miri

This is my second time here for lunch. It's located at Pelita area. First time I wanted to go vegetarian so I ordered Mapo Tofu which I didn't take a photo of it, but it was not good, like 5/10.

Fish Tofu

This round, I had this Fish Tofu. It was really really good! It tasted more like egg + tofu. I think it was supposed to be crispy but it wasn't (much to my delight), a bit soggy just nice for me. I love the sweet mayo on top. Do give it a try the next time you visit this place! :)

Kampung Seafood House, Bintulu

Wanted to try this for some time after being recommended by my friend. This place is rather spacious, with non-aircond and aircond section. There were not many customers that day probably due to Raya plus it was raining. Not sure whether they served pork, people working there were a mix of Chinese and Malay.

Hubby ordered pandan barley.

I got this young coconut for RM4.50. Quite expensive to me.

MENU!

RM40/kg mud crab. Bigger crabs compared to what we always eat. We ordered fried crabs with egg. Not nice..... I would say 5/10. I've tasted much better ones. They put lemongrass into this dish, tasted weird. The crab meat was tasty though.
