Sio Bee and Soy Milk

Although this dim sum like snack can be found almost everywhere, but Kuching's sio bee is more unique (even the name as well) it don't have fancy topping, neither expensive filling , but it is simply delicious when having it with a glass of cold soy milk, if you are a heavy taster, dip it in chilli sauce, after you have your sio bee you can always have a cup of ice cream at the last stall.

Squid and water spinach salad

Despite of it disgusting look and name, it is actually quite nice and refreshing to eat. The taste is slightly spicy and rather sweet. And it usually served together with rojak (mixed fruit salad). Nowadays this dish is quite hard to find but you can still find it in Kuching open air market.

Starbucks Coffee

If you are a Starbucks frenzy, don't worry, it is also available in Kuching. This photo is taken in Starbucks of Merdeka Plaza. My brother and I are having rest after the tiring photo shooting....

Noodle in ketchup sauce

This is the noodle in ketchup sauce, this noodle is quite popular in Kuching. It is basically deep-fried noodle, dipped in tomato gravy. The topping is vary depend on the chef, but mostly they will put seafood as the topping, but for this one, the topping is red barbecue chicken. If you like to have a try at this dish, it is available almost in everywhere in Kuching but this one is from the Kuching open air market.

Kolo Mee

One of the Kuching's famous food, can said to be the biggest representative in Kuching since you can't find this in any other place. This Kolo Mee can be served with red barbecued chicken or pork, it usually served with red and sweety gravy that been make with some special spice,but you also can have it without gravy which we usually called it as White Kolo Mee. Since this is a famous traditional food,so you can find it in any place in Kuching but since it is a old style traditional food, so most of the young generation would not know the recipe and since it is so famous, they will make this food using their own recipe which is not good. Nowadays you can hardly find a good Kolo Mee which still have the traditional taste, most of the Kolo Mee sell out there is not so nice and not good for the health. But if you really want to try this traditional delight, I know a place where you can find a good one. It is a small restaurant (or known as Kopitiam) located somewhere near the RPR 12 mile Kuching, this Kopitiam is operated by a pair of middle age couple.
