Sibu Gawai road trip [food edition]

the food that we sampled during the trip was undeniably one of the best I've had... as Daniel and I were overwhelmed by the quality of the food served...

stopped by somewhere before Sarikei for lunch... wild boar meat, softshell turtle meat and some vege... pardon the half eaten state of the food... forgot to take photos when they arrived...

dinner@Sibu's YMCA... seriously huge mud prawns...

look at the size of the prawns... I'm not kidding man... the head alone was half the size of my palm...
-____-'

forgot the name of the fish... apparently we were told that it is the third most expensive fish in Sibu...

with good food, I owes happy...

oversized bee-hun... with chicken spare parts cooked with wine... *forgot the name d*

a compulsory group shot of the trio... with Sibu's landmark temple behind...

*next up, visit to a modern long house in Sibu Jaya... and it was one hell of a partaaaay...*

turtle meat? is that turtle protected species?

dreckker said...

misse: I suppose so... cos it wasn't me who ordered it... Daniel's boss ordered it for us... and it was really good...

renaye: err... I think river terrapins are not protected species, and they are widely consumed in Sarawak...

don't worry, it's definitely not those protected species like leatherbacks, hawksbill or greenbacks... :)
