assorted food snaps VI

the Char Siew (叉烧) from Fang Yuan (芳圆茶室) is the ultimate fatty pork goodness...

was at this new restaurant in town - Delizze... ordered this, but forgotten the name of it...

one was filled with shrimp while the other was cheese... just nice for a light meal...

mix platter of chicken, char siew & BBQ pork...

the overhyped McDonald's GCB, tasted pretty good, but I'm never gonna pay close to RM10 for such a puny burger... totally not worth it... a RM5 roadside Ramli burger special is a way better deal... =)

now these are good stuff, especially the one on the left ---> bacon-flavoured crackers... *yums*... =p

note: bacon-flavoured means non-Halal ok... hehehe...

had a feast on mum's birthdday...

lunched at 3 Point Restaurant on mum's birthday last month... got this buffet thingy going on... order whatever u want on the menu... and the dishes will be cooked & served...

sesame oil chicken... =P

fried beef... different style...

some vege...

the crazy amount of orders we made... of course my sister and brader-in-law were back here celebrating mum's birthday also... else u think can mehh... eat until wanna faint ok...

last but not least, a heavily cheesed American cheesecake from Hilton for mother.... =)

lunch bento delivered...

Hedo asked me whether I wanna order a lunch bento or not yesterday morning, and since I have not tried it, I went to the website http://greenbento.blogspot.com to check out what was on offer. Decided to go for the Laksa Chicken Rice. The price of RM5.50 is inclusive of a canned drink, and I opted for Grass Jelly (仙草).


The food arrived a bit after 12.30pm. The portion was pretty generous, and it tasted quite good in fact. The amount of laksa chicken was actually more than the rice because after finishing the rice, there were still a few pieces of chicken left.


RM5.50 for a lunch bento plus drinks sent to the office. Price is reasonable, and now I've got another option during lunch. It's best when it is raining outside, or when you feel too lazy to walk over to a nearby kopitiam for lunch.

house warming

was invited to my cousin's new house warming dinner last Sunday. went over with my parents. for Kuching standard, the house is located very far from downtown. I'm not sure of the location name, but the residential area is called Semamba Park. it took about 45 minutes to get there from my house, which is only 15 minutes from Kuching city centre, so if adding that up during a typical work day traffic jam... well, it's gonna be one hell of a bumper to bumper more-than-an-hour snail ride to get to work and to go home...


the house is a corner terrace, so it's quite big. RM300,000. plus extension of the kitchen area and some renovation work, an additional RM120,000. For me, IF I were to spend RM420,000 on a new house, I'd probably be able to get an intermediate terrace of similar size (without having the extension/renovation work) 20 minutes from the city center. I'd rather spend that range of money on a place closer to town than spending it like how my cousin & the husband did.


the food was served buffet style - got Pork leg, fried prawns, Kah-Chang-Mah, fried chicken, noodles, fried rice, fish fillet and mixed vege. there were more than enough food for everyone.

lunch at Tracy's Kitchen

went out for lunch with a friend yesterday as all the usual lunch colleagues had their own appointments. bought a few cashsweep tickets along the way as there's a special draw yesterday (didn't kena... crap!!).


ordered this ice cucumber juice... first time try, and it was actually pretty good... (RM3)


Tracy's Kitchen serves one of the better drunken chicken and pak-lo chicken/duck in town, but I opted for this rendang chicken this time instead after the taukeh's recommendation. The gravy was okay (not as good as how the Malays do it), but the thigh meat was definitely cooked to perfection - tender and juicy. (RM4.80 with rice)


also ordered this pak-lo duck liver to go with the meat & rice. tasty stuff I tell ya! the bill came to abit less than RM10 per person, so it's a reasonable place to go to.
