Satok Sunday Market

The Sunday Market starts on Saturday afternoon despite the name. It is held at Jalan Satok. You will find variety of stalls run by different races and dialects which mainly consist of the natives, malay and chinese. Goods offer includes handicrafts, fruits, vegetables, snacks, foods, groceries. You can also find rare forest products like delicious wild honey, pitcher plants, orchids and live fish. The market is a must for weekend visitors as it is very colourful and teeming with shoppers. The best tune to go is during Saturday night or early Sunday morning.

Note of caution: Always be alert of pickpockets

What makes this laksa unique? The usual laksa you find elsewhere  is cooked with santan (coconut milk) , whereas this one is cooked with condensed milk. Coconut milk is very high in fat and cholestrol when boiled for long duration. It will not be good for diabetics as its too high in cholesterol. So if you ever craved for a healthier version of laksa, you can always try this one. Regular laksa - RM3.50 with prawns!

Another one which I always ordered, the Kay See Mee / KC Mee. No its not a person’s name. It basically means chicken meat noodle.  Noodle portion is generous. Can’t recall the price for this, I think its about rm3.00

Kuching City Car Rental

This is a review on car rental service in Kuchihng. If you ever need a car, always go for the licensed car rental. The real problem lies ahead when the car involves in any accidents which will then involves claims and insurance. Yes there are few companies that lower their rental rates to very low. Would you take the risk or would you rather pay a little more for security.

Kuching City Car Rental is well established in both services and problem management. It takes cost to maintain the cars, after sales service, on time delivery, and credit cards facility. All these require some man power and overhead cost coverage. That makes the car rental service slightly higher than the non licensed car rental.

This is the Nasi Ayam Penyet or Ayam Penyek. Had this sometime ago and just wanted to share it. Its an Indonesian dish but its quite commonly found in Kuching as well since we’re just across the border of Kalimantan, Indonesia. Basically, its white rice with chicken.

I had this dish at petra jaya area, Kuching, somewhere near to the Dewan Bandar Kuching Utara (North City Council) headquater. Its a stall by the malay kampung. A small hut I would say and its painted green as I recalled. The name of hut is R&R if not mistaken.

The chicken is rather “hard” and “chewy” for me to eat. Didn’t quite like it. But the red sauce was volcanic. I was perspiring when I was eating it. Tears, watery nose and sweat came in stimultaneously. It was around RM5.00 if I am not mistaken.
