While we were here

Last Saturday morning, we went to Khoo Hun Yeang street for breakfast. Long long time did not come to this part of the city, where the old blend with the modern times. Old colonial buildings still standing strong and old coffee shops still around amidst the new structures and developments mushrooming in the old town.

We had our breakfast in Rooyi Cafe, one of the old coffee shops in Khoo Hun Yeang street.  Of course it has been renovated and look new after all these years.  I have been there few times when hubby worked somewhere there few years ago. 

First time for the kids. We ordered kolo mee (RM3.00) for each of them. Looked good. They said it was nice and they liked it.


This special bowl of Sarawak laksa (RM7.00) was for me. Tasted good but not much laksa paste for me. I would like it to be more fragrant and spicier.


Hubby has this kueh chap cheng for RM6.00 to go with his kolo mee. Nice in my own opinion.  Many goodness in the sweet broth, no wonder he enjoyed it very much.


After the breakfast, we made a stop in hubby's office.  Spent our morning there.  The kids made themselves entertained in hubby's new office.

Playing word search but they looked so professional sitting on those chairs!

Waiting patiently for daddy

For lunch, hubby walked to the exclusive and grand Plaza Merdeka for the newly opened franchise outlet, Burger King.

Hubby queued for almost an hour for the order, thankfully me and kids waited for him in the comfort of his office. Yes, Whopper for me and chicken burgers for the kids.


It has been a long time since I tasted Whopper. I finished up the whole burger and was full!! Did not like the fries as they were cold and soggy by then. 


When asked my girl, she said it was good but she still prefer the burger from another international franchise. I had to agree with her in that.

Haiyor!!!! Queue for one hour!!! Even if free, I would not want to do that, thank you very much. I saw on Facebook somebody stood there at 1.30 a.m. - wanted to be the first as soon as it opened. So crazy!

I'd much rather go and eat the very nice looking kolo mee and laksa and any of the many many nice things to enjoy in Kuching...anytime! Now, where is Khoo Hun Yeang, can't remember now. Never mind...I go google.

P.S.
Burger King, I think only the swiss mushroom with cheese burger is nice - dunno got in Kuching outlet or not. The rest, just so so...same as any other, more or less. BUT it is at least twice the price of that special laksa you had. I'd have the laksa, please...two bowls! LOL!!!

Wow! Your RM 7 Sarawak laksa has HUGE prawns. Ours somehow isn't as big but I notice in general that Kuching has bigger and better prawns for some reason. It's cheaper too, especially in Sarawak laksa - remember Golden Arch used to serve huge prawns with their RM 5 (at the time) Sarawak laksa.
