On 2nd morning in Kapit, we went to this coffee shop for breakfast.
I liked the look of it. A little, old corner shop with vibrant colour. Kong Hua Cafe was the name of this shop.
While waiting for our food, I took shots of the stuff in the shop.
One part of the shop
One big boiling pot
Old switch board
Cupboard
On the table
Don't you feel like you are back to the past?? Feel like the time has stopped and everything remaining the same in the past.
Hubby insisted me to try their toast so we ordered a set to try.
Their kampua was finally here. Black soy for hubby while the others had the plain kampua.
As for me, I tried their version of Sarawak laksa. A very unusual for me as they added innard in it. The broth wasn't the typical Sarawak laksa; more of the laksa curry to me.
Did I enjoy it?? Not really. Not the typical Sarawak laksa. Even the broth tasted different. Well, at least I got to taste Sarawak laksa in Kapit this round. Better have a round of Sarawak laksa in Kuching soon to satisfy my craving.
It seems to be the trend here now - liver, intestines in Sarawak laksa. What an insult! I would never order that to eat - there is a time and place for everything, no need to spoil it.
ReplyDeleteIn the old days, they would have hardboiled eggs and pulut panggang at every table and old school cup cakes too - did you try the ones at Ung Tong? So so so so so good, even Mita's famous butter cake would have to take a back seat!!!
They do look like the 4 on the table. Did you try them?

No. No one touched them.
Deletethe old switch board is really antique...but it's scary coz I m afraid of short circuit...LOL! I dislike innards...most of the time I will request to omit them if I m aware that the seller would put them into my noodles.
ReplyDeleteNice food adventure in a new place... if we dont try, we dont know what is nice and which is not... I like peanut with kaya too..
ReplyDeleteThe interior of the shop is really old type of decor. Reminds me of my grandparent's time. I must try kaya and peanut butter!
ReplyDeleteI too will be taking snapshots if I were there. Kaya and peanut toast sounds yummy. I like curries but not with innards.
ReplyDeleteWhat innards did they add to the laksa?
ReplyDeletePig's blood, liver.
DeleteOh so interesting place indeed

omom dear so wonderful place:) and i like those menu:D omomm:) follow;) hope U follow back:)
ReplyDeleteThis shop reminds me of my maternal grandparent's kopitiam - boiling pot, old switch board and even the cupboard. Unfortunately, they decided to close down and moved out to Kuching city to stay with my uncle.
ReplyDeleteI miss kampua so much. It's hard to find a good one in KK.
I love to walk inside old coffee shops like this. Nostalgic and sentimental places to transport me back to the past.
ReplyDeleteInnards in curry is unusual. For kampua noodles, I would go for the original and plain one too.
