Before it ends


Not far from where I stay, there is this Borneo Food Festival. It started end of last month and today is the last day. 
 


So before it ends, together with my mil and three kids, we dropped by yesterday evening. Checking out the stalls and buying our dinner home. 


Not as packed as previous weeks. And not all stalls were opened but at least we managed to get what we wanted. 

They have some grilled stalls, fried snacks stalls, Asian cuisine and drinks stands. 

This braised pork stew stall attracted me. I bought one tub of pork belly stew for over RM65!! Tasted alright, broth not that strong. 


My kids's favourite stall!! Potato chip sticks. Each have one stick and each with their preferred flavour. Super crunchy chips. 

My preferred snack was Taiwan sausage, and I tasted out this stall. RM10 for 3 sticks. No, I tasted one only, the other 2 went to my 2 eldest kids. We enjoyed it while browsing through the stalls. 



Mostly grill stalls so you will expect we come out with those smoky smell from the food fair. We spent about 30 minutes browsing through the stalls. We didn't wanted to enjoy the food there although few vacant tables. Much prefer to buy and bring home to enjoy in the comfort of our home, away from the smoke, smell and crowds. 



Some food that we bought includes the crispy oyster pancakes. RM20 and it was yummy and crispy. 


The kids opted for burgers  for dinner. One chose mayo as their sauce base while the other went for "hitam manis" (sweet sauce). 


The pork belly stew that I bought for sharing with my mil. We had it again this evening as both of us can't finish it all. 


My mil took fried lou shu fen (silver needle noodle) with the stew pork. RM5 for the fried noodle.

  7. I didn't get the chance to go, but that's okay. I already went to the Gawai Bazaar, and most of it is similar, I think.
