Kuching Food Hunt – FooChow Fried Noodles, Sarawak Laksa, Belacan Beehoon, White Lady, Kueh Chiap, Tomato Mee

Here’s picture post of what I ate in Kuching in 10 hours!

All thanks to our local guide Jun Fook, who really knew where the best eats are! And I really appreciate his patience in taking us to all these place of Kuching as some of these places are actually out of the city centre and not all of them listed below are necessarily convenient.

    Haha….I went to the same No. 25 Bukit Mata Seafood Centre @ Top Spot also during my Kuching trip….haha =)

    1. rebeccasaw

      Hahah it’s a picture post for now. Got to update quick before more work hits in and I’ll not be able to post at all!

  4. Yee Ling

    OMG….Luckily I came here with a full stomach.LOL **anyway still sulking**

    1. rebeccasaw

      Hehehe! Food in abundance in Kuching for sure!

  5. Sean

    ooo, i think i’d like the Foo Chow Kom Pia, since it looks quite creamy and meaty. i might be able to eat half a dozen of those! 😀

    1. rebeccasaw

      Oh yes, it’s just like “ham chin Peng” actually.. with the aroma nuttiness from the sesame seeds. Texture-wise it’s chewy like baguette!

    2. melissa steele

      one of my favourite…….

  6. suituapui

    Gosh!!! Haven’t been to MOST of the places you went to. Been to Golden Arch for the laksa – many people’s favourite but just as many will tell you it is the best in town…and I’ve been to Topspot…and Lau Eya Keng at Carpenter Street. That’s about it…

    P.S. Nice red pants, JFook!!! LOL!!!

      1. suituapui

        Ah yes! I went for that Green Road kolo mee too… One of the better ones around…

      2. rebeccasaw

        I find it too sweet. Maybe should have ordered the “normal” one.
        But noodles wise it was good for sure!

    1. rebeccasaw

      I dont know why people like that laksa. I didn’t like it. Very much on the coconut milk but no spice taste. Yup, NOT the best as far as Im concerned
      Oh I’m envious- i love the Carpenter St satay!!!
      Top spot kuching is so good for its seafood!

  7. nikel

    superlike this post.. traditional food!

    1. rebeccasaw

      Heheh! Kuching has many food special to this city. I’m so bored of Melaka, Ipoh and Penang food already!

  8. yanmie

    Wowww ok lapar terus tengok gambar2 ni 🙂

    1. rebeccasaw

      Yea, better than Ramadhan buffet I tell you! 😀

  9. hildamilda

    You guys had these all in one day? WOW! That’s quite a lot 😀

    1. rebeccasaw

      Between 1030am to 10pm!
      Hahaha.. we were stuffed and I could barely sit after that!

  10. rayyan haries

    Rebecca, u ate all that? OMG!! plus all the food reminds me of my time backpacking in sarawak!

    1. rebeccasaw

      Hahah yes ate all that!
      Kuching has many great food that’s uniquely Kuching. Such a foodie heaven!

  11. kevin

    Amazing stuff becky! Keep them coming! 🙂

    1. rebeccasaw

      Thanks kevin! Hehhehe! Remember to join me next time for food hunts in KL alright! Too bad this time you were in Seoul!

  12. Well it looks like you hit all the famous spots. I’m sure you realize that famous doesn’t necessarily mean best, though. Like that Green Road kolo mee – everyone says it’s the best but I find it to be too oily. And everyone has a different opinion about whether Golden Arch laksa is the best. I like it but not as much as other places.

    Thanks for the great post.

    1. rebeccasaw

      Oh, the post is not done, haven’t actually added my comments on the food.
      But I agree, I didn’t like both the kolo mee (too oily + SWEET – euuww) and the laksa lacked oophmmm for me.
      Frankly, famous almost means NOT the best. Same for Penang food (I’m a Penangite)

  13. Suke

    May I know how to go to the residence area in stunting baru there???? I’m craving for the tomato wantan there :(….

  14. Jimoh

    Being a Kuchingite / Kuchingian… hahahaha… wanted to say the places you went to are the typical places people would go. I’m not saying they’re overrated but there are many more hidden gems in Kuching. There’s the legendary Kueh Chap at 7th Mile nite market stall 99 with Garfield picture. There’s the marvelous tomato fried noodles also at 7th Mile next to winsome bookstore. There’s the beautiful kolo mee served at an isolated house / eatery along Jalan Stephen Yong which goes by the name KFC (Kim Foo Cafe). Try the laksa at a shop adjacent to NIIT college somewhere along Jalan Ahmad Zaidi Adruce. Pork noodle soup at Noodle Descendant. Fried chicken somewhere opposite the pork satay outlet. I’m drooling…. I need to go back to Kuching.
