Kuching Delicacies You Don't Find Elsewhere

Posted by mrdefinite.com | 4:59 AM

Kaninei… Cannot make pizza today. Bought all the ingredients but forgot the most essential pizza crusts! Went to various supermarkets to buy yet they didn’t sell any.

Why, out of a sudden Kuchingnites are so rich to homemake pizzas that pizza crusts run out of stock issit?

Ended up making Kueh Momo instead.

No lah, just saying. I didn’t make those. My mom did. It’s funny you don’t find Kueh Momo in the Peninsular. Why so pathetically one ar those who stay in Peninsular who don’t have good food to eat?

In Kuching we have all Asam, Curry and Sarawak Laksas but in KL, you only get to eat the very typical Asam Laksa.


I know some get to eat Sarawak Laksa in certain places like Sunway but hack, my sister cooks better Laksa than that without being ahmazingly overpriced.

In Kuching you also get to eat chicken slow-cooked with wine and marijuana plant called Ka Cang Ma, but when you ask any kina in KL, they go like ” huh??”

You also don’t get to eat the Belacan Behoon anywhere else. OMG, I’m back and haven’t had the chance to taste it yet!

I’ve been to KL for three years and haven’t seen any stalls selling the Tomato Kueh Tiaw yet. A search on the net confirms the truth, that the Peninsular indeed doesn’t really sell any.


Words have it that my favourite dish Kueh Chap can be found in Johore (and the overhyped “food paradise” a.k.a. Penang?), but I certainly can’t find it in the hustle and bustle of KL city.


My favourite parts of Kueh Chap are the spare parts of the pigs!

Grease is Bliss: Seng Kee's Claypot "Lou Shu Fan"

Posted by mrdefinite.com | 2:27 AM

Revisited Seng Kee restaurant in Jalan Sultan / Petaling Street (near Swiss Inn) for its famous claypot lou shu fan. It operates daily from evening till midnight, making it a great place for dinner and supper.


Seng Kee's lou shu fan comes with minced meat and a raw egg. Make sure to give it a stir so that the raw egg is evenly distributed.


It might look greasy but that is what makes it savory. Which (fried) Chinese dish nowadays isn't greasy?!


The chilli-sambal is, of course, one of Seng Kee's trademarks. It intensifies the taste of lou shu fan yet not too spicy. The absence of this chilli-sambal really cannot do justice to its scrumptiousness lor!


As for drink, you could try their non-processed, self-made liong cha (herbal tea), which costs only RM1 to drive the intrinsic heat out your body.


A must-try! So far I haven't found any claypot lou shu fan tastier than Seng Kee's yet. Perhaps you could introduce?

AND AND AND I just wanna clarify that I don't get paid whatsoever for promoting any food in this blog, unless otherwise specified.
