Ayam Tulang Lunak

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Ayam Tulang Lunak

If not mistaken, Ayam Tulang Lunak is a rather new eatery in Kuching. Located as Wisma Ho Ho Lim.

Very easy to locate, same row as Air Asia office.


Left: Ayam Bakar (RM8)
Right: Ayam Penyet (RM8.50)

Overall, maybe it’s just me. I’m disappointed again in terms of taste and presentation. However, the place is quite clean.

Oh why oh why? How come almost all of the new eateries these days lack in these aspects? Even people like me who are rather easy going and do not ask for too much can have such impression, then it would be even worst with those critical people that fuss about even the smallest details.

Anyway, hopefully these new eateries can improve or risk closing down in no time!

Back to Adelaide Tomorrow

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Back to Adelaide Tomorrow

Today, did my IELTS, messed up my writing and speaking test ;p

Today, finally I can relax but it’s my last day in Kuching.

Tomorrow evening, I’m going to fly back to Adelaide. Hopefully, my hay fever won’t be so bad by then. I’ve been suffering from non-stop sneezing since a month ago! So suffering. Did not subside in Kuching, instead it continues until now because of the pollution.

Now, I feel a bit sick, having slight sore throat.

Will be back updating in Adelaide in few days time!

See you all then!

Gourmet Sausage

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Gourmet Sausage

I’ve been seeing my friends going to Gourmet Sausage (1st floor, Sublot 10, L12161, Song Plaza, Jalan Tun Jugah, Jalan Song,) in FB. Finally, I got to go there and try it out.

Left: The interior. It’s rather dark but I found it a great place to hang out as it’s quite spacious.
Right: Fish on Fire (RM14.90, it’s the special of the day). It’s fish fillet with vegetables and mashed potato. Quite a filling dish.


Left: Mix-Dog (RM15.90), combination of pork Thueringer, chili, and cheese sausages served with coleslaw and fries.
Right: Chicken on Fire (RM14.90), fire grilled chicken breast drizzled with black pepper or mushroom gravy. For ours, we went for mushroom. There’s also mashed pototo and vegetables. It’s rather huge too.

All in all, taste wasn’t not so bad and price was acceptable. Go back? Maybe, for the sake of hanging out with friends. As usual, I don’t usually go to the same place over and over again unless people want to go there.

Lao Zhi Hao Bak Kut Teh & Bun Hock Kitchen

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Lao Zhi Hao Bak Kut Teh & Bun Hock Kitchen

My firts meal in Kuching, lunch at Lao Zhi Hao Bak Kut Teh located near OneTJ.

Left: Dry bak kut teh (RM10 – small)
Right: The normal bak kut teh (RM10 – small)
Overall… Portion rather small, didn’t expect this small for small *LOL* Taste wise, it didn’t blow me away, just so-so.

The, few days later, we went to Bun Hock Kitchen at Song Thian Chiok Road located at the same section of Jade Pot Tea for dinner.

Left: Tomato crispy mee (RM5), the gravy is very sweet.
Middle: Oat chicken with Rice (RM5.50), was expeting it to have some sauce or something instead it was just dry. It’s pretty hard to eat. The more I ate, the sweeter it got. If the rice came with a bowl of soup, then it won’t be so hard to eat.
Right: Beancurd with minced meat with rice (RM5.50), hmmm… I tried a bit, the taste just didn’t register. I don’t know how to say *LOL*
My verdict? I won’t go back again. Presentation was a pity, food tasted below average. Really not my cup of tea. Well… Maybe it’s yours.

On the Way Home…

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on On the Way Home…

After more than 1 1/2 year in Adelaide, finally I flew home last Monday evening. Arrived Kuching last Tuesday morning. Time for me to go back to Adelaide soon! Next Sunday! That’s just so crazy! Don’t even get to enjoy my holiday to the fullest.


On the plane, heading to Singapore. So glad that it’s not a full flight and I got the whole row for myself and it’s a window seat too! Was supposed to revise my IELTS reading but ended up watching 3 movies!


Dinner on board. I had panfried chicken in basil cream sauce, buttered vegetables, and roasted potatoes. As for dessert, we were served with ice cream.


Refreshment, it was some-kind-of pie. Can’t remember the exact name hahaha…


Arrived Singapore at 11pm and headed straight to Traders Hotel at Orchard Road to spend a night, only spent about 6 hours there as I need to get to the airport the next day before 8am and beat the traffic jam.


It was my very first time staying in such luxurious hotel. Thanks to someone who redeemed this room with his points for me. It’s a deluxe room with king-sized bed but it’s actually two beds combined. So couldn’t sleep in middle with the spacing there.


I stayed at the 11th floor. Nice swimming pool down there!


Bathroom with so many mirrors! Camwhored! Was rather tired.

There was a miscommunication between the staff and me when I check-in. I double-checked with her when she mentioned about breakfast as far as I know it’s not included. She might have thought that I have their VIP card and told me that the breakfast was included. That morning, I just simply went down to grab some bites and headed back to my room to get my stuff to check-out. Lo and behold! I was charged SGD30+ for the breakfast. -.-” Had to pay for it of course. The most expensive breakfast I had in my life! Oh well… It’s all right, treat it as staying there for only SGD30+/night instead of hundreds of dollars. I was also paying it with my Aussie card, at least not that bad.


On the way home! First time on SilkAir. Unfortunately, the flight was rather full. Luckily it’s not a long flight. The breakfast I had was char siew chicken wrap. Taste? Not my kind of tea LOL.

There you go… My journey home. Now, I’m leaving again soon! Too fast!
