Kopi "O" Peng - Price in Kuching

Since my computer hangs now, so, take this chance and write about something that makes me wonder. Have anyone realize that some coffee shop is charging this drink at a very unreasonable price?

Let me elaborate. Kopi "O" Peng suppose to be very cheap and low cost compared to other drinks except for chinese tea and sky juice. Let me list out the price that I know in some of the coffee shop in Kuching:

Hiang Mon Low, BDC - RM1.50
A1B2, BDC - RM1.00
King Centre - RM1.10
Foody Goodies - RM1.50
Samajaya Food Court - RM1.50

Some other places are selling it up to RM1.80!! Why is it that there is not control on price for drinks?? Especially for drinks like kopi 'o', kopi, teh 'o', teh 'c', teh.... All this are very cheap but the selling price is so expensive! I'm ok if the price is RM1.00 or RM1.10 but to drink kopi 'o' that cost more than that seems ridiculous. Did they use a better coffee or still the cheap coffee? I doubt that the coffee is much expensive one since the taste is almost the same and sometimes, no taste at all. Of all, I like A1B2 drinks. It taste nice.

While googling for news about 'malichai', it turns out that I hardly get anything that I am looking for, so this triggers me to write something about this local vegetables that I believe, can only be found in Sarawak. 'Mali chai' is easily planted and grow quite fast as well. In fact, this is the only vegetables that I planted and it didn't fail on me! With its stick, just plant it on the ground and leave the rain and sun to takes care of the rest. Hahaha... 'Mali chai' is a word in hokkien that mostly use in Kuching. 'Chai' means vegetables. Hakka people called it 'su choi'. Well, this vege doesn't seems to have an English name. If we are to translate from BM to English, it definitely sounds weird - Sweet Hook. I think anyone who hear 'sweet hook' will not be keen to try it out.. So, how do 'mali chai' looks like? I've snap the photos of this vegetables at my garden. Actually, I've just harvest the vegetables few ...

Cozy Cafe, Jalan Song

Feeling hungry for something different on lunch time? Another place you can think of will be this restaurant - The Cozy Cafe. It is opposite One TJ with a black signboard. The environment is indeed cozy and warmth. Taste wise not bad but I can say that the service is a little weird. We order tea and they only permitted to give us 2 cup. Hhmmmm, I thought that we can just ask them to refill the pot wit hot water and share the tea amongst us. Guess this is how they earn more - limiting the number of sharing per tea pot. Oh well, got to just follow their rules. And this is what we ordered - sharing portion between a few of us. After all, ladies are small eaters. Mushroom soup with garlic bread Fish and chips Spaghetti Carbonara with hot dogs  Enjoy your lunch yea...

Have anyone been to this place? I actually asked SK to help in translating them into English. According to her 'xiao' refers to small while 'ba wang' is gangster. Hhmmmm.... It is located right opposite the Stutong Market. BF say this is second branch. For me, this is the first time I saw it. This is a good place for 'pao' lovers to have their breakfast. BF and I went there once for breakfast since it's on the way to our workplace. First impression - I like it here. Not much traffics and the place is clean. Second impression - what happen to the day dreaming waitresses?? I want to take my order! Third impression - do they know that we are waiting? The food is nice. For BF, it is superb. He has been eating 'pao' for breakfast for almost everyday. Well maybe like what he say, for me everything is the same. But I must say the dim sum is nice. Anyway, I think they should really improve the workers efficiency. The other day, BF forgotten whether he had ...
