Sarawak Laksa @ 98 Kopitiam, Tabuan Jaya Baru

by FH2o on August 8, 2008

My latest Sarawak Laksa discovery in Kuching @ 98 Kopitiam, Tabuan Jaya Baru. Yummy!

I do love my laksa (amongst other things), so when a friend alerted me to this new Sarawak Laksa stall which he claims is comparable to my favourite laksa stall at Chong Choon, Abell Road; I immediately arrange to meet up with him to have lunch there.

Let me cut to the chase – its bloody good! And it’s a bargain too at RM3.50 with generous servings of prawns and the all important gravy. Sure the “bee-hoon” (rice vermicelli) was slightly overcooked (too soft) and they had just run out of coriander which to a true Sarawak Laksa connoisseur is a must-have garnishing.

I think their business can only get better with the eagerly awaited (by all Kuching IT geeks) opening of OneTJ ICT, Kuching’s equivalent of KL’s Low Yat Plaza for all things IT, in October 2008 which is just next door.

And as if it’s an omen of more good Sarawak Laksa discoveries to come; I woke up the next day to a brilliant ‘Sarawak Laksa’ coloured sky the next morning! Here’s wishing that great discoveries awaits you this weekend. Whatever.
