Chong Choon Cafe (泉春茶室)

They say you haven't visited Kuching if you haven't been to Chong Choon Cafe. So we made it our first stop!

It wasn't as gooood as it was supposed to be?

Noodles were definitely springy, but they really serve A LOT of noodles in that tiny bowl. Besides the infamous curly kolo mee, the main lead has always been the fried shallots and oil which is mixed within the noodles and ingredients to give that kick in your mouth and that separates each strand of the noodles.

Do try their special (RM$4.50/5.50)! Probably more ingredients and larger portion of noodles.

Beside kolo mee, the Sarawak laksa also something you can’t leave without. Chong Choon Cafe open from early 6:30am and do come early to avoid the large crowd of people coming here for breakfast. RM7

Sarawak laksa is a Sarawakian noodle dish consisting of bee hoon (rice vermicelli) served in a sambal coconut broth made with tamarind, lemongrass, galangal, served with shredded chicken, prawns, beansprouts, shredded omelette, with a side of sambal and lime.

The Sarawak laksa here is served with a medium to fine rice vermicelli noodle, with quite a light broth with a more pronounced prawn stock. Chicken pieces were tender, and prawns were bigger than expected. The broth here is more typical of the Chinese Sarawak laksa which tends to be lighter and is less lemak (uses less coconut milk). The notable missing component here is the shredded omelette, but the size of the prawns make up for it. You can see why this place is constantly argued as one of the best Sarawak laksa in Kuching.

Awesome laksa! Throw away any connotation of laksa you have and try this with an open mind. The soup base taste like spicy herbal prawn soup. Went very well with the vermicelli :D

Chong Choon Cafe, Jalan Abell. Small RM$3.00. Light yellow noodles, minced meat, juicy roast meat slices (char siew). Light, tasty noodles with a hint of sourishness.

Kuching laksa is still unique which is totally different from singapore. Their laksa is slightly spicy and sour serve with prawns, bean sprout and chicken. 😍
