On Location!!! - Kuching - Nameless Stall @ Padungan

Hi! I am BKT King. Have taken BabeKL's advice and started posting as individuals. On behalf of all of us at Makan Kings, sorry for the non-updating. This is an old post from my visit to Kuching. This little stall serves good food but I understand that its opening hours are quite erratic.

Ordered their special drink called "Hai Chao Ping". Its a deliciously sweet drink full of seaweed(the agar-agar variety), dried longans and other stuff. The bottom picture shows the seaweed.

The first of the food to arrive was tomato noodles. This dish is a Kuching specialty. It is fried noodles with tomato gravy. Its not something I would go out and try again in hurry but its probably because I dont like tomato sauce.

Next came the tom yam noodles. Now this was really really good. It had a powerful spicy kick to it. It was full of little shrimp, fish balls, meat balls and had two deep fried fish fillet sitting on top of the whole dish.

Next to come was a Foochow dish, "Cha Chu Mee". It roughtly translate to fried, braised noodles. It just means that this dish of fried noodles comes with some gravy. Another nice dish but after the kick of the tom yam noodles, it did seem abit bland.

Makan Kings ratings = 6 out of 10

  5. anonymous - It is next to the recond car showroom in Padungan. The showroom used to be called greenshop. Its closer to the HSBC roundabout end of Padungan.

    soowm - Hey! Bangkok posting will commence soon I hope. The other Makan King who's doing it has some computer problems at the moment.

    Ruby - Yeap! Balakong was a complete failure yesterday. Will make it up to the readers.

    Cheers
