excitingly Kuching and its culture

Kuching or called Cat City, is a place where I found a little beauty of Malaysia.

It has to be the nature of the city and its rain forest jungles that preserves the pretty of the State and the country.
I was born a Malaysian and I still carry my MyKad and Malaysia passport.
In another word, a Malaysian la...

It was a five days and 6 nights trip counted from the night of Jan 16 until the night of Jan 21.
Well my trip to Kuching only five days and four nights, after all.
So guess where I stay for my first and last night prior to departure from and arrival in Kedah?
The answers were in the bus and on my cousine's rented house sofa.

Anyway, let's talk about the city of cat.
I never been to this city until my boy friend, chin ping, told me he had planned for a business trip to the city.
At first, it's only a thought of seeing him having a date with him in Kuching.
But it turn out to be my backpacking trip in the city.
Why?

Cause I been 'influenced' by the Sarawak Tourism Board (STB) advertisement and promotion of the place.
From STB, I was fascinated by the local attractions and especially food and cultures.
It's totally different from West Malaysia and I had my eyes opened (bigger than gold fish).

There is something that I insisted in this trip.
That's to have a walk by my own around the city.
Why my backpacking wasn't a walk around trip?
Because, a friend of 'him' decided to ride us here and there.

I'm staying in Borneo Hotel during the trip.
It 's only a ** hotel.
Emm...nothing much, not even a satellite tv.
But it's friendly environment somehow made me feel warm.
Also, even the guards and the receptionists remembered our room number and even our friend's 4WD plat number.

I stayed near to waterfront, a town inside Kuching where the people there usually hang out.
I was closed to almost every shopping mall, famous food stall, temples and many more.
However, Cat Museum, Santubong and the Damai beach were a little bit far away.

In this few days, I missed out The Astana, Fort Mageritha, Gading National Park and six more tourist attractions (forgot the name lol).
The food came in big portion and it worth the price.
Hawkers food are cheap and nice (for me), bu the choice for Halal food is limited.

So far, I had eaten Sarawak mouth watering food but I missed out one, sadly to tell that it is rank in the MUST eat list eh....
U know what I missed out?

Sarawak Ko Lo mee, the dish that used to appear in my dream.
Sigh, what am I thinking when I was there?
How can I missed that?
Somebody please courier to me.....
