I merely bought only a little bar of chocolate. But D bought some household items - floor mats and towels and light bulbs. And then for the amount that he spent, he received a free gift and a lucky draw entry. He could redeem either a cup or a dustbin .... so I wanted a dustbin. D indulged me and gave me the free dustbin. Yay. It was just what I needed.
I'd recently shifted to a vacant workstation the back of the staffroom in my school, where it was more private and I had more space, and I had wanted a dustbin near me. So well, the gift came in timely, and useful too!
As we exited the mall building, there's a food court right across the road .... and we had our lunch there. D had rice with roasted meats .... while I opted to have kueh chap.
Kueh Chap, RM5.00
As for EG Mall, I guess it would be alright to visit once in a while,
Ah yes .. that kueh chap. I was only there last month & the stall operator said same as Lau Ya Keng kueh chap. I don't know but somehow it doesn't taste as good though.
ReplyDeleteHi Jonsey. I'm not much of an expert in kueh chap and I have yet tried the Lau Ya Keng version. That one's nicer to you?
ReplyDeleteThe Lau Ya Keng kueh chap is one of the better ones in Kuching but my favourite though is the Bintawa kueh chap at Jln Keranji Tabuan Jaya. It's only open in the evening which is inconvenient for me since I like my kueh chap for breakfast. The Lau Ya Keng one is located near my workplace hence I'm a frequent patron there.
ReplyDeleteThe King Centre kueh chap broth is too diluted for my taste while the ingredients are fine. But to be fair I tried only once so maybe I shouldn't judge too harshly. Might give it another go if I'm in the vicinity.
Hi Jonsey, I'm not really a kueh chap person, though I agree that a good kueh chap can be addictive. I've not tried the one at Lau Ya Keng because whenever I am there, I tend to eat the fishballs vermicelli noodles and the satay. Haha .... I really must try the other stuff there. And yes, I've heard of the infamous Bintawa Kueh Chap but have yet to try it as well. Evenings are also not really convenient a time for me. But .... I must make it a point to visit soon!
