We tested the depth of H2O past times trying their Sarawak Kolo Mee (Rm 4.80/ Original). No, nosotros did non endeavor the 1 with Char Siew Oil. The master copy 1 filled with the olfactory belongings of Pork Lard in addition to fairly seasoned with flavors; completed with minced Pork, home-made Char Siew (Roasted Pork) in addition to Deep Fried Shallot Oil. The springy in addition to bouncy noodles were given an fifty-fifty toss, non fifty-fifty a unmarried draw of lite Soy Sauce tin live on seen. We empathize that the authentic Sarawak Kolo Mee should live on dry out but nosotros idea it was a niggling also dry out to our liking. The lady boss insisted nosotros had our Kolo Mee with their home-made Vinegared Chilies, which said to innovate a overnice in addition to appetizing acidic disceptation to the noodle dish.
An acquired taste, Ang Chow Mee Sua (Rm 8.80) is non a dish that tin live on easily accepted past times all. The boozy even thence invigorating Foo Chow Red Wine broth was simmered for many hours, to fully accentuate the flavors of the Chicken. The broth was slightly greasing in addition to leaning towards the sweeter side, but it was robust with flavors. As much equally I would dear to get got more, my untrained sense of savour buds forced me to mean value otherwise. As expected, the Mee Sua was cooked to a slouchy texture. No, non that it was incorrect but I prefer my noodles al-dente; I would non social club Mee Sua on a regular basis. My mother, on the other hand, seemed to relish this a lot.
Sarawak Laksa with Vermicelli Noodles (Rm 6.80) stood out with the dishes nosotros ordered. It was creamy, rich in addition to packed with a peppery heat. The add-on of the Chili Paste in addition to Lime Juice introduced around other layered dimension to the dish. The broth has traces of seafood, easily discerned from the seafood sweetness. I would non need heed to come upward dorsum for this again.
