Kongkay1 | December 13th 2007 by kongkay

BREAKFAST @ BESTBERRIES, JALAN PETANAK, KUCHING
Kongkay1 | December 12th 2007 by kongkay
Another place that's got more funk than spunk; but beyond its bold red accent counter's wall, it's more style over substance.The food is just a redressing of old glam food and putting a new twist to it. Taste-wise, it's not frugal on some of the spic read more

DINNER @ MR. HO'S FINE FOODS, CROWN TOWER, KUCHING
Kongkay1 | November 1st 2007 by kongkay
Contrary to its name, the word "Fine" doesn't assuage with the definition of the food served here. This is more of a Deli (picture Selfridge's or David Jones in a smaller scale) than a restaurant; with its limited seating, you'd have thought the dini read more
