Hello xD

Hello! Welcome to Sarawak Laksa Love. Despite what the name of this blog suggests, I will not only be talking about Sarawak Laksa but it is the most beautiful heaven in a bowl ever - and my favourite food.

My name is Farah and I am a Sarawakian born and raised in Kuching. After SPM I came to KL to study and eventually work here. I am a retail Executive at Kinokuniya Bookstore, currently in charge of the Travel and Pets sections. Partly because at work I know that there is a severe lack of Kuching-specific travel guides and mostly because I love Kuching and miss it all the time, I thought I should do my part of informing people about my beloved city.

Because I spend more time in KL than in Kuching, the food joints that I normally went too either have already closed down, not as nice anymore, or no longer cool. On Facebook I saw many of my friends eating nice foods that I haven’t tried yet and I asked them where they ate. They are always more than happy to tell me exactly what they ate, and where, and even provided me with the pictures. For that I am eternally grateful. The main purpose of this site is to archive all these food places for my own reference. All of them are halal, but this being Kuching, I will give notice if certain places are mixed halal and non-halal kopitiams. Sarawakian Muslims are very tolerant of eating at these type of mixed restaurants, because we know which stalls are halal. So non-Sarawakians, please take note.

Also, because I also received a lot of queries about Kuching regarding touristy places, I got frustrated that there isn’t a website that has all of my favorite places listed. I shall prioritize free, cheap and convenient places. Mostly places that I would like to visit again. Therefore, I hope this blog will be useful to you as it is to me. If you have any questions or suggestions, you may contact me here. That’s all, and thank you for visiting.
