Things that surprise me is that comparing with Kuching, Sarikei's so much smaller in terms of geo coverage, population n much more.. But just look how clean, dry, tidy n organized this place is... its not really a "wet" market as there's not much water on the floor...
i notice that each and every of the seller has their on NAME TAG! Does your local seller at wet market wears NAME TAG??? I don't see any in Kuching though! they look so pro hahaha
Okay so what's really cool over there?
I'm sure most of chinese have heard of 纸包鸡 (Chicken wraped in paper n boiled) rite? Sarikei have a very different kind of 纸包鸡---> check this out!
Yup! Chicken Being wrapped in newspaper ALIVE!!! these poor chicken's waiting for buyer to bring them home and end their life in human's tummy... poor chickenAnyone have ever notice what brand of handbag wild vege's seller use?
Well look what did Sarikei's midin seller use---> Spotted Yet?? Doesn't it look like Roxy??
Oh here goes another poor animal... 水鱼 (a type of turtle i think) also waiting to be brought hum n.... well u noe wud's gonna happen...Okay Enuf for these poor little creatures... Moving on and we came across fresh Basil Longan.. Actually i almost had opportunity to try out these fresh juisy n sweet longan back in kch but then missed the opportunity.. but hey! i tried! and its quite nice with a bit more buttery taste..
Its quite a small market so after 1 round at the market we make our walk to nearby coffee shop which dear's Aunt use to have her morning tea there. 21 CAFE
I had KOPI-O as usual to start my day and it taste so much "Kao" n the fragrance instantly find its way to ignite me once it reaches our table...Aunt Hua ordered Toasted butter n Kaya Bun for us to share.
Well it looks like ordinary seaseme seed bun toasted with kaya n butter.. well technically yes it is something like that but when u sink your teeth into it, *the BEST part comes* crunchiness of the outer layer and the softness inside with the kaya and butter wusses out into your mouth.... MMmmmm~~ u HAVE to try it for your own to believe what i say...
After the delicious and satisfying breakfast we walk across the street *yup almost everywhere's wihtin walking distance here* to the Gong Pia Making Bakery (a kind of foochow traditional bun)
And this is how they make it: Neat>Press>sesame sprinkle>stick it on the inner wall of the "barrel" like oven> wait for a while> and its done
After that We walk just few steps over to the dry market to get some of our child time junkfood
Dear with her "long-time-no-see" Cigerate candy LOL
Bubble gum maker which dear'd used to make me duckies * but i think duckie's dead*
Coming up next: Sarikei - Sibu - Sarikei (day 2/3) Afternoon @ Sibu
