The Indians have their curries, the Thais have Tom Yum, the Pommies have Fish and Chips.
We Kuching people have KOLO MEE!
Yes, the legendary kolo mee. People have tried to imitate kolo mee outside of Kuching - heard about one in Singapore and I think there's one in Adelaide - but never have they suceeded, ever.Strictly non-halal, pork both of the thinly-sliced barbecued and minced variety decorate the dish. Fresh noodles are boiled for a very short amount of time (hence the wonderful springy texture) and doused in pork lard, shallots and whatever magic stuff they put in there that makes us all addicted to this dish. Add some pepper, a dash of spring onions and kolo mee is ready to be served with a side garnish of fresh chilli in vinegar.
*slurp* Pure heaven.
Angels sing for kolo mee. Trust me. :P
