Curry Rice, Anyone?

It is just a small stall in one of the Kopitiam (coffee shop) here in Miri. But this doesn't stop the stall's proprietor from serving delicious curry rice for its customers.

"Long Xiang Jia Li Fan" (Long Xiang Curry Rice).

Located in Yakin Cafe, this stall's curry rice is one of the best I have tried in Miri.

Two different kind of curry; wet and dry curry.

This stall serves two different kind of curry. The wet curry is normally cooked by the Chinese while the dry curry is normally cooked by the Malay. That's how I would describe the difference between both curry.

Wet curry rice.

I ordered a serve of wet curry rice as usual. Wet curry is always more preferable by me as I can mix the curry with the steam rice.

Two pieces of chicken, egg plant, "foo zuk", potatoes and long beans.

For RM4 a plate, it is actually considered to be quite expensive. However, for this good quality curry, I think it's worth my money.

My baba's Salad Meat Roll Rice (RM2.50) + Curry (RM0.50)

The last time I came here (about 6 months ago), the stall didn't have much choices in it's menu except for the popular curry rice. 6 months later, they have added new menu to the stall. This includes Salad Meat Roll Rice, Lemon Chicken Rice etc..

Give it a try... I'm sure you will like it. :)

P/s: If you are not a HOT curry lover, you will like this stall's curry as it's not that spicy.
P/s/s: Party? Want curry? You can always ask this stall to cater the choices of your preferred curry.

Salad meat ball rice? U mean salad meat is lor bak (halal type?) Lemon chicken rice? Lemon chicken with rice? Are you sure that is chicken curry and not salted fish? Hmmm....never had eggplant, long beans, fu chok in chicken curry before. We usually put potatoes in chicken curry. Miri got some interesting food, hor? Can you teach me how to put the arrows in the pix please? Aiya, u shud study computer engineering insteadlah since you loooooooooove computer.

firehorse: No problem... next time my rent for Fatty Loh's Kopitiam should be free. :P

Wonda: No no. Salad Meat Roll means the meat roll is dipped with mayonaise. Meal roll is minced pork mix with chopped vegie (carrot, "mang guang" etc) and roll it with tofu skin before deep fried. For lemon chicken with rice, it's deep fried chicken with lemon sauce served with steamed rice. Haha! I'm sure that one is chicken curry leh. The chicken curry with potatoes is the dry curry. *actually the wet curry also served with potatoes. I forgot to put in. hehe* Miri got lots of food. I'm always growing sideways when I came back to Miri. hehe. Put the arrows ah? I'm using a photo editting software called Adobe Photoshop. If you have that, then I can teach you. If not, the simplest way to draw arrow is by using Microsoft Paint. Not so pro, but, still can draw. :) Nolah, computer engineering I have thought of it but then computer engineering need lots of programming which I have no idea how to. haha!

Hello Kok,
Long time to come and visit you. Busy, busy, busy...further reasons, read my comment at Firehorse. eh, the dish you trying to explain to Firehorse is called Sayur Pucuk. Betul tak? Over this side of Malaysia, there's a restaurant at Subang near where the old airport used to be, it's called "La La Chong", it serves the best sayur pucuk with the sambal belachan! Aiyoh, I drooling oledi! But of course, those in Sarawak tastes better. I've tried it when I was over there a few years back. Next day must try Kok's mum's cooking!

Kok said...

firehorse: Aiyo, my bad my bad. I thought you want to charge me $ in your kopitiam mah. haha. Thank you thank you! You also don't read or write Mandarin ah? haha! I also don't read or write Mandarin. But I can tell you that your Pinyin is wrong la. Is yi, er, san lah...:P I don't know what song you have in your Kopitiam leh. How about Mei Mei Bei Zhe Yang Wa Wa? hahaha!

ilene: Hello ilene. Lama tidak jumpa! :P Sayur pucuk ah? I don't know if that's the one that is the same as the one I explained leh. The "Meedin" photo can be seen here...

Kok said...

ilene,
Correct ah? It's called sayur pucuk in West M'sia but then, in Miri here, there's another vegie in Chinese we called 'su zhi cai' (Mani Chai). I thought you were referring that one. So I also blur blur. haha! You can go out for supper ma. Mamak?:P Firehorse also always think of eat one. That's why she also has one Kopitiam ma. hahaha! :/ Yea, I study in Perth. Another year to go, hopefully. Cross fingers. :)
