Kuching Annual Festival 古晋节 2009

This is Kuching Festival 2009, organized annually starting every August. Has been quite few years I did not visit Kuching Festival, so this time, I am back in town =)

I always love to visit Kuching Festival because there are so many things to see, just name a few and I am sure you can find it here... A lot of businesses are trying to promote their products here because Kuching Festival attracts huge crowds every night...

Food and beverages are always popular here.

You can find all sorts of different and new food around with very reasonable price.




Since when Kuching is popular for 'fried bird'?! Not a nice name though, looks like some sort of foul words...Maybe can give it a try though since there are quite many people queue up for it...

One thing I love about my hometown so much..... pork is everywhere =)

You no need to segregate yourself in an abandoned corner selling pork or eat pork at a separated area in case you contaminate other non-halal food...

So now the 'Imperial Duck' or 'Imperial Soup' is no more halal because the stall is beside the pork stall.......hahahaaaa..

See the Kuching crowds.... this is so called sardine packed... good business huh..

Ohhh yahhh .... we don't hide ourselves too, when we wanna sell beer =)

Drink Carlsberg all you can... in the public... no halal restriction whatsoever...

Gingerbread...!! Something rare locally... worth a try ;)

Oohh.... Spiderman in town!!!! heheheee....

The food here must be delicious...... huge crowds waiting for their food here...

Thai food here...Tomyam....mango rice... looks good... can have a try =)

KFC also wanna participate here in Kuching Festival..

Ohh...KFC selling satay?!

So many choices.... everything looks good.... hard to make a decision..

The Banquet -- this is our newest popular restaurant in town, famous for wedding dinner..

Even the rice is soughted after ?? !

They cook their so called 'beras wangi' on the spot for free sample eating...

Wahhh....2nd hand books also got.... 1-2 bucks you can buy some old books for your reading pleasure..

'Made in Japan' currently very 'hot' item sold in Kuching... even my mum is getting one...

Genuine Green tea anyone???! Come come!! Free sample...

Huhh... 'Renu' also can buy here in Kuching Festival... they are so desperate....

This guy is the owner of this stall I supposed.... he said he wants to be in the photo...

Mmmm... but he has already blocked half of the view...

Wahhh... a huge 'Fa Kuih' ... 1st time see sucha big one... and it is done so perfectly beautiful with the strawberry flavour...

I was about to ask how much is the 'Fa Kuih' when I realized that they are selling the stainless steel steamer...

Lucky.. or else... terribly embarrassed...

Planning to buy a new car?? You can find all local and imported cars here for your pleasure.....

Aouuu... that's so cuteeeee.....

Hooo... Penang Har Mee... Jin Ho Liao!!!! Come come!!!! Try some Har Mee here... !!!!

Taiwanese Tzu Chi Buddhist Association is also here!!!! Goshhh....

Reminder from Tzu Chi:

-- 2 things cannot wait. 1. Be Filial. 2. Kindness Contribution

-- Don't look down on yourself because you can make everything possible.

And I love this one. You will not progress by giving yourself all sorts of lame excuses ..!!

A good night sleep.... I need it badly...

Singapore product.

Said as a product mixed with purple rice and different beans together and can make you very healthy... try some? It's free...

The perfect gorgeous night view of MBKS with the new man-made lake.. glittering of beautiful lights everywhere...
