You've spoken, "Kuching is better"

Dear friends,
You have spoken! Kuching is better than Miri. Let me offer my humble opinion why it is so. If you were to ask me, I would honestly think that Miri is a more livable city, but... I hazard to guess that most voters are from Kuching and hence, nothing beats your own HOMETOWN, not even the best cities in the whole wide world. So you have it...

See you next time,

A small poll for lovely cities

Dear Friends,
How'd life treating you lately in a foreign land? As with all things in life, some of you would have achieved many goals that you set out to achieve and some are still work-in-progress. I hope all of you will perservere and achieve greatness in life.

Maybe we should do a small survey. How about comparing Kuching and Miri? Many factors will come into play in our considerations, but lets just say, "I like Kuching better than Miri". Lets vote.

See you again friends,
SL

Top 10 List, Miri

Dear Friends,

I am not a gourmet aficionado. I am just a salaried man, trying to make ends meet, but have to eat outside all the times as I am away from my family. Many of you and I are trying to ‘eat to live’. But we prefer something that is ‘cheap, fresh and big in size’ After all, we must enjoy our food bah. Not so easy to please (who says you can please humans!!). One of the criteria that I use to compile the list is that I have eaten at these places for at least three times. Anyway, let us get on with the first-cut list in Miri (not in order of merit).

1) Hopoh Café – Kueh Chap/Chicken Curry Rice
2) Hong Kong Duck, Boulevard – Roasted Meat
3) Good Taste, Pujut 5 – Asam Curry Head
4) Meng Chai Café, Jln Merbau
5) Muara Café – Nasi Lalapan
6) Ten Mile Bak Kut Teh
7) Twin Star, Pelita
8) Wan Sin Café, Miri Waterfront
9) Wooden Shed, Pujut 2 behind Sesco – Fried Spring Chicken
10) WZT Café – Kueh Chap

Pls leave a comment and feel free to criticize my list left, right and centre.
