Authentic Kampua Noodle?

Kampua Noodle (Regular) - MYR6.80 nett
The noodle is firm but not springy and is thicker than the thin wanton noodle. According to this review, the kampua taste is authentic.

Bien Nuik - sold out but is this the same as Pian Sip?

Sarawak Gui Chap (Kway Chap - Regular Portion) - MYR7.50 nett

Tau Suan (Mung Bean Sweet Soup with Chinese Crullers aka yau char kwai) - MYR2.50 nett

The founder is from Sarawak and has opened 4 branches of SRK Noodle House to share the food of Sarawak with people in the Klang valley. I will be back to try the Sarawak Laksa and Bian Bian Hu (Ding Bian Hu).

      The man in the signage should be the founder.

    I will not say no to Sarawak noodles, they are simply different and yummy, it would be best to taste the authentic Sarawak noodles in Sarawak.

    Looks very nice - the die-hards would frown on the minced meat topping but my favourite in town has it too. Generally exclusively in Kuching kolo mee only but if it makes something nicer, I am all for it.

    That looks like kueh chap - is it beef? Hence, the name, gui or ngui chap?if the soup is very fragrant, something like bak kut teh soup with a hint of five spice fragrance, then it is good. If it is just like nothing more than soy sauce, then it is not. Also more a Kuching thing, but catching on here - more places selling this now.

    No let tao suan in Sibu, only in Kuching - I guess it is not a Foochow thing. I love it a lot! Been wanting to cook my own but the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak. Sobssss!!!!

    Founder from Miri, eh? Not really a Foochow town but Wong is most likely Foochow. The irony is there are many traditional Foochow delights that have died out here or only some not nice ones are available here but are available there - like the Foochow-style kacang tumbuk, for instance. Maybe, many have moved there - where all the money is...and Kuching...and Kl too. LOL!!!

      Yes, that is kueh chap, they just spell it differently, it is pork. You are right, my spouse told me too that it tastes like bak kut teh soup.

      Noodles basically is made from flour (wheat or rice flour), water and eggs (some with eggs, some without) so what do you think - healthy or not?

    Yes, bien nuik is the same as pian sip or what is similar to wantan here. For me, kampua mee = kolo mee = mee pok....all taste almost similar except noodles differently shaped....hee...hee! :D

    Hmm, looks quite like the one I've eaten in Kuching, so I will trust the authenticity. And the founder history is so detailed, unlike most of those "The founder aspires to change the world, the founder has vision to make kampua become world gourmet food,bla bla bla". Nice!

    Did you like the tau suan? I want to know if it is only me who finds it tastes weird.

      No weird taste for the tau suan. I find it ok, just like any tong sui - it is sweet and has mung beans in it. What did you find weird about it?

    2. CL (RealGunners)November 25, 2015 at 11:14 AM

      I just felt the combination of mung bean soup + yao zhar guai weird hahaha!

    3. munNovember 25, 2015 at 11:13 PM

      Do you eat yao char guai with red bean tong sui or with soya milk then? I feel it is the same because just eat yao char guai with tong sui only mah, hahaha!

      You have been to Sibu to eat kampua so you can also taste, see and tell, right?

  13. Rose worldNovember 24, 2015 at 3:44 PM

    The founder is from Sarawak so I guess it would be as authentic as you could get. I just have kueh chap this morning. Yours look like good as well but my soup was thicker and darker.

    I love to eat Kueh chap and Kampua noodles. I have often wondered where this Kueh Chap originated from?? in 1991, I was shocked to see the shops in Chinatown San Francisco selling instant Kueh Chaps in packets and they were manufactured in Bangkok, Thailand! I bought them to try and it was almost like the original with enough herbs etc. My Thai relatives in SF told me it has long been selling there.

      I also wonder about this. I only knew about kueh chap when I ate them in Singapore in the 1990s.
