Operafest.


an internationally known children's choir from west Malaysia has stepped foot and performed in Kuching on the 5th of December. The venue chosen for their maiden performance in Kuching was St. Thomas Cathedral. It was a wise choice to have it organised in this cathedral as the architectural structure of this cathedral resembles the old cathedrals in Europe which produces great vibrations of sound throughout the whole space.



the kids performing in front of the crowds.

their voices were beautiful and if i would close my eyes enjoying the harmonious sound, I would mistaken myself that i'm in heaven but that wouldn't happen because during the first half of their performance was being aggravate by the drilling noises produced by the construction works in Merdeka Plaza.



















playing simple plots while singing 'Onward Christian Soldiers'











and after their performance, the kids will start to ramble around searching for their relatives or friends to buy their cd.



was trying to take a pic of the cute girl but unfortunately she turned away from the lens...

Operafest CDs sold for RM30 each...








wonder how their voices sound like? here's a sample...


and surprisingly, their conductor can sing as well. Not just an average type of singing but soprano!

finally.. the continuation of the first part(though it has been more than 2 months).. pardon me...

here goes...


this chicken rice is dubbed as the best chicken rice you can get in penang as the complementary soup that it comes with is not an ordinary chicken soup. It has a sour yet spicy taste just like tom-yum but doesn't taste like tom-yum. The shop is located somewhere near Kek-Lok-Si temple and as i know it was just opposite a bus stop.

LAM FATT....

next on...

this bowl of ice looks like the average ice kacang every kuchingnites can get at Chung hua Primary school no.3. The ingredients maybe below average but the taste is far better than average. It's called 'ai yu bing'. taste great but the surrounding ain't that great.


not much can be seen from this angle. This stall is located somewhere near the clan jetties area or in other word is that opposite of this stall is the clan jetties( but i don't know which clan).

moving on,















this dish is called 'bak kin'.
















and no idea for this one....
This shop is hiding somewhere near the clan jetties as well if my memory serve me right and all i can recall was that this shop is located opposite a POSLAJU.

not forgetting penang's most infamous dish,















the legendary.... ASAM LAKSA....
located at penang road. As a complementary, there's penang's famous chendol stall just outside the shop selling the asam laksa.















chendol.... too sweet for me.















and just a few walks after the chendol stall, you can find a stall selling the local rojak.















i still prefer kuching rojak...hehe

and not to missed out... another infamous dish from penang, the har mee (prawn noodles). they add in 2 types of noodles ( thick one and bee hoon). The taste is just so appetizing.















and that wraps up my journal....
