People in Kuching love to makan (eat in Malay) and you could be forgiven for thinking about food all the time. Malaysians enjoy eating out and embrace food from different cultures.
There’s at least one cafe on every block. The cafes here are called kopitiam (coffee shop) in Hokkien. Every kopitiam carries not only drinks, it usually has stalls selling noodles, roti canai, chicken rice, etc. The prices are very reasonable. A bowl of noodle can be as cheap as RM2.50 (USD0.80). I am in noodle heaven!
2pm at Boulevard and it was still full house
My Sunday breakfast: seafood noodle soup & roti canai. It's totally fine to have noodles and curry in the morning.

Three of my favorite foods: noodles, soups & seafood.
So, it’s no surprise that I love fish porridge (congee) – thick rice soup with fish slices. I have been craving for it for a while now. Finally, on a chilly rainy day, my wish came true.
Fish porridge, so satisfying on a chilly rainy day. I like my soup steamy hot; burn my mouth kind of hot!!
Ingredients: fish (I used tilapia), seaweed, rice, water, ginger, onions, scallion, fish sauce, salt, white pepper, sesame oil, fried garlic
1 part rice: 8 part water
I didn’t follow a recipe. Most Chinese know how to make fish porridge by heart. The ingredients are totally flexible.
It would help if you have a pressure cooker. 
It cuts the cooking time in half.
Put the fish last because it cooks fast.
SO SATISFYING! I over-ate as usual!

Gotta love spring time. The berries are so fresh and sweet that they can be dessert by themselves.
Or, make smoothies, muffins, lassi, fruit salad; add the berries to pancakes, crepes, ice cream,… endless possibilities. Enjoy!
Strawberries, like candies, so sweet.
