It has been a very busy and interesting week. I've written elsewhere about the Tua Pek Kong Temple procession and our Kai Joo Lane foray.

But there have also been another couple of informative events:

dragons
Learning about dragons on Sunday...

text
... and about cetaceans on Tuesday

Plus some more rain...

water
A full river, and the tidal flow is still heading upstream...

And -- of course -- there has been more good food, simply because this is Kuching:

rojak
Nam Joo's classic fruit rojak. I'm a bit wary of rojak, as it's sometimes too sweet and gloppy. Nam Joo's is neither. Big tick

kantin1
This is Kantin's mushroom salad bowl with terong asam

kantin2
And their tasty chicken chop with crispy tapioca leaves and a good sambal

laksa
A nice variant on laksa from Yi Ann, another kopitiam that's nearby but new to us

yiann

fishporridge
Fish-filled porridge from Fu Yu

croissant
And Windmeal now do pleasantly crispy kaya-and-butter croissants. With half-boiled eggs, they're a nice variant on a classic Malaysian breakfast

And finally, the rest of the week's gallery:
