Corallium @ Kuching

The reason i started this place is BCOZ i get 50% for first visit with this "WOW card, wakaka, cheapskate. This cafe is rather easy to find, located in the heart of kuching - leboh wayang, just opposite the "STAR cineplex" medan pelita, exactly rite in front of the "wayang street chinese temple - 凤山寺". Easiest way is to get into carpenter street and park your car at the end of the street and the cafe is just on your left. The corallium cafe is a THEMED restaurant whereby it is inspired by corals, has an oceanic and tranquil ambience, with additional decorative items like seashells and corals, giving a kinda uncerwater feel.

Simple menu.


This cafe serves western food like steak, spaghetti, salads, soup and snack. The specialty of this cafe is actually chocolate fondue which is like a hotpot that you can dip the infredients (you'll be getting fruits like banana, star fruits; marshmallow, cookie stick, few scoops of vanilla ice-cream) with hot chocolate. The cafe consists of 3 sections, front & back seperated by its small bar in the middle; 3rd section would be the 2nd floor (they close most of the time).

This is the front compartment.


This is the mini bar in between the front & back sections


Beverages wise, they have a variety of coffee, tea, ice blended mocktails, juices, smoothies, SODA, hot drinks. It has free WiFi, board games, cards, plenty of OLD mags for you to browse through while waiting for your meals to be served (which will take u ages! seriously). I've been there twice, hmm, i took about 30 mins ++ for 2 steak, SLO CHEF ei!

When a MELAKA boy eats KUCHING food!

Gosh, i spent 1 hour to search for my own blog, its was almost 95% been forgotten, i read thru the blog and was surprise to find that the last post was Aug 2009, its 2 years ago, MAN! IRON MAN! cant even believe that.... that was the last post before i got sent to kuching to work, 2 years, "SNAP" just like that, now, the director of hospital insisted me to stay another 2 years, pretty shitty man, 2 yrs followed by another 2 yrs, when will it end.... i must admit that it's a damn good training, maximum hands-on, i've meet great boss, crazy boss, robot HO, GODlike HO, legendary HO (BYJ), Indian Inc HO, junior HOs. It was never a blank page everyday. I've eaten kuching food at every single corner with sutenn for the past 2 years, we drive, we walk, as long we get to try NEW menu, it was one of my only few activities in kuching as she never likes mothernature -_- ... since i'm stuck here, i might as well talk about the food here, afterall i've 2 years experience of "makang makang" in sarawak.
