Delizze @ Premiere 101
Shin Yi and I went to check out Delizze at Premiere 101. It’s that corner place with the giant banner hanging on the side of the building for so long, we didn’t think it was gonna happen. Didn’t take a great deal of photos because someone else will do it anyway; I just felt like photographing food.
Delizze is part deli and bakery, and part restaurant. Over in the bakery is a a selection of various gourmet breads, pastry and cakes. The deli has things like salami and ham, as well as salads (ready-made) and sandwiches to go. The croissant sandwiches look pretty generous and are below RM5. The mini pies are about RM3 and the raisin danish I got was RM1.50. Very reasonable. Also quite delish.
The restaurant section probably needs a bit more work and time, unless you’re willing to put up with slow service and unavailability of certain items. Here’s part of what we ordered (since I forgot to photograph the cream of chicken soup):
Above is the Roasted Beef Sandwich and below is Pasta Marinara. You have the option of medium or well done for the beef (I picked well done), and fettuccine or penne for the pasta (SY picked fettuccine).
The presentation of the pasta was surprisingly messy for a place so posh. I’m not particularly fond of the salty metallic flavour but this is not the first time I tasted it. I suspect I’m just not really into tomato-based pasta at the moment.
The Roasted Beef Sandwich was unremarkable until you add the black pepper sauce. Then the flavour really pops and makes it worth your money.
Drinks selection are of standard western concept restaurant range.
I walked out of the place with the receipt but managed to lose it. The pasta was about RM18 and the sandwich about RM12.
Delizze is halal, so the salami and ham and stuff are of the non-porky variety. However, Butcher’s Kiosk is just in the next block…
Kuching Food Bloggers Gathering @ Village Fast Food
Francis, who introduced kayaking to Kuching, have gotten together with some friends to set up Eating out in Kuching (Eat OK). Their first event is a food testing event at the newly opened Village Fast Food, opened by the people who brought us Green Bento.
You’ll need to RSVP because they are issuing Entrance Coupons.

Timez Coffee & Crepes
Among my personal “Why isn’t this in Kuching yet?” questions is a little Miri-born cafe called Timez Coffee & Crepes. Their speciality is the paper-thin crepes which is filled with all sorts of delicious goodies like fruit and ice cream and folded into the shape of an over-sized ice cream cone.
I can understand Miri having certain edges over Kuching, but when I found Timez in Limbang, I was almost hopping mad. Then I ordered the most sinful thing they had on the menu. If I’m only going to have this when I visit another part of Sarawak, I might as well make it worth my while.
