Myst Cafe

Myst Cafe @ 101 Premier Commercial Center, a nice place to hang out with friends at night.

Why I say at night when it is opened from 1100 to 2300? It is because the cafe is warm at day time.

There is no air conditioner but some portable air conditional which are not cooling at all and some ceiling fan which are quite high above.

So basically, the cafe is warm on the day time. The conditions become better at night because there is no more hot sun. So you will feel a bit cooler there.

Besides the "not very cool" condition, everything else should be fine. The foods are very nice and the prices are reasonable. There are many games for you to play too. But I believe you will need to spend quite some time to figure out how to play all these games.

So now, let's look at some of the stuff that they serve. For you information, I might make some mistakes on the name of the food because the bill is not very clear and I don't think I memorized the look of the food 100%. So please forgive me.

Chocolate Milkshake. RM4.00. My friend say "nice".

Coffee Fiz???. RM3.00. Do not order this. My friend says it is terrible. Order at your own risk.

Berry Patch ???. RM4.00. I like this. But it is too sweet.

Potato Cup. RM5.00 for large portion. RM3.00 for small portion. I like this. The fillings(chicken) on the potatoes taste good. If you like to eat potato, I am sure you will like it.

Baked pasta??? RM7.00. Most of the food here are given 3 choices of chicken, lamb or beef.

Baked Cheese Rice. RM7.00. Not bad also.

Mince Meat Rice?? RM5.00. I chose lamb. You can also choose chicken or beef too, if I am not mistaken. Quite nice.

What what fried rice. RM7.00. My friend say not bad.

Beside the food that I have posted, there are still lots of snacks that taste very nice. I ate lots of them the first time I visited there but sadly I forgot to bring my camera. So, go and give it a try. I am sure you won't regret.

Delizze

Delizze, a bakery cum restaurant located at Premier 101 Commercial Center. I am sure many of the Kuchingites out there have been to this place before. As for me, this is my second time here.

For those of you who do not know what "Delizze" is, let me show it to you. As what I have said at the first sentence, Delizze is a bakery shop and also a western restaurant. At one section, you can buy all sorts of bread and cakes.

At another section, you can sit down to enjoy the nice but expensive food served.

The following are what we have ordered, their prices, and my review on the food.

Soup of the Day. RM5.50. Did not have a taste on it.

Chicken A La King. RM12.50. My rating: 6/10. The chicken too hard. The bread too hard. The sauce is nice. The French Fries are yummy. The veges are bad.

Chicken Gordon Blue. RM17.50. My rating: 8/10. The sauce is nice. The main food is just so so only, even though it can 爆浆.

1/2 Roasted Chicken. RM15.50. My rating: 7/10. The chicken is nice. The sauce is nice. The mashed potatoes are not so tasty. But most important of all is that the chicken is most probably just a 2 months old chick grown using hormone.

Hot Dog. RM9.50. My rating: 9/10. The hot dog is tasty. The potato wedges are nice. The bread is too hard. The veges are good for decor.

Fairy Cave

If you go to the Wind Cave, then you must visit the Fairy Cave as well. Even though I do not really like it, I still suggest you to drop by and have a look of it yourselves. Who knows you will like it? Fairy Cave is just less then 10 minutes drive from Wing Cave. Thus, since you have traveled so far to visit the Wind Cave, why not spend few minutes more to visit the Fairy Cave?

Not like Wind Cave, the entrance fee for Fairy Cave is totally F.O.C. The only "price" that you have to pay is to climb up this 5/6 stories high staircase.

After you have "conquered" the 6 stories staircase, you will reach the entrance of the cave.

Once you enter the cave, you will need to climb again. But this time, you will have to go through smaller and narrower path like the following:

Not only that, the path is actually dark like this.

So if you have the size of this, I would recommend you not to go or else, you will be stuck between the stair and the rock. Further more, please remember to bring your torchlight with you.

After you have climbed through the narrow spaces, these are almost all what you will see. Not much to see right? But of course, what you see from here and what you see when you go there personally might be different.

Finally, please be careful when you go there. The floor is slippery so make sure that you walk slowly and carefully. I really can't imagine what will happen if you fall.

Wind Cave

The "Wind Cave" or "Cave of the Winds" is a very popular local tourist destination close to Kuching. It is is located in the limestone area of Bau to the southwest of Kuching. It is about 5 km southwest of Bau. The cave is situated off the Bidi road which passes the Bau Lake. A new sealed road has recently been completed to the cave and the Sarawak River. A parking bay is situated adjacent to the river at the end of the access road from Kuching. Buses are available to Bau.

The Wind Cave was formed during the Jurrassic-Cretaceous period. Excavations by early explorers such as Beccari in 1865 have shown that people inhabited Wind Cave until recent times. Earthenware vessels, charcoal and pieces of marine and freshwater shells were found. The deep pits within the cave may have been made by gold prospectors in the 1930's. 

The major features of the cave include the stalagmites and stalactites, and pillars which form when these two join together. These are all common calcite formations. The minor features include floor cavities, pendants and current scallops. The limestone of the cave is pale grey or blue in colour and is fine-grained. Deposits of clay as well as thin layers of guano or rock phosphate are found throughout the cave.

The floor of the main passage has conical cavities which are separated by blade-like pinnacles of limestone. Stream erosion is evident by the smooth horizontal grooves in the floor and scalloped walls of the passages. These current scallops have a honeycomb appearance and indicate the direction of the flow of water. Another formation are the pendants which are limestone projections approximately 60 cm in length and which hang from the roof of the cave passage.

There are three groups of cave animals: the troglobites, which are restricted to the cave; the troglophiles, which live within the cave but can also exist in outside environments; and the trogloxenes, which use the cave for roosting but feed outside the cave.

Inside the cave, gastropods (molluscs) have been found on the walls and floor of the stream passage. These snails are unique to each limestone area. On the limestone mountain, 12 different species have been found, which include Opisthoporus rostellatus, Brotia costula and Gastroptychia adversa.

A variety of birds can be found along the river and on the limestone hill. Several types of bats inhabit the cave and can be seen hanging from the cave ceiling. The black nest swiftlets (Aerodramus maximus) can be seen and heard in the cave.

The above is some information that I have copied from Sarawak Forestry website. If you want to visit the website, just click on the link. If you are not from Kuching and have any inquiries, click on this link. But I tell you, I think it is more interesting for you if you continue to read here.

First of all, these are the pictures of the entrance.

Next, this is the customer service centre.

The entrance fee is RM3 for adults and RM1.50 for student, senior citizen, and disabled person. Children below 6 years old are allowed free entrance. If you would like to rent a torchlight, it is also RM3 per torchlight. So please remember to bring your own torchlight. As it is completely dark in the cave, you should really bring a powerful torchlight.

And this will be the map.

A closer look.

As you can see on the map, there are 3 different trails that you can start with. But actually, they are all the same as they are interconnected.

This is the entrance of the passage no. 1.

Next, some of the things that you can see in the cave.

So, these are all that I can show you. If you want to see more, you can go there yourself.

Extra information:

Make sure that your shoes are not slippery. It is wet inside the cave.

Make sure that you bring yourself a powerful torchlight. 1 torchlight per person.

Not littering.

No writing on rocks, trees and other facilities.

Love the cave.
