Kampua Mee


Sabah and Sarawak joined Malaysia in 1963. In many ways they still remain alien to most Malaysians living in Peninsular Malaysia. 50 years on, and Air Asia has made it very reasonale to travel to most parts of East Malaysia we see ourselves being exposed to a different culture. The East Malaysians are fiercely protective of their states. This is the second time I've eaten this mee. It's called "Kampua Mee". Despite looking insipid ( most mee is doused in dark soya sauce) it is very tasty. The red pieces are pork bits.
