If you haven't been over to look, Wena has
written about some of the kinds of "kuih" that you can find in Kuching. (You might have to scroll down a bit; her permalinks don't appear to work on a post-by-post basis.)
There have been many occasions I've tried to explain what "kuih" is to my non-Asian friends, and have failed :) Sometimes you eat it for breakfast, sometimes for afternoon tea (or at least, in my family) after a siesta, or sometimes for supper.
Wena is also kindly sending over some sambal laksa. If there is only one sambal laksa manufacturer on Green Road, I think I know the one ... my mother used to buy from them directly. They are actually off Green Road, somewhere in the innards of the residential area. My geographical memory of the place is so blurred now that I'm not entirely sure which street it is on. I don't think the packaging has changed after all these years!
