Sarawak Laksa
Primary tabs
Sarawak Laksa is rice vermicelli noodles (bee hoon), cooked in a shrimp-based broth that is made to thicken with coconut milk. This dish is served with generous amounts of crunchy bean sprouts, a few boiled prawns and garnished with shredded chicken and slivers of egg omelet. For added spice and pizzaz, there's a thick sambal paste that is usually served on the side and a lime which you can squeeze into the dish.
You may request variances, such as substituting with thicker noodles and substitute prawns with meatball or other such customer requirements.

Not much attention was paid to their findings then, but now with the Miri field declining the old maps and charts were taken out and studied again.
