Eating places are mushrooming all over Miri with new cafes, restaurants and watering holes springing up almost every month. With competition rapidly increasing, it is getting tougher to run a successful café or restaurant. But there is one food court that is doing extremely well since its opening earlier this year.
I am talking about Lung Meng Café. Its name in Chinese (龍門客棧 ), translated as Dragon Inn, is the title of a 1967 ground-breaking wuxia movie starring Polly Shangguang Lingfeng, Bai Ying, Miao Tien and Hsu Feng.
Lung Meng is beyond dispute the biggest food court in Miri with almost 20 different stalls selling a mind-boggling range of food including Foochow, Hakka, Hainan, Cantonese, Muslim, Orang Ulu and Western.
You are spoilt for choice. Apart from the usual dry mee, Hokkien mee, fried kueh teow, laksa, dim sum, nasi lemak and chicken rice, you can order delicacies such as fa mian bing, dumplings, pancakes, radish cake, umai, pansuh, nuba laya and other less common dishes.
Lung Meng is located near Boulevard Commercial Centre just before the Bulatan-Pujut roundabout if you are driving along Jalan Bulan Sabit towards Pujut.
too hot,not suitable place fore oldman like me
It was very hot in the center, but we picked a table set up at the food court’s edge so it was not too bad. Thanks for the recommendation!
