A Kuching breakfast route feels different when it follows a family recipe. At Goh Cafe on Jalan Rubber, cucur udang carries a story that began at the old Rex Cinema in 1967.

Goh Thing Chai now leads the family business at its newer premises; the family previously operated near the old Satok market for 45 years before moving when the lease neared its end.

Coffee and warm ABC accompany the fritters, but cucur udang remains the signature order.

Start with the prawn fritters and their chilli-and-nut dip, then see how this old Kuching favourite fits its new Jalan Rubber setting.

At Cafe Cafe on Jalan Rubber, the choice is not between local comfort and international food; the restaurant was built around putting both on one table. Cafe Cafe began in Sibu in 2003, and the brand now describes three Sibu restaurants and two in Kuching. The Kuching branch carries that expansion story into a former carwash setting on Rubber Road, where a broad fusion menu is part of the proposition. I would start with Beef Rendang or Nyonya Kapitan Chicken, then add a Western dish only if the table wants to compare. Public descriptions point to substantial portions designed for sharing, while a May 28, 2026 visitor review found choices for a large group and mentioned nasi lemak. The strength here is flexibility, not a single signature bowl. Plan this as a relaxed lunch or dinner for families and mixed groups. Public listings give 11am–11pm hours, but parking around the Rubber Road shoplots can be limited. Cafe Cafe fits a group where some want local, Thai or Nyonya food and others want Western comfort.
