Top Spot- Hands down the best seafood in the world! Nothing else comes close
I like to think of myself as a person who knows his seafood pretty good. This is one of the first things I try when I get to a country that has an ocean and I am anywhere near the ocean. I do not know how many countries I have tried different types and ways of cooking seafood, but I definitely do not want to try to count. In the US, there is different places known for their seafood, and one that comes to mind that is my favorite is the Bay Area in San Francisco, which was my favorite seafood in the US and my favorite in the world is different countries like Greece, South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Japan. These were my favorite seafood countries and I have my favorite restaurants in each place, however the following place blows the rest of these away….
Top Spot in downtown Kuching is not what you would call a restaurant but about 7-8 shops that sell fresh seafood. People enter, pick their table and order from that stall with more types of seafood than you can imagine. It is not enclosed; it is a rooftop area in which more than a hundred tables are packed in.
They have just about anything to drink that you want there including beer and fresh juices which you pay for as they come, so that your food bill is only SEAFOOD!!!!
The two shops that we frequented the four times we went was Shop 25 and Ling Loang Seafood. Both of these shops are located on the opposite side of the main entrance toward the end. In my opinion Ling Loang Seafood is the best one there. They have enough space to move around, and their service is excellent as the lady knows exactly what you order if you are a returning customer. They have every type of fish you can imagine, plus prawns that make anything sold in the US look like canned baby shrimp. The prices are very reasonable as you can stuff yourself senseless for about 15 USD (not including drinks). You pick what you want and how much of what you want
They cook everything to order. If you want your shrimp grilled, fried, boiled etc, they can do just about anything. The fish they serve can feed a family and it is very well de-boned and you can even pick your own vegetables to have them fry up or serve fresh. LITERALLY THEY CAN DO ANYTHING.
