London-based academic, writer, and podcaster Anna Sulan Masing explores the intersections of food, drink, politics, and identity.

Kuching

"The coffee they make is incredible. They also do a lot of work with local farmers, collecting and roasting local coffee."

Earthlings Coffee

"This was my dad's favorite restaurant and the laksa there is really good."

VeryNice Restaurant

"It’s an incredible food experience. Fancy dinner vibes. They’re doing really fun stuff and looking at how to preserve a lot of different things, reimagining traditional flavors or local ingredients."

Roots Restaurant

"If you want to do karaoke, and have a bit of fun and just get a bit drunk, there's a bar called Thai Bistro. It's got good drinks, good karaoke, including local, Iban and Malay karaoke. So it's super fun and a bit silly."

"It's a space where Dayak performers and artists can be, perform, and create. It's very exciting. And they have this world music festival there in the summer, which is great. It's packed and a really good time."
