When in Miri one shouldn't miss the opportunity to sample some birds' nest. Initially most of the birds' nest were cultivated from the famous Niah Caves. In recent times, traders have set up bird houses to the same effect, and the nests are farmed after the nests had been abandoned. The nest is made by swallows using their saliva. This dessert is usually available in up market chinese restaurants, in most cases these desserts have to be pre-ordered.
You can buy them dried and pre-packed as sourvenirs from birds' nest shops.

To picture Miri when the township came to know oil, we have to project ourselves into a very different past. When the original Shell men arrived, it consisted of 20 scattered houses and a few shops. These included a bazaar, a gambling farm, a pawn shop and an Arab shop. The trade of Miri consisted chiefly of jelutong, brassware, belachan and budu.
