Sarawakian Local Delights: Sup Paku Uban
The shop cooking this lovely soup also served the usual Iban style smoke house barbequed meat. It was a family outfit. The mother Margaret was a good business woman.
We ordered some slices of barbequed meat and two good ikan keli.
As she also cooked vegetables, we were glad to have this sup paku uban and some cangkok manis stir fry.
The little corner shop was well patronised and soon it was all filled up.
The sun set quickly and darkness overwhelmed the place. We were glad that they had their own generators to provide the electricity.
As we ate Margaret came around and chatted with us. It was sad to know that she would soon have to close her outlet. But where she would go next she could not tell us. She was still looking for a good venue.
We have found her place very cosy and friendly. She and her family had done a good job and her cooking is excellent.
