Food : Kelabit Style

on August 23, 2009

Food in Miri is somewhat simpler – mostly Chinese style, but recently there have been some influx of Malay, Indian and cafe style cuisine.

But there is one thing that Hubby and myself really enjoy here – that is, local cooking – Kelabit style. These are just simple day to day cooking – meat, fish, and local vegetables. We love it! I do not know how to explain it but it is just simply divine !

Simple yet to-die-for dishes - clockwise from top: 'Mani chai' with egg, smoked/dry cooked fish meat, chicken broth with 'bunga kantan' and braised pork
