Sekinchan For Seafood
A friend of ours had a hankering for duck mouth clams (mentarang in Malay) and since hubby and I had never tried them, he invited us to join him in the search for some mentarang.
So during the weekend, we headed to Sekinchan and made a stop at Pak Din Mentarang Bakar and had almost opted to drive elsewhere when we saw that they had no mentarang stock but were later told that mentarang was not in season at the moment.
As we were already there, we ordered what was available instead.
While we waited for our seafood, we were served with cut fruits topped with ice.
Curry ikan sembilang ordered from a neighbour shop.
and coconuts for everyone to enjoy.
and the aftermath.
Not a single clam was safe from consumption. Haha
It was an enjoyable early dinner for us, more so as our friend foot the bill! ^^
Thank you for the treat! ^^
