So big…

That night, after Uriah See‘s live performance here in Sibu, on the way back to the car, I spotted these beauties (RM9.90)…

…each of them on a stick, displayed standing upright at one of the stalls at the mall…and boy, they were so big! Knowing how my girl loves sotong (squid), I asked her to buy one to try and enjoy for supper. She was reluctant at first probably because it was getting late and she did not want to hold me up and make me wait but I kept persuading her and in the end, she relented.

She just bought one that night and I did try a little and yes, I would say it was very nice and at that price, I think it is not expensive at all. If you order a plate of fried sotong at some Chinese restaurant here, for sure, it would not cost anything less than RM10.00 and if you put all those little pieces together, I am pretty certain you will not get one sotong this big.

When I went to fetch her from her school last Monday, she mentioned that she would like to have that again but we had already driven past and I did not want to turn back amidst the heavy traffic. That was why, when I went to get her again on Friday, I made it a point to stop by and let her go and buy all that she wanted.

To give you an idea how big it was, it was actually around twice the size of my girl’s hand…

…just imagine that! And this was the L size – I wonder how big the XXL (RM13.90) would be.

This used to be a Japanese place selling those boat takoyaki and stuff like that but it looks like they are now going into some franchised Taiwanese street food as well…

Frankly, I am not a fan but I have to admit that I did enjoy this very much!

If you spend more than RM30.00…

…you would get this big pack of orange juice…

…enough for two, at least, on the house.

I wonder what the PLU in the receipt stands for but that last one, RM4.50, was probably the inoki (mushrooms) that my girl finished off in the car on the way home so I did not get the chance to snap a photograph of those.

The one at the top would be these (RM11.90)…

…deep-fried squid stuffed with rice and cheese and/or whatever (tasted like curry) with a squiggle of honey mustard on top…

I thought this one, in comparison, is a little expensive especially when you do not get one whole squid – I wonder what they do with the tentacles…and besides, it was not really to our taste so we did not enjoy it as much.

If you’re a local or you happen to be in town, perhaps you would want to drop by this megamall here to check this out at a stall there.
