| Success derived from family's fish head soup Posted: KOTA BARU: Although the fish head soup dish does not come cheap, with a price range of between RM25 and RM70 each, it is a meal popular to break fast with for many during Ramadan. Nik Mohd Nor, who runs a restaurant selling the dish at the Medan Ikan Bakar along Jalan Kuala Besar here, is always out of fish head stock due to its popularity. He said that the secret of his fish head soup lies in the recipe his grandfather Syed Deraman had passed down to him. Nik Mohd's family has been using the same recipe for the past 50 years. "We have a tried and tested method to make the dish using fish like senangin, bawal and siakap.It is a secret and all I can reveal is that it is mixed with 'kulit kayu', 'pelaga hindi' and other spices. "I believe my grandfather had tested everything in the market to come up with just the right taste over the years," he added. He said the price of the dish was quite expensive, and although many shops were selling the same type of soup, some customers were disappointed with the taste and had felt shortchanged. He claimed that the price fixed by his restaurant was right as they had many repeat customers. "I can vouch that anyone who has a taste of our fish head soup will not be disappointed with the money they have to fork out," he added. |

| Crane topples and crushes van in Bukit OUG Posted: KUALA LUMPUR: A van parked by the side of the road was crushed by a crane that toppled over while lifting steel bars. Nobody was injured in the incident, which happened at the Kiara Residence project in Bukit OUG here at about 4pm on Monday. The van, belonging to a plumbing company, was parked opposite the entrance of the construction project while its occupants were at work inside. The crane blocked a road across the Shah Alam Highway, connecting Taman Yarl to Bukit OUG, forcing residents of the neighboring apartments to make a detour in order to get home. Another crane arrived shortly before 8.30pm to lift the fallen crane, which was removed after two hours. |
