Kelapa Bakar

Since WS Pang was in town recently and during the Wesak holidays, we took him and his wife out to try some kelapa bakar. We got there thanks to directions from our friend Roger.
Hmm...sorry for the blown background. Heheh

The coconuts are 'cooked' in a metal drum for around 30-45 minutes...looks disgusting

Ready to drink.

This batch will be made into coconut jelly. They will pour the agar agar inside and cool it.

Lokan. Some kind of shell thing.

Lokan panggang.

And the finished product. Ginger is added into it and it is served with a lime+chili dip.

At the end of it all, it was probably a mistake to drink kelapa bakar at 2pm on a very sunny afternoon. We were the only ones around who probably ordered the kelapa bakar at that time. Anyway, some things are worth trying at least once.
