(Bernama pic)ALOR GAJAH: Election fever may be building across Melaka, but in Kuala Linggi, another kind of buzz is drawing people in - plates of horseshoe crab cooked in a range of rich, spicy gravies.
At Restoran Citarasa Belangkas, owner Azizi Buyaman serves the unusual seafood in several styles, including masak lemak cili padi, lemak berempah, sambal and asam pedas.
The recipes come from his mother, Fauziah Yasin, who began developing them more than three decades ago.
For Azizi, 33, the restaurant grew gradually from a much smaller operation. About 10 years ago, he began selling the dishes on a modest scale and delivering them to customers.
