Shopping for Breaking of Fast menu

Today ( 6/9) is the sixth day of fasting for the Muslim community at Bintulu. Went to the Bintulu Esplanade to shop for some food for breaking fast. My style now is to choose a special menu each day. Today's breaking fast menu : roti kebab ( in the tradition of Arabia), barbequed fish, Penang laksa.

Bintulu Esplanade turns food fair

On the first day of Ramadan ( 1 /9 )  I went to Bintulu Esplanade to check out the large varieties of food, drinks, cakes etc to bring home for breaking of fast. Above is the late afternoon crowd .
These foodstalls are an annual phenomena in Malaysia where the fasting month of Ramadan  is observed  and the breaking of fast calls for a good quenching of iced drinks, fruits ( especially dates from Arabic countries) and local culinary delights. Now I find a good intermingling of races of various faiths at the food fair and this augurs well for Malaysia.
