Empurau Fish Dinner



We are fortunate that we went back Ipoh last weekend. We enjoy one of the most sought after fresh water fish called "Empurau". So far, Empurau is most expensive fish i have ever heard of. It can be sold as high as RM1000 per kg in East Malaysia restaurants. The species of this fish is only available in East Malaysia. It is expensive because it is so rare. The fish only consume fruits, flowers and plants as their food. I read about it in The Star paper somewhere last month.

I thought that i will be able to try out the taste of this fish in the next few months when in visit KK with my family and also my in-laws family, but, i am truly fortunate, that my family members bought it from somebody who send it over to us by MAS. Unbelievable!

We took the fish out to one of our family favorite restaurant and had it there. In' fact, my family already had one fish the day before at the same place, it is just that i requested that i wanna have the fish again when i back, they again, give in, dining at the same restaurant the next day. They are just too understanding and kind to me. Thank you so much!!!!!
