Probably Sabah’s first non-Chinese to operate a chu cheong fun stall side-by-side with Chinese hawkers
December 2nd, 2008It was reported in a local paper on 1st December 2008 that Michael Rumadson, 37, a Dusun ex-fishmonger from Kota Marudu is probably Sabah’s first non-Chinese to operate a chu cheong fun stall side-by-side with Chinese hawkers in Kota Kinabalu.
His stall is located at the hawker area in Damai Plaza Phase 4, Luyang.
He has been operating it for 3 months.
Chu Cheong Fun is made of steamed rice flour rolls and a mixture of fillings inside.
He learnt all about the Cantonese dish from a master chef from Hong Kong when he worked for 4 years at a Chinese restaurant in Kuala Lumpur more than 4 years ago,
He was reported to have said:
- business is good;
- capital: RM3,000+
- He starts his day at 5pm.
- He can sell 70-100 servings a day.
- He currently serves 5 types: BBQ pork, prawn, shrimp, minced chicken & Chinese sausage filling.
Apparently his chu cheong fun tastes “as good as those prepared by the Chinese, if not better.”
Going to try it soon!
…but need to remind self to keep to a limit, otherwise Fentraphen beckons…
