Not as good as the ones in Kemaman, but suffice to satisfy the cravings for real east coast Sata.

It's delicious compared to the one in another place. when we eat this sweet we know it comes from Kelantan and Terengganu. It remains the tradition. sata is wrapped in banana leaves and baked on a coconut shell, the taste and smell of the aroma are evident. Don't forget to also try the Oatak Oatak, it's no less delicious, full of fresh fish. The price for sata and otak otak is compatitive and worth it
