Here is another famous Malay hawker foods - Kueh Udang.  With special chili sauce, Prawn cake (Kueh Udang) will taste more delicious.  It is almost same like ‘Cucur‘, but Kueh Udang is ‘harder‘ compare to ‘Cucur‘.

Tampin, Pulau Sebang here had a shop (branch) that sell ONLY Prawn cake.  It can sold 500-700 Prawn cakes daily.  The shop’s name also easy to remember – Kueh Udang Alor Gajah, and the HQ is at Alor Gajah.
