RM Inga Raya
Rumah Makan Inga Raya
A long-established seaside Bengkulu restaurant north of the old town, where you can try rarely found traditional dishes such as taro-leaf-wrapped fish pendap and shark curry bagar hiu.
Located by the sea on Jalan Pasar Pantai north of the old town (around Bencoolen Road), this is one of the few restaurants in the city that consistently serves traditional Bengkulu dishes. The signature is pendap, spiced fish steamed in several layers of taro leaves. Other dishes include bagar hiu, shark meat cooked in a rendang-style spice blend; tempoyak udang, prawns stir-fried with fermented durian paste; and gulai lepang cendawan, a mushroom curry. The shop is plain and feels like a local family eatery. It opens only during the day and is closed at night, so it suits a lunch visit. It is about 2 km from Fort Marlborough.
