I’m not exactly certain where sotong sumbat came from. Sotong sumbat literally translates to stuff squid. I first came across sotong sumbat when having lunch in a mamak restaurant in Kuala Lumpur.

I immediately found the dish to be rather delicious hence ordered more. Later did I realised that I have been slapped with a 20 ringgit (ringgit, malaysian currency) lunch bill. Boy was I gutted that day. Thereon, I learnt to be more carefull when ordering sotong sumbat.
