Terengganu's most famous culinary product is the keropok lekor, a thick hot dog-like sausage entirely unlike the thin deep-fried crackers called keropok elsewhere in Malaysia. Keropok lekor is made from fish paste and sago palm flour and should always be accompanied by a reddish-brown dipping sauce of tamarind, chili, sugar and vinegar.
Much good inexpensive food is to be found in coffee houses kedai kopi along roadsides in villages, and of course in cities. And do not miss the chance to buy some of Terengganu's delicious fresh fruits in any of the pasar bazaars in the cities and larger towns.
Nobody seems to be quite sure if it's legal or not, but turtle eggs are widely sold in Terengganu. They're a threatened species, so think twice before you indulge.
