Miss Ng once told me of a special chicken dish called inchi cabin. Her friends from Kulim, Kedah would always order that when they came visiting and would even packed some home for the family. I haven't heard of the dish; haven't tasted it and had even thought that it was a Japanese dish when actually, it was just a Nyonya-styled fried chicken dish which used a variety of spices such as fennel seeds, clove etc, marinated with coconut milk to give it a rich flavour and twice-fried, to make it incredibly crispy. On Sunday, some relatives came for lunch and one brought along a hundred ringgit worth of inchi cabin.
