Big Bottle might sound like a watering hole, but it springs one intriguing culinary surprise: Zao cai fen gan, the Foochow speciality of mustard greens fermented in red rice wine that's beloved in Sarawak's Sibu town. Served soupy with thick vermicelli, pork and prawns, this is a piping-hot bowl that's hearty, punchy and tangy - the perfect rainy-day pleasure.
Borneo-inspired artwork adds to Big Bottle's East Malaysian vibes, though instead of tuak, craft beers line the chillers.
