Order: Kompia (Foochow 'gong pia') baked in a charcoal oven, plain or sesame

Sibu's other icon after kampua: little Foochow buns slapped on the walls of a charcoal oven so they come out crusty outside and soft inside. This old bakery is the one food guides and Sibu-born chefs send you to; eat them warm, split and stuffed with pork.
