Pukis Mini Pak Thamrin is a roaming mini pukis (small, soft Indonesian cakes) vendor in Pekanbaru, usually found in front of Pelita Indonesia Campus, Jalan Ahmad Yani, selling 8 pcs for Rp5.000.
Selling mini pukis for 28 years, since the price was 25 rupiah! Meet Pak Thamrin, originally from the Mandailing people, who says he has been selling mini pukis for about 28 years.
He used to sell in Siantar City, back when the price was still 25 rupiah per piece. After moving to Pekanbaru and selling pukis here too, the price became 100 rupiah per piece. But now it's Rp5.000 for 8 pcs.
The pukis cakes are a bit bigger than usual mini pukis, with a soft texture, savory from the butter brushed on and sweet from the batter plus chocolate sprinkles on top.
Come try it too, BroSis!
