buka

The short introduction to a gamelan piece, generally played by a single instrument in a free rhythm, with the kendhang coming in on the last few notes to set the tempo.

A kangaroo-skin cloak traditionally worn by the Noongar people of southwestern Australia.

an inexpensive, quick, road-side restaurant serving Nigerian food.

I made a noncommittal noise and looked round the buka. It was a Saturday afternoon. The place was empty, with the bare plastic tables showing oil and grease stains.
