Famous Taiping Fried Kueh Teow

After we left Hayley's place, we went to the Casual Market. On the way, I spotted this fire station. I remembered I did a research about the fire station when I was at the college. It brought back sweet memories.

Taiping fire station

 
the Casual Market

Smile..You are on candid camera!
I ordered the famous fried kueh teow from this stall.

love the ingredients

she used a kind of leave for wrapping the kueh teow

packed..
I bought 14 of those packets..
 for my staff, workers and family

I ate there..
yummy..

my mum just enjoyed her Hailam Chicken Rice.


When I reached home, I ate another packet before I went to work in the evening. Later at night, after work, I ate yet another packet which my BIL didn't want to take it.

I simply love the Taiping fried kueh teow!

    that was an intersting and eco friendly way
    of packaging, some stores here will just
    put it on plastics

      This casual market has been closed for a month about 2 months ago, for renovation. So now it's nicer and cleaner.
      SK, you have to make a trip here, really lots of nice and cheap food.

      SK, you should come to Taiping to taste this type of only Taiping famous style CKT, you can't find it in KL or SIBU. If you find also, it won't be as nice as Taiping one.

    I asked some hawkers before about using leaves to wrap. They told me that it could allow the food to "breathe" and that makes the food tastier too with added fragrance from leaf. You believe?

    I miss the 60's CKT where you find rows of charcoal stove with CKT men sitting in a small folding stools frying CKT and the aroma can be sniffed across the bus station, and it only cost 70 cents a plate those days. So with 1.00 ringgit you can have a plate of CKT and ice kachang for 30 cents. Can we have the 60's back please.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
