The other way…

If I go one way coming out from where I stay, I would be heading towards the town centre…but if I go the other way, in the opposite direction, I would be heading towards the area known as Teku…and along the way, opposite the Catholic and SIB churches and the Chinese cemetery beside them, there are many new blocks of shophouses. One of the major supermarkets around here have opened a branch there and this is right beside it…

…just round the corner from where Annie-Q‘s mum lives.

I wouldn’t call it a food court though as it is to me just another coffee shop. There is the regular kampua noodle stall and one selling roast chicken and duck rice…

I saw two Malay stalls, one selling halal kampua noodles…and I noticed that the fried version was on their menu. I sure would like to go back and try the kacang ma chicken with rice at one of the stalls there and there was another one that sells dim sum and some deep-fried stuff though from what I saw, I did not think there was anything I would like.

I think there is also a chu-char place at the back and there would be chap fan (mixed rice) around lunch time but what attracted me when I was there that morning was what was stated in front as “handmade fish balls” (RM5.00) at  this stall…

I settled for that but I was kind of disappointed when it was served…

Those fish balls certainly did not look like they were handmade – they were simply too perfect and so very white that I was pretty certain that they were those frozen ones that one could get from any supermarket…and if they were, in fact, not freshly handmade, I would consider it to be somewhat expensive.

Thankfully though, it tasted very good…

For one thing, I love clear soups and I did enjoy dipping everything into the chili dip which was very spicy and to my liking.

I would want to go back there again should I be heading that way but the next time around, if I choose to go for this same stall again, I would probably order the pai gu mee (pork ribs noodles) instead – I saw somebody having that and it did look quite good…and incidentally, the coffee was not too bad either…so that is one point in their favour.
