In June…

This was in June, the coffee shop, not the month. I went there real early on Sunday morning to buy breakfast for everybody in the house. The old couple were there and the Iban lady helper too – all were busy setting up the place and getting the things ready but no, the handsome young guy was not there yet. “He’s on the way,” the mum said, “he’ll be here soon.

This coffee shop is always very crowded but this stall is located in one little corner at the back and I could go there to order without having to go through the coffee shop, no worries whatsoever about physical distancing at all. Of course when people say that somebody is on the way, you may need to wait a while longer and it was way past 7.30 a.m. when he finally appeared.

Wasting no time at all, he got down to work…

…right away.

I asked for three plates of his char kway teow

…and that sure looked a lot more than what my blogger-friend, Phong Hong had that day except that hers had see ham (cockles). There is one place here where the char kway teow had see ham but I did not really enjoy it all that much so I never went back for more.

I would say the one here is consistently good all these years and the price is still RM6.50 a plate, the same as when I had it…

…in 2020, compared to RM13.50 for what Phong Hong had. *faints*

My missus said they were so generous with the lap cheong (Chinese sausages) and prawns while my girl, being a small eater, said that the serving was so big that she had to struggle to finish her plate of the same.

The old lady said that they also had fried kway teow with beef and fried bihun with their own-cooked khao bak (stewed pork). I sure would not mind coming back to give these a try some day.
