Let's Go Mamak!

I remembered vividly the mamak sessions I used to have during the high school time. Ahh, those old good times which everyone misses alot!

But nowadays people tend to turn ChaTime, Snowflakes or any other dessert cafes rather than visiting the traditional mamak stalls. 

Just ask yourself,
how long have you not eaten
roti canai or maggi goreng with teh tarik?

As for me, my favourite food at mamak stall is no other than the Pasembur,
the fehmes Indian rojak in town.

A plate of pasembur consists of shredded cucumbers, potatoes, beancurd, turnip, bean sprouts, prawn fritters, spicy fried crab, fried seafoods, noodles and served with a sweet and spicy nut sauce.

The prawn fritters never fail to satisfy me when dipped into the specially-made sauce!

To my surprise, I have been to a roadside stall selling pasembur along with yong tau fu!
I think the fusion of Chinese and Indian food is the latest trend eh?

The tea session is never complete without a mouthful of ice kacang and cendol beverage!

It's perfect for the hot, sunny weather :)


Diversify your choice of food, and you'll enjoy them more :)
