Hey Guys, Sorry for the Delay...

     I have been so busy for the past few weeks, so I want to say sorry if any of you were waiting for my next post. Actually I am planning to post some pictures of Malaysian traditional attires but I am kinda on a high fever right now so taking pictures of stuff outdoors is not an option. Anyhow, I really hope you guys can wait a little longer and be kind enought to wish me a fast recovery from this fever.
Have a nice day...

Night Market @ Pasar Malam


The small alley where the 'pasar malam' was held
The alley is kinda empty because not many vendors were there
     In the area where I lived in, we have (As most area in Kelantan has) night market or as we call it, 'pasar malam'. It is usually held on weeknights such as on Friday or Saturday night. there, you can find varieties of things sold by the vendors at very reasonable and negotiable price. And the best part is....(drum roll please...) the FOOD!
  

My bro, choosing the food he would like to eat for dinner
We can choose the stuff that we would like to put in the steamboat. the vendors will steam and then pack them in a plastic bag with the delicious sauce
p/s; those are my bro's hands
Drinks and beverages were also sold there at reasonable prices...

   Oh yes, the food sold there are super awesome. There are varieties of food to choose from, ranging from fried to boiled. Since Malaysia is a multicultural country and a melting pot for various cultures, different types of food have emerged and all contributes to the unique flavours of Malaysia. In the night market, the vendors sell Malay, Chinese and Indian food regardless of the identity of the buyers. We all love to eat the same thing.
    
These guys are geniuses, they're producing masterpieces in three uniques (and huge) pans.
Wanna see what's the smoke is all about?
This is what they've been cooking in one of those giant pans.
Fried noodles with soy sauce or as I call it 'Mee goreng'.

    To give my readers (if I have any) more insight into the 'pasar malam' culture, I have included some photos in this post. Unfortunately I can't post many photos due to the time I was photographing the night market scene, many of the vendors were still on holiday after the Eid. So, only a few set up their stall. Nevertheless, I still want to post this few pics just for you guys.
Enjoy....
