Our Road Side Episode..

"Why did u all dump me and went off?" Lynn's voice over the handphone, I can imagine her pouting lips when she called us...

Story like this: 4 of us supposed to go for lunch at 12.50pm... 3 of us waited for Lynn to come down from office but she never did. We called her hp endlessly, no reply, we called her office phone, no reply, then we waited at the car park till 1.10pm, no sign and call from her. Then we shot off without her, thinking that her BIG boss must have "summoned" her and discussed about work. Half way driving, she called us and asked why we dumped her... lol...

Cut story short, knowing we could not "live" or "eat" without her, we took a big round and came back to take her out. She explained her "disappearance" to us, she was in the toilet "pumping" out her excessive milk...lol... OK, story ended....

Our lunch was spent at the road side , Off Maxwell Road, the place famous for their pasembor, (indian rojak), mee goreng (fried noodles) and some malay snacks as shown below...


see the blue chairs? we sat there to eat..
on-lookers looked at us...
we didn't give a "da...m"


this is the famous stall...


the ingredients


the outcome of fried noodles...
fantastic!


his famous pasembor
indian rojak... best!


we bought some fried jackfruit back
(cempedak)


we couldn't resist some malay kuehs as well..


we bought some popiahs..
still hot and crispy...


singapore pau-s
with sambal ikan bilis (anchoives)


sardine puffs...
crispy too ...

So...this was our lunch, we shared among one another
we tried varieties and not quantities :)

  8. The fried noodle looks so yummy! Really making me hungry. Sometimes those road side stalls make better food than those high class restaurants. I had once tried to call my colleague on the handphone and knock on the hotel door for more than 15 minutes but still no answer. He called back after half and hour and said that he is sleeping and didn't hear...He really sleep like a pig as our noise knocking on the door might wake the other room people already. sigh.
