CHOWRASTA: Morning Market Stroll

Penultimate Day!

After our excursion to Hin Bus Depot we pretty much stayed home and ordered in. My fever got a lot worse, but several rounds of paracetamol soon took care of that.

It then rained heavily in the evening, further cementing our desire to stay home.

Today however was a different story. Not wanting our second last day go to waste we woke up bright and early, leaving the Green House at 8am.

Brendan did not join us as he pulled an all-nighter playing an online game with his international friends.

And by the way, did I mention that it's Cat's birthday?

We took a short walk to Chowrasta Market and had breakfast at the very place from our first morning here, the Old Market food court. This time Cat tried the Kueh Teow Thng from a different stall, while I stuck with the Western stall.

We settled on:

Cat's Kueh Teow Thng for RM5.50
My Western breakfast for RM5.50
a round of drinks for RM4.00

Our simple breakfast came to RM15.00 (approximately USD/EUR3).

As we strolled out of the Old Market food court several snacks stalls caught her eye, and Cat promptly got:

2 rolls of Chee Cheong Fun for RM3.00
a set of 4 cream puffs for RM7.00
a box of Sweet Potato Ball for RM3.00
a box of Malaiko Kueh for RM3.50

Our additional snacks came to RM16.50 (approximately USD4/EUR3).

We then took a stroll along the morning market before exiting onto Jalan Penang. We walked across then headed southwest where we eventually turned right onto Jalan Phee Choon.

Here we witnessed a long queue of at least 20 people lining up at the Hutton Lane Roti Bakar. We continued northwest along Jalan Phee Choon then turned right onto Jalan Transfer. We walked across and onto Lorong Popu, and got home.

Stay tuned as I take Cat on a special luncheon for her birthday!
