Ramadan Food Bazaar Part 2

30/09/07: Now this is at a different bazaar, different day.



Excuse the ratty sandals
















This bazaar is much smaller than the one before but it has 1 particular specialty.
Here's the line of people lining up for it.




































Keep in mind these pictures were taken at about 4.15 pm. So not only was it raining, people were queing for about 1 hour to get the damn thing, it was also about 3 hours before the time to break fast and they could actually eat













Anyhow, to show what they were queing for





























Yep, spring rolls.

Have to admit that they are nice. Personally, I don't think it's worth the effort but that's Malaysians for you - we take our food very seriously. Rumour has it that one of the former King of Malaysia specifically asked for this during his meals which gave the nickname 'Popiah Agong' (King's Spring Roll) for it





























If you notice in the last 3 pictures above, there's another line at the back. That was for this - a dish called lontong. Now these to me are worth the wait. I actually queued there after taking the pictures.
