Opens at 3.30 , waiting from 2.30

My goodness .

It is now 3.15 pm and there is already a hoard of people waiting to buy Nyonya kuih .

Doesn't matter if they were hobbling along on a walking stick earlier , doesn't matter if the standard has dropped ( sad truth ) , some of these customers were already waiting for the stall to open from 2.30 pm already .

Kheng nyonya kueh stall - Batu Lanchang

Surprisingly , there aren't many good Nyonya kueh stalls in Penang these days .With the emphasis placed more on profit and mass quantity, these morsels have lost the all important intrinsic gourmet appeal.

However , inside this foodcourt area of an afternoon wetmarket, there still exists a stall which is a throwback to the time when kueh makers still had pride in the final product.

And because the locals know it, my gawd, you could feel the excitement in the air when tons of aunties converged here and practically wiped out the stall like a typhoon had swept through ! Fact is, their quantities are limited...hence, the urgency of the mission.
This photo below is the aftermath....almost nothing left walaueh. As if it were all for F.O.C.
