It was last Sunday. No cooking at home that evening as we planned to go out and eat.
But luck wasn't on our side that evening as it was raining like crazy when we drove out. By the time we reached Hui Sing Hawker centre slightly after 5pm, the rain was still pouring. We found a nice parking spot which was exactly in front of the hawker centre. A short walk to the centre and irregardless of the pouring rain, we spent time looking around and buying our takeaway.
Rain or not, there were customers waiting and queuing patiently for their food. Mostly were takeaway as seats were limited.
The only satay stall in the centre and we grabbed 30 sticks of pork satay (RM1.2 per stick) home. They sell lamb, pork and chicken satay but only pork and chicken satays were available that day.
While I went to buy kolo mee from another stall, Jan and her grandma queueing up at the stall next to the satay stall to buy fried noodles. Business was good for this stall as it took a long time for the order to be ready.
It was still raining in Hui Sing after we were done with our loots. And a slow drive home as jam and visibility was poor. By the time we reached home, the rain has slowed down.
Kolo Mee (RM5 each) for the boys. Looked and smell good.
My tomato kway teow (RM7) and Jan's fried mihun (RM7) from Stall 9 were quite big in portion.
Plus the 30 sticks of satay, we had a good and enjoyable dinner at home.
Today is 31 August, so wishing all Malaysians, Happy National Day!!
Happy national day to you and your family too. Raining must drive very carefully.
ReplyDeleteI love satays, esp. the lamb one. Hope you are having a great celebration!
ReplyDeleteIt seems Kuching is getting a lot of rain these days. Somehow or other, it is quite dry here in Sibu, just nice for us to go out and enjoy ourselves this week. School resumes next week. Tsk! Tsk!
ReplyDeleteKolo mee for just RM5, that's insanely cheap. Here in KK, kolo mee costs RM10 per bowl.
ReplyDeleteI always go Hui Sing cause my uncle is staying nearby and we always tapao pork satay, kolo mee and tomato kuey teow.
