We took a quick breakfast at Chowrasta market before our walk. Wantan mee, Kuey Tiao Teng, Chee Cheong Fun and ended with a walk down the street to get some APOM ~ a simple mini pancake of flour and eggs, 6 for Rm2 (it used to cost 3 for Rm1 2 weeks ago). I once observed a well-known local conservationist and hotelier sitting in front of his boutique hotel cafe having APOM for breakfast while he prowl over some reading materials and I thought, that's a great way to start a day.
While we wait for the APOM store owners to start their business for the day, I saw Uncle in his usual stance soaked up in the bustling activities around and I asked ~ do you feel that by observation, you are communicating with what's happening around you? He said 'somewhat like that'.
As we walk the street parallel to the Chowrasta market (@ jln kuala kangsar) at the request of Uncle to avoid the crowd, I asked Uncle the question ~ was this place used to be crowded, until the young adults leave to work elsewhere? He said 'Yes' and Campbell street 新街 was most crowded amongst the streets.
As we walk along, I noticed the signboards of shops that we visited for chicken rice or to buy locally produced biscuits and I took a pic of it before the next wave of change sweep by.
