Kedai Kopi Teck Wah Heng (another quieter part of Jonker Street)

When I was schooling, this used to be one of my favourite shop for breakfast. I have not visited this place, I think for more than 5 years.

Yummy soft pork slice coated with flour

This shop is famous for their soft pork slice (flour coated) cook in Bakuteh’s soup. Instead of serving with claypot, the dish is served individually with yam rice. You can opt for just pork slice or have your soup mix with intestines. Per serving is Rm5 (they add your bakuteh soup generously when you ask for soup refill) and each bowl yam rice is Rm1. Although it is crowded, I see that most patrons are local (good that it’s not discovered yet…*nyek…nyek…nyek*)

Inner garden of Hotel Puri

After breakfast we send the boys home and put them to sleep. Once they were knocked off, we continue our food hunt at Jonker Street (ok, we are not that *tong chiak* actually, just that by then it was noon already so it is time for lunch again). Since it was a Public Holiday, Jonker Street was very crowded. Not wanting to look for a side parking at the roadside, we went to a paying parking lot and walked to Hotel Puri (since QQ wanted to see where Yue Niang lives - place where Little Nyonya drama series was filmed).

It is really a beautiful hotel comprise of 3 long houses where the middle house was demolished and converted into an open air garden / restaurant.

It was extremely hot. A good time for a icy cold cendol. I heard from my brother that cendol and laksa from Jonker 88 is good (hmm..don’t remember this place existed during my schooling day so they must be new). This shop has the most crowd in jonker street (sorry, there will not be anyone to serve you, so you can see people queuing under the hot sun, waiting for their turn to carry their cendol/laksa into the shop themselves) so hubby had to queue while QQ and I squeezed into the extremely narrow shop to seek for a seat (you need to come in a Gang so someone queue while some go wait for table).

Crazy or not the crowds inside Jonker 88 Cendol Shop

I tell you, it was IMPOSSIBLE to get a table! There were already so many people standing at each table waiting so I decided to just tapau the cendol and eat else where. Forget about the laksa….

Opposite the shop along the extremely crowded walk way

And the above was where we stop by and eat our Cendol. So pityful eh??? Normal Cendol is Rm2 and Durian Cendol is Rm3. Well, worth it because the cendol is really nice. Even my proud-to-admit hubby also agreed!

After trying out some nice shirts opposite the shop (too bad I was too large that none fit nicely into me), my handphone rang and mum called me saying that the boys were awake. We quickly walked to our car and drove back to Ujong Pasir to eat at our favourite place instead (check out later this another crowded place situated a bit out of tourist area, but luckily not discovered yet by tourist, hehehe….)
