They are still using the old black chopsticks with all that &#39;flavor&#39; soaked in. But as you know with all Penang hawkers, closing one eye isn&#39;t enough. Better to close both...<br /><br />Reese &amp; Mark<br />(yep, that&#39;s me seated on the bangku)Reesehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01307326284643101198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504664842956591641.post-19128400214412822002011-05-15T03:17:39.254-07:002011-05-15T03:17:39.254-07:00Great tasting curry mee.A bit on the sweet side but then again most Penang hawker fare are guilty of adding sugar to their soup base. Only gripe I have is the lack of thorough washing of the bowl and chopsticks.I can live with that if only they used plastic chopsticks that I can wipe instead of the black wooden ones that soak in everything! call me fussy but that&#39;s what I remember! That must be you in the pic enjoying the meal!stephenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978011054470200884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504664842956591641.post-85007465211535428402011-05-06T20:45:58.681-07:002011-05-06T20:45:58.681-07:00Thank you Han Chuan! <br /><br />The aunties are definitely past retirement age, but I don&#39;t think they would be happier doing anything else. The purpose and joy of cooking and chatting with their customers keeps them going every day. <br /><br />Stay tuned - next post is about a school lost to the jungle at one of the highest points in Penang.Reesehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01307326284643101198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504664842956591641.post-92085705541462928242011-05-06T07:47:26.055-07:002011-05-06T07:47:26.055-07:00Captured perfectly! It is sobering to notice that the two aunties have aged since the last time I contorted myself onto one of those &quot;bankus&quot; and had a bowl of curry mee. Your blog is very well written and the photography is amazing.Han Chuan Ongnoreply@blogger.com
