Thanks guy for the walk around Petaling Street. Now, I know where to source for ready made leather and tools for the watch repairs....

We went twice to the central market to look around but nothing much happening around there....no 'new' items on displayed.....Then Peter and I 'shoot' off to summit - subang jaya. We saw some 'action' there with regards to a almost new Tudor submariner (plastic lens) tussle between the would be new owner......and the early bird won.....he just grabbed it and walk out of the door before we have had any chance to 'drool' over the watch....

Thanks for pointing out the stores.

yuk woo hin was not as good as it was. Those days, occasionally, I bought the baos from them on my way to the school as breakfast. Now it is famous becoz of the past deed. i know koon kei wantan mee. There was 1 time, I asked if my noodles are ready, they asked me if I want to eat raw. Damn it... those were the days or maybe now too.

I don't quite like lai fung beef noodle. I like the 1 in tong shin road. However,  they hv implemented alot of shortcuts to their preparation process to let their "indon" elper to serve their customers fast. The quality dropped.

Alwiz heard of this sei ngan chye salty duck. Is it really tat good?

I like this zhong wah hong chu cheong fun yeong tao fu n laksa. This store is very bz during lunch time.

Yea. Ban those rude hawkers. Last time it was difficult to spread the word but with internet the effort is halved. Anyway, but some rude hawkers sell damn good food (and sometimes even with dirty stalls) their patrons will still bear with them.

Oh yea the Peel road. My frenz brought me to the place once to try out. Not bad.

oic, many locals here with regards to food galore, esp at the petaling st area.

I am fortunate enough to at the Petaling st area - yesterday morning and went straight to that mini wet market - where those rude hawkers are; and managed to try the meat ball soup. But if you ask me, they are so-so.
