Being a tourist in my own city (II)

Filling the tummy

Living in the city, there will never be a worry about the lack of food.. (only the lack of money).. Food in the city wasn't exactly cheap.

Jalan Alor is a famous food street with rows and rows of food stalls. Since it is famous, the customers were mostly foreigners who don't know they can get the same food for a cheaper price at Imbi which is 15 minutes away. I walked the stretch of food stalls at Jalan Alor and got a number of different prices for their food.. all were unreasonably priced.


Grilled sting ray = RM12 for half


Chicken wings = RM2.20 per piece


There was another stall which sold a piece for RM2.50. I asked why so, and they waiter said, "Oh, ours is fresh chicken wings whereas the RM2.20 ones are frozen."


Pork noodle soup = RM7 per bowl


Then there's also food at Sungai Wang Complex.

There's this noodle house which serves yummy duck and not too shabby dim sum. I had that for breakfast.
