THE EMPTY BAZAR RAMAADHAN..

It's Saturday, and people already started to head back to their kampung already for raya.. highways are jammed up with people.. while KL starts to loose its meat since yesterday with less and less people in it.. I went to PARAM Bangsar today, and it clearly shows.. takdak orang dah.. this is one of the most crowded PARAM in town, and when people dah start balik kampung, this is how it looks like here.. may be tomorrow they will all bungkus and balik kampung too already..
Hurmmm.. I wonder how is it like to celebrate raya in KL? must be boring sehhh.. Uwaaaa.. nak balik kampungggggg tomorrow!

RAMADHAN BAZAR @ BUKIT GOH, KUANTAN

Two days spent in Ganu, and it's time for me to head back to KL.. I can see the sad faces of my parent's face the moment I wanna leave the house.. but they are coming to KL next week so we will have our buka posa together again..

It was a freaking 8 hours journey to expect this time.. and with posa time, the earlier target was to reach Temerloh for berbuka.. but since I saw a very busy bazar @ Bukit Goh, Kuantan, I decided to stop to see the special local food here..
Pretty much the same food as the rest of other bazar.. the only different food that I can find here is the coned kuih.. which doesn't taste that good.. saw a rather thick murtabak.. but can't take it anymore since my berbuka meals are usually filled with murtabak and sugarcane.. got myself putu bambu and lompat tikam..

well..nothing special at the bazar here.. and the food isn't that variety.. only ok-ok je la if one wanna make a stop to buy things for berbuka.. Next berbuka stop.. Temerloh R&R..

RAMADHAN BAZAR @ TANJONG, K.GANU

2nd day of puasa at ganu, went to the bazar in Tanjong.. which is located in front of Istana Maziah, near Pasar Kedai Payang.. lots of stalls open for business but not so many people compared to the one in Cabang Tiga bazar.. but the place is more organized and cleaner.. I noticed that the ayam golek is the trend now.. almost every other stall sells the same thing.. in which most of them looks the same.. not that attractive at all.. come on guys.. be creative and let ur product outstands the others..
Anyway, I was still with my mission for a good nasi Dagang.. as the one I had yesterday was rather frustrating.. so I managed to find a few Nasi Dagang stalls, and bought one each for tasting.. pelahap kannn! hahahhaahOnde2 is a must.. nekbat and pulut lepa anyone? Nice bazar to visit by the riverside.. a must go bazar for good food!

RAMADHAN BAZAR @ CABANG TIGA, GANU

At last, I managed to find time to go back for berbuka with my parents.. They have been asking me to come back and berbuka with them this puasa.. and this is the time for me to visit the food bazar and get the local delicacies..
First location is BR Cabang 3 which is featured almost every year.. located in Losong, this is one of the big and established bazar where lots of people get their berbuka food here.. so many variety of food sold here I feel like I'm spoiled with choices already.. definitely better and bigger than last year.. with more varieties of food more.. and they even have a special row only for the drinks.. all sorts, all types.. u name it, u have it.. heheh..
but first thing to find.. nasi dagang.. and managed to buy one from this blur makcik who persistently asked me to get her kuih to replace the 50cent that she didn't have.. with her pure ganu accent, i didn't even understand what she's trying to say.. and at last she gave me this 3 karipap worth 50cent. whatever la makcik..
Bought lots of kuih.. murtabak, jelly, pau ikan, pulut lepa and all sorts of local food.. can't wait for berbuka with the family.. best2!
p/s: lost all my photos taken @ BR Chabang 3.. aduhhhh..

RAMADAN BAZAR @ PUTRAJAYA

Gosh.. it's a huge Ramadan bazar at Putrajaya, in front of MoF building stretch.. one of the biggest and most variety food bazar ever.. no use talking.. check it out for yourself.. definitely worth it!

RAMADAN BAZAR @ KINRARA

A must go place to buy food every year.. probably because it's near my house.. and another factor is because of the food variety here.. Again.. similar photos like last year.. from rojaks and ice cendol to a brother with a cowboy hat that sells asam laksa, and nasi ambeng stall.. lots of food sold here.. but i like this one place that sells superb nasi tomato.. sold by this brader putih near the sales office.. I'm a fan of this nasi tomato.. another place for good food.. one will not regret!

Bazar Ramadhan @ Chabang Tiga K.Terengganu

The first day of Ramadhan falls on the weekend, thus is a perfect time to break the fast with family.. I went back to Ganu for berbuka with my parents, and visited the Bazar Ramadhan @ Cabang 3 to get some kuih for berbuka.. this year's bazar isn't that happening as last year.. may be because of the financial crisis, and more people opt to cook rather than dine out.. got myself a must have, Nasi Dagang and couple of kuih called Pulut Lepa.. Wel, it doesn't matter what we have for berbuka.. some may have a simple dish, and some may break the fast with the whole world of food piling up the table.. What matters is the family gathering to celebrate the Ramadhan's joy.. it's a bless!

Bazar Ramadhan @ Sungei Besi

The Bazaar Ramadan or PARAM (stands for Pasar Ramadan - as suggested by Mr. Beruang Madu, hahah!)in Sg Besi has been a must place for me to visit every year.. not only because it is quite near to my house, but also because of the food varieties that they sell here..This year, I guess the varieties if kuih and meals sold here are even more interesting, with many dishes to choose from, and many people still favors this place to spend their money for food, despite of the current economic status nowadays. Let's check out what's cooking here..
The grilled chicken, puasa style..the grilled fish.. looks boring! and the east-coast delicacies.. an d the famous roti jala.. cooked fresh from the pan.. The wide varieties of nuggets and hotdogsand kuih2 to choose from..
and I bought this kuih.. soooo sedappp Checkout the multiple colors of the drinks in the plastic.. so colorful.. notice Air Kathira.. a famous drinks amongst the Johorean.. I swear we talked about this drinks in the office.. and it appears suddenly at the Bazaar.. how bizarre..and undoubtedly the most famous dish almost every people will buy.. the Murtabak.. looks deliciouso here!Varieties of kuih also at the stall.. I bought one of this Lompat Tikam.. it's been a while since I last tasted the kuih.. and the triangle kuih called Samosa.. so South African sound eh? heheh!The varieties of Jelly.. funny looks of the jelly eh? and Kurma (dates) for berbuka as well.. Some just opened up the stalls.. while others already get the stalls up and ready for their customers.. when I looked back at those food and the freedom of choices that the Muslims in Malaysia have to buy for berbuka dishes, I'm so thankful to stay in Malaysia, to live in peace and harmony, and to fulfill my responsibilities to fast during Ramadan at ease and peace.. I'm thankful to you god for the gifts..
