Kiasu Drink

This is the weird, kiasu drink - 5 Layer Teh C Peng. I used to have Teh C when I had my meal in Kuching. I came across the 3 layer Teh C Peng last year. (brown sugar/palm sugar + evaporated milk + tea). And now they came up with something new, which sounds more canggih - 5 Layer Teh C Peng which comprises Brown/Palm sugar, Wheat grass syrup, Evaporated Milk, Cincau and Tea. Errr... Weird taste. I definitely won't order this drink again in the future. This will be the First as well as the Last time :) I still prefer the normal Teh C (tea with evaporated milk & sugar). Simple is good, and Simple is still the Best ...

Luckily the mouth watering popiah saved my day. I love the popiah (from one of the food stalls in the Lao Han Jia Food Court (老行家) or Expert Foodcourt in Jalan Song, Kuching). This popiah tasted much (x5) better than the ones I had in Penang. Love the crunchy little chucks of peanut inside the popiah. Love the taste. Finger Chopstick licking good.. Tasted superb when dipped with the accompanied sweet sauce. RM 1.70 per popiah but definitely worth the money.

Pssst.. Pink Cotton, I won't piak you with this yummy, mouth watering popiah :P Cos it is wasteful to do so. I will piak u with other cheaper not so delicious popiahs. LOL

Hehhe, I thought you are a coffee person :) One kaw Teh C Peng for MayMay.

The popiah were so delicious that I went back there another time for 2nd round. I will go back there for more next time (hope the stall is still around)

cocka,
My itchy hands asked me to stir the drink woh… still liao what to do? No time machine to go back to the past :D

If can pee in 5 colours, then can made into the World Guiness Record liao.. LOL

selba,
There are several popiah stalls here in Malaysia but most of them taste so-so only :) There are popiah stalls behind my working place too.

Chen said...

ah nel,
The 2 layer one is still the best, that’s why I say simple is good :D

Every night go there yum char? U stay nearby that area meh? Apa pasal go there so frequent? Might be we passed by before in the past, hahahha.. cos I went there two or three times in the night during my last trip :P

Didn’t try the steam peanut but tasted the kueh chap there previously.

robin,
Kiasu is not confined to Singapore… It is now a widespread “disease” :D

kyels,
it looks good, and it tastes good too. Two thumbs up.

Chen said...

cooknengr,
One of the best popiah I ever tasted :P Love it..

Winn,
How about a virtual popiah? Feast your eyes temporarily :P
I also wanna eat popiah now.. but I guess I have to put my thoughts behind and eat economy rice instead :(

day dreamer,
The RM2 popiah I guess it must be nice too :D Must be Ipoh punya popiah I presume? ;)
