After breakfast, we went to jonker Street for a walk. Uiks....they have Flea market during the weekend wor.
The cars caught my eyes but Mamarazzi said see only, cannot touch coz it's fragile.
Mamarazzi said long time never saw this "tikam" thingy.
A lot of Tembaga (Brass) thingy here. Papa say got brass kettle and
asked the man got brass wok/kuali or not. Uncle Arthur looking for brass
wok. The man said don't have. Even the brass Kettle cost RM300! Of course....it was hand made and no other material was added when they make it. Unlike the Brass nowadays which mostly "polluted" by other tin/ore.
Being the new generation, I was very puzzled by this "device". How come
their "CD" so BIG? Where is their computer? Just put the small "CD" into
the computer lah...
Before going off from Jonker Street, we stopped by this stall and bought some Nyonya Kuih from this man.
Didn't get much of anything from Jonker street . Just two pairs of chopsticks with our surname. The third paor got it from the night market. RM4 a pair. Can buy 3 items for RM10.
Then Mamarazzi went to Bibik House and "borong" four containers of Pineapple tarts. Her favourite. Hmmm...if not mistaken price had increased to RM14 for 20 pieces.
But it's worth it for Mamarazzi as she said the taste not too sweet and they are generous with the fillings.
Moreover, She love the textures of the filing which is not too mashed up. Yummm.....by now two containers of the tarts have gone into Mamarazzi's tummy lor
Sometimes I can find things I want at flea markets and sometimes, not so much. Your pineapple tarts sound delicious... Glad you got some chop sticks also.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Hugs,
Betsy
The pineapple tarts are heavenly...yummmm
DeleteI like to eat pineapple tarts too but now I do not buy any because I do not want to be tempted to eat (as I can eat many pieces at one go). The pineapple tarts all eaten by Mamarazzi? Small Kucing did not help to eat?

DeleteI love this post. It brought me good memories when I stayed in a Melaka's hotel FOC for 1 week while my friend had to do some banking security job for their branch. I walked the whole Jonker Street everyday and ended up broke! I bought so much antiques. I even found a shop selling Strawberry Jam tarts that was sold out everyday by 2pm! Crazy!
ReplyDeleteFree stay become money spending mission lo.. strawberry jam tarts ah...hmmm...not really gila about that. can eat la.
DeleteHey my dear botak, your new banner looks very beautiful and contemporary! Your mum so pandai with cameras! Did she use the antique filem kamera to snap it?
ReplyDeleteUse hand phone to snap ler. the sky light ngum ngum was turning purple...just a few minutes. not enough time to take out proper camera
Deletei don't quite recall myself browsing in the flea market and jonker street, haha!! first, i don't really go to Malacca often.. second, i think everytime going there also quite rush cos day trip mah..
ReplyDeletehahaha, small kucing so poor thing lah.. everything "can see but cannot touch" only.. so mamarazzi didn't buy anything for small kucing at all?? but she bought two tubs of pineapple tarts and wallop everything~~
Deletethe chopsticks look nice lah.. got your surname as well as the chinese zodiac printed one ah?? then quite personalized woh, can buat hadiah from that hor??
DeleteThis is first time mamarazzi saw the morning flea market. seems the. traders ther also know about flea market in amcorp mall. over heard one trader boast his ware cheaper than those at amcorp.
Deletewhat two tubs? Four tubs ah....makan two tubs already.
ya got surname but tarak know zodiac. good for gifts if only know fren's proper Chinese surname. had a hard time looking for own surname. lucky mamarazzi have the chinese name in her phone.
