    Ah, I miss Tau Chooi a lot too. Is Kwokie talking about the one in Genting (Hoon Teng) arh ? That’s my favourite. So end up what did Heow Hong eat ? I miss Penang food a lot. Here in Xiamen life is boring…… Except cheap books and cheap DVD…… ^__^

    Tomorrow: Beh iau keen lah. Wa beng pek. Anyway, the apom bokkua is actually known in Singapore as “Apom Berkuah”, meaning with kuah. So, he’s right. Might be a nyonya saying. But I didn’t know that. Thanks for our listener who told us. And to find that kind of apom. Go to Union Primary School. In front of the school, right next to the street is a stall that sells apom berkuah.
