Sweet Dinner?

The pasar malam (Malay: night market) is, as I am aware of, a part of Malaysian culture. Not that I am a frequent visitor. It is only on nights like this that we would treat ourselves to the food there,giving our usual eating habits a break.

We drove to the night market area, found a convenient parking spot (rare occasion), stepped into the crowd and voila, dinner was only steps away.

Everything we picked reeked sugar. The lok-lok was good, so were the dim sums. Just that we're not used to drizzling sweet sauce over our dinner. Let's not go to the kuihs and taiwan pancakes. After making that one full round at the pasar malam, we decided that our stomachs can't take another sugary shot.

Occasional indulgence, we told ourselves. Though the next time we visit another pasar malam won't be too soon.
