Women Power

It is nice to see a night market stall operated solely by women, selling and replacing covers of various smartphones. The replacement of the phone covers and cases is not as easy as one would imagine.

While waiting, this lady customer with the tattoo, told me she got her ink done for RM450 at Sunway. I think tattoo artists should also set up stalls at the night markets. At the same venue, I saw a hairdresser with her own air-conditioned trailer.

No Smoking

Can’t miss the reminder when it is painted on the road. Jonker Walk is the tourist epicentre of Malacca, designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. This is a side road with food hawkers operating on weekend nights.

The China Burger

A relatively recent addition to the local night market, the China Burger is a misnomer. It is actually a burger-shaped pancake with neither buns nor meat patty. More like an egg muffin blended with a choice of real prawn, chicken, squid or seaweed fillings. Yumz.
