Went to a shop called Poh Seng that sells water heater at 153, Jalan Besar. A plump lady of 50+ years old reluctantly attended to us. From the very start she was unhappy serving us. When we asked a few questions about the water heater, she pulled a long face and answered rudely. I was so pissed off with her attitude that I left the place without buying anything.
Since it was raining, we proceeded to a stall that sells Indian food near Rowel Road off Jalan Besar. We ordered the roti prata and teh halia. After that we went to a coffee shop that sell the crispy handmade noodles. Curious, I ordered the noodles (3rd picture from top) and was disappointed with the taste ($5.20).
Many hawkers these days are amateurish and can't even cooked decent food. Some even employ China people to cook and sell local fares. In Penang, the government does not allow foreigners to cook and sell the local dishes.

We were at Chong Pang around 5pm to buy some fruits but found ourselves eating desserts and Hainanese Chicken rice. We ordered the chicken rice because we were curious. The queue was rather long at 5pm+ and so I queue up to get a plate of chicken breast meat with rice. We think many patronised this stall because the food is cheap and good. The chicken rice I ordered was $2.50 which is one of the cheapest in Singapore. It was tasty, value for money and the staff was nice and polite.
