Senarai Pasar Malam di Pasir Gudang

Pernah tak terbau ayam goreng wafting through the air and suddenly, BAM! You're ten years old again, clutching a crumpled RM10 note at the pasar malam? 🙋🏻‍♀️ Yeah, me too. It's like a time machine, but tastier.

We all know pasar malam is where you go for laksa Penang or nasi kerabu ayam bakar that's confirm sedap, kan? But it's way more than just food. It's a whole vibe. A happening. It's...well, let's just say it's magic and my sweet memory. ✨

Betul. Mana nak dapat:

1. A killer deal on a blouse, jeans and a bag of kuih muih segala macam makanan all in one place?
2. Witness makcik-makcik 😅 level bargaining skills that would make Malaysia's top CEOs weep?
3. Bump into your old school crush and pretend you didn’t see them. Reminiscing… reminiscing… (We've all been there 😉)
4. See three generations of a family 👨🏻‍👩🏻‍👧🏻‍👦🏻 flipping apam balik, kurasan, or even those crispy live vadai being cooked by the aunty and uncle? 
5. Feel that buzz of community? Well, with the influx of "foreign" workers, it feels like an international zone! Indonesian, Bangladeshi, Myanmar, Pakistani; anyone? 🌍🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

Seriously, pasar malam is where memories are made. Like, every Saturday when I was a kid, my parents would give me pocket money and take me. The smell of ayam goreng, ayam percik, corn on the cob… and putu piring! OMG, putu piring was my JAM. And the comics! Dragon Ball, Dr. Slump, Pahlawan Naga, Detective Conan, Doraemon… I bought them all at the pasar malam. It was the weekly routine.

And get this – even now, I live about 30 minutes away, but I still go back when I can. They don't sell comics anymore, but that pakcik and makcik putu piring is still there, same face, now his kids are helping out. It’s crazy! It’s like a living, breathing time capsule. Best-best! 😎
