These stalls only come out in full force in the evening tho. The usual crowded place with the hawkers busy cutting , slicing , & mixing their precious cargoes. There is always the heightened excitement of seeing so much food in such a small area !But it was great fun , gawking at the delicious , then walking away to the next stall. Sometimes we buy this sometimes that , just ...
