For the month of November and December 2009, I travel to Alor Setar so frequent and I got the chance to try out this Duck Meat Porridge @ Alor Setar Chinese Market.My colleague hometown is at Jitra, Kedah he brought me to try this and it taste good. Thanks to Wilson.

This trip is so happen that me, Ian & Wilson can get together for breakfast at Alor Setar and once we arrive, we order duck meat, pig intestine, duck wing, eggs and unfortunately no more duck head (sad sad).. :(

Open from morning till 12noon.


Duck meat


Pig intestine


Duck wing one of my favourite.


A plain porridge.

Have been long time didn't see this stall and guess what, because I stay at Subang Jaya and seldom see this kind of stall. Recently, I went back to my hometown at Penang for some Northern Region work task and I went to Batu Lanchang Market and saw this few stall selling the glutinous in many colours and if you lazy to cook, then you can buy the one ready and you can enjoy it NOW...


Tāngyuán is a Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour. Glutinous rice flour is mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water. Tangyuan can be either small or large, and filled or unfilled. It is traditionally eaten during Yuanxiao.

You see the uncle so happy while buying and I believe he is going to (tuen yun) reunion dinner with his family on the festive eve.


Choose any colour you want or you can buy all the colour in small portion then you can have a colourful glutinous ball.


I miss the old days when we were young and my mum always buy the raw glutinous and we make it ourself. I still remember when my mum give me some portion to make the glutinous ball round but i use the whole thing to make a BIG glutinous ball and i tell my mum, this is for you then i kena scould. My mum say you make so big for wat? Then i faster make again but this time i make it tiny little round and that is me. I did it purposely and i kena scould again this time by my dad and he say why you so (kuai lan in hokkien) and he also laugh.



Hope one day I can make myself free and go back hometown to enjoy the festival.

I wish all of you happy reunion with the family and hope you enjoy the Glutinous Ball.

Went to this kopitiam and try the red snapper mee hoon. You can choose either soup or tom yam. Both also very nice. Price is reasonable and the fish is fresh too.Located at USJ 16 below the flat.
