Chinatown-No more

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 23 January 2009 in People & Portrait.

Every year this time,folks will be queuing up to buy bak kwa(barbequed pork) for family and friends. I saw this man putting up a notice to tell the long queues of folks that bak kwa has been sold out.Yet the people didnt budge.I wonder why.Maybe they were prepared to wait till tomorrow!

You should check out Woodlands loop or Woodlands link for the wholesale items, including bak kwa. Next time, I shall just buy the stuff from there. More savings. :)
